StudioControl Founding install · Charlotte

5 founding spots

Your own video studio, installed at your desk by me.

I'm putting StudioControl into five Charlotte offices at a founding price. I bring the full kit, set it up at your desk, and you record your first video before I leave. In return, you tell people what you honestly think of it.

Video never stops. Crews do.

Everything runs on video now. But a single shoot day costs $5,000 to $15,000, and it can take days or weeks to get the video back.

So the weekly update, Instagram Reels, and LinkedIn clip never get made.

StudioControl is a professional video studio at your fingertips.

  • Pay once, use it every day. After install, every video costs you nothing but the time it takes to say it.
  • Finished when you press stop. The layouts switch live as you talk, so there's no edit afterwards.
  • Widescreen and vertical from one take. Each recording comes out in both formats at the same time.
  • The same desk takes your calls. The studio you record in is the one buyers and investors see on Zoom.

The deal

You get a complete studio for a lot less than it will cost later. I get honest feedback and proof from real people using it every day.

What you get

  • Camera. Sony a6400 with a Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 lens, on a floor stand with a fluid head, running off wall power. An Elgato Cam Link 4K brings it into your Mac.
  • Light. amaran Verge Max 60W key light, clamped to your desk and set for your room.
  • Audio. Shure SM7B microphone on a low-profile boom arm, with an Elgato Wave XLR interface.
  • Control. Elgato Stream Deck, the one-button panel, and a CalDigit TS5 dock connecting everything to your Mac, plus every stand, arm and cable.
  • StudioControl software, licensed to your Mac. One button brings the studio up, switches layouts live, records widescreen and vertical, and runs your Zoom and Teams calls.
  • I install it. I set everything up at your desk, dial the camera and light in for your room, and tidy the cables.
  • Training on your own setup, so you've recorded something real before I go.
  • 30 days of direct support. Text me if anything is off and I'll sort it.
  • Optional: StudioControl Cloud for $39 a month, to send any video as a link in a minute. Not included in the founding price.

What I ask in return

  • A short video testimonial after you've used it for a few weeks. You'll shoot it on your new studio, so it takes five minutes.
  • Permission to film the install, so I can turn it into setup tutorials for future customers.
  • A 30 day check-in call I can write up as a case study.
  • Your name and logo on the StudioControl site.
  • Two introductions to people you think it would help.

How it works

  1. 01

    Claim your spot

    Check out securely. That locks in one of the five founding spots.

  2. 02

    We pick a date

    A quick call to book your install and look at your space. I order the gear and test every piece before I bring it.

  3. 03

    Install day

    About half a day at your office. By the end, you've made your first video on it.

It's a fit if

  • You need video regularly: updates, demos, content, and calls.
  • You work on a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or newer). The Mac is the one thing not in the box.
  • Your office or home office is in the Charlotte area.
  • You're happy to give honest feedback, good or bad.
"I've run a video production company for over twelve years, from local firms to Fortune 500 campaigns. The moment the crew leaves, the cameras stop rolling. StudioControl is everything I know about making video look and sound right, set up at your desk so you can make it yourself, every day."
