About

Built by a creator who's figuring it out too.

I'm Matthew, an amateur photographer and a firm believer in capturing life's precious moments. I built PressRecordOnLife for people like me who want to press record but don't know where or how to start.

Questions

I've never made a video. Is this for me?
Yes. The library starts from zero: what to buy, how to find your angle and how to get comfortable on camera.
Do I need expensive gear?
No. Everything works with the phone you already have. The Gear Starter Kit shows what to add, and when.
Which bundle should I start with?
New to vlogging: Start Here. Already posting but want better videos: Film & Edit. Want everything, including growth and income: the Complete Library.
How do I get the guides?
Right after checkout you'll get a download link by email. They're yours to keep.
