I am a life long genealogist, but my day job is as a video professional working in all aspects of television broadcasting, video production and management. However, you don’t need to be a pro to do pro quality video. Here is really affordable gear to shoot your next family interview.

This is episode 12 of the educational video series Learn Genealogy, as part of the "In Search of Your Family Tree" show hosted on the Genealogy TV, YouTube channel.
