🔥 Ulanzi MT-84 Magnetic Tripod Stand: A First Impression for Content Creators... That Magnetic Snap!

I recently got my hands on the Ulanzi MT-84 Magnetic Tripod Stand.


Here’s a quick breakdown from my unboxing and testing: 





First Impressions & Unboxing


Right out of the box, the MT-84 feels solid. It’s compact and lightweight, which is what you need when you’re on the move. 


Setup & Features


The setup is fast: 


- Extend the Legs: The tripod base is sturdy and provides a stable platform. 


 - Telescopic Pole: It extends to a good height, 1.53m, giving you flexibility for different angles, whether you're shooting from a desk or need a higher perspective. 


- Magnetic Mount: The magnetic connection is strong and secure. My phone snaps right on, perfectly centered. No more fiddling with clamps or brackets. 


Testing it Out


I used it in a few different scenarios: 


- As a desktop tripod: Perfect for shooting talking head videos for my tutorials. The adjustable head makes it easy to get the angle just right. 


- As a handheld selfie stick: When collapsed, it’s a comfortable and stable handle for vlogging. The grip feels secure in the hand.


- On-the-go shooting: Because it's so quick to set up and pack up, it’s ideal for my content creation system. 


For fellow entrepreneurs and content creators, especially those who rely on their smartphones, the Ulanzi MT-84 is a fantastic piece of kit. 


It’s a small investment that pays off in speed, convenience, and the overall quality of your video content. It simplifies the technical side of things, so you can focus on what really matters: your message. 


What's your go-to piece of gear for creating content quickly?

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...
