My setup is really simple:
I use an iPhone to film, using Stop motion Studio Pro, iMovie to edit, and a table for my set, a monitor to have a background (I display a sky or something and it works really well) multiple reading lights for lighting, and some paper for diffusing the light. And occasionally I use production crate for visual effects and music.
What I use:
Camera:
Canon EOS 800D
A regular 18-55mm kit lense
A vintage ultrasonic zoom lense
Vivitar Macro extension things
Software:
Capture: Dragonframe 4
Editing: HitFilm Express 16
Audio: Audacity
Other stuff:
Some $60 tripod
LEGO
Mini softboxes
Weird lamp from Ikea
Brickstuff lights
An LED panel thing
HP desktop from 2018
Loctite Fun Tak
Helping hands
There's probably more things I'm forgetting, but that's most of it.
