How to Build a YouTube Set (Low Budget Studio for Beginners – Cheap!)

Film Jams is giving you a sneak peek of our new low budget Youtube set design for the new year and giving you tips on how to build a Youtube set yourself that reflects your brand and personality. For the past year, our main set has been an old couch, with three bulky brick set pieces as the background. We’ve been thinking of ways to update our look and decided to go for a more modern approach.

Our new set upgraded our old couch for a sleeker, more modern one. Instead of having a big backdrop that takes up a bunch of space in our studio, we replaced the back with 3D wall tile pieces that we really like the look and utility of. These 1 by 1 square pieces can be customized a bunch of different ways. They come in white, which we are going to keep, but they can also be painted or accessorized in other ways. There were also only $50 for a set of 12, making them a pretty cheap way to upgrade your set, or even your home!

We also chose these tiles because we wanted to incorporate more lighting into our set. Their 3D design looks impressive with different colored lights creating shadows and texture on our new wall. Since the wall is white, we can also customize the color of the wall for each episode to keep it fresh.

Changing up your set every once in awhile is a great way to make your Youtube channel more interesting and starting a new year is a great time to make the change. If you have any other tips for low-cost Youtube set design, let us know in the comments below!
