The starter stack

Start creating with free tools.

Record, edit and organize your first videos before buying more software.

Write a simple outline

Start with the viewer’s question, the demonstration and the takeaway. Keep a small board of ideas so recording time is spent creating.

Capture a clean camera or screen recording. Make a short test before recording the full video to check sound and framing.

Trim pauses, reframe the subject and review every caption. Use a consistent project template for your exports.

Keep a record of the topic, publication date and what you learned. Confirm current free-plan limits before committing your whole workflow.

This is a suggested workflow, not a tested ranking. Verify current plan limits, availability and licensing before choosing your tools.
