Whether you’re filming a corporate explainer or a startup pitch for investors, your gear matters—a lot. Poor lighting, shaky audio, or unbalanced framing can ruin an otherwise great story.
We've filmed dozens of pitch decks, demo days, and business presentations at Racool Studio. Over time, we’ve perfected a compact but powerful gear setup that delivers studio-quality video anywhere—especially in startup environments where time, space, and light are limited.
🎯 Why Video Matters for Startup Growth
A professionally produced pitch video is more than a presentation—it’s an investment in credibility.
It boosts investor trust
Makes your message clearer and more memorable
Helps you stand out in accelerator applications
Can be reused across platforms (LinkedIn, email, events)
In an age where attention is the currency, startups that leverage high-quality video stand out faster and convert interest into action more effectively.
🎥 Essential Gear Checklist
1. Camera Body with 4K Capability
Canon R6, Sony A7S III, or Panasonic GH6 — compact bodies with high dynamic range and excellent low-light performance.
2. Professional Audio Kit
Lavalier mic + Zoom H5 recorder or wireless Rode system. Crisp dialogue is more important than image quality in pitch videos.
3. Compact LED Light Panels
Soft, portable lighting like Aputure Amaran or Godox lights. Adjust color temp to match indoor office tones.
4. Sturdy Tripod + Fluid Head
A reliable tripod avoids shaky footage. Bonus: add a monopod for tighter interview angles.
5. Teleprompter App or iPad Setup
Helps startup founders stay focused without memorizing every word. Great for scripted investor intros or voiceovers.
📦 Bonus Add-ons:
Backdrop kit (black or neutral tones) for cleaner backgrounds
ND filter for window-lit offices
Boom mic for multiple speakers
At Racool Studio, we work directly with startup founders and corporate teams to film pitch decks, demo videos, testimonials, and LinkedIn content that reflects both professionalism and personality.
