5 Things content creators should buy during Black Friday

Black Friday is the best day for content creators to get discounted goods.

Black Friday is the biggest shopping day in the United States. Many shop for tech products, household appliances, clothes and more. It’s also the perfect day to find things for your content creation journey.

Here is a list of items you may want to purchase on the day:

Tripods

Tripods are one of the most important items for you to have in your content creation journey. Buying a good sturdy one from the start saves a ton of money down the line.

Best Buy is currently offering a Sunpak 58” tripod for $14.99 that is regularly priced at $29.99.

Cameras

Best Buy and Target both have good deals on cameras. In the business of content creation, it’s always a good idea to have at-least one professional camera. Rather it’s a hand dandy DSLR or a more lightweight vlogging camera.

Best Buy is offering the Sony ZV-1 for $649. It’s a vlogging camera for creators who are interested in creating crisp shots for TikTok or YouTube.

Storage

Having a hard drive is a must for content creators, rather you use SD cards, flash drives or hard drives. Storage is always a big thing if you are constantly shooting photos or videos for your socials.

I typically use a hard drive and a SD card to save all of my photos and videos on.

For $90 you can score a 5TB hard drive from Best Buy right now.

Tech accessories

You may often see content creators using things like gimbals, or camera shutters to take pictures. Here are a list of tech accessories that are on sale and will be useful during your content creation journey.

Microphones

Lavalier lapel microphones come in handy when you are recording a voice track. They create a cleaner audio than just using your phone by it’s self.

Amazon has wired versions for $12 or wireless versions priced at $29.99.

Shutters

Shutters are good when you are trying to take multiple photos at once, Amazon has a few on sale.

Lights

Make sure to check Amazon as well for lights that can attach to iPhones or tripods for better photos at night.

Phone gimbals

If you are trying to take your content to the next level, invest in a phone gimbal. It’s a video stabilizer and majority are $70 and up now.

Websites

Not all but some content creators like to have a website to show their work.

During Black Friday many website hosting sites like WordPress or GoDaddy offer discounts on their plans.
