Wanna Vlog like Casey Neistat?

One could argue that Casey is responsible for the vlogging explosion on YouTube. It's pretty easy to do, all you need is a camera and something to talk about. But, to Vlog like Casey, you need something interesting to do during the day and a cool way to get around while doing it...like a Boosted Board. If you're clever, you can make just about anything interesting...

You just need the right setting, good angles, lots of different shots and a quick transition between shots.  

Having the right gear also helps, here is what he uses:

First you need an expensive 4k camera so your video quality isn't an issue

Try the Panasonic Lumix GH5


Ideally, you want a camera with a fold out screen so you can see what you're shooting when the lens is pointed toward yourself. You'll need to pair it with the right lens: PANASONIC LUMIX G VARIO LENS, 7-14MM


If that camera is too expensive for you, try these...





Give these lenses a try as well....







 You'll need something to hold your camera. Casey uses a JOBY Gorilla Pod.
 Next comes a hip way to get around. A Boosted Board is your best bet. 



 If that's too expensive you can try a knock off, just hope it doesn't catch fire.


There is also the Hoverboard:


Or the OneWheel: 



A Casey video wouldn't be complete without some illegal drone shots. So, get yourself a good drone with a long range like the DJI Mavic.

Oh, don't forget your sunglasses...
