The following is what I'm using to film videos on my Youtube channel "Techie Architect".

Equipment Amazon link Usage
BOYA BY-M1 microphone A microphone connected to a laptop to record voice.
Logitech C922x Pro Stream Webcam Used for recording myself in Full HD 1080p 30FPS
Glide Gear TMP100 Teleprompter used with iPad so I can read scripts prepared before I shoot the video. I'm still evaluating this purchase as I believe I'm still not used to deal with a teleprompter.
Velbon EX-888 Tripod Tripod used in holding key light.
Ultra Compact Tripod Sturdy tabletop tripod with low hight capable of holding the teleprompter (Quite heavy) and Logitech camera. 
GorillaPod Small tripod for holding fill light.

Neewer CN-DC2 DC 7.5V 2A Switching Power Adapter Amazon link Power adapter for Neewer Dimmable LED

Lenovo IdeaPad L340 laptop Lenovo IdeaPad L340 laptop used in video shooting and editing

Software Usage
MS PowerPoint 2016 (Paid) Presentation software for preparing the slides.
OBS Studio v24 (Free) Used to record the screen of computer or PowerPoint, as well as myself during presenting.
DaVinci Resolve v16 (Free) Used to edit the recorded clips, and render to the final ready video that is uploaded to the Youtube channel.
AHD Subtitles Maker (Free) Used to edit closed captions, having a ready script makes this step a bit easy. I have made a video (How I am using AHD Subtitles Maker) showing how this software can be used.
Teleprompter premium (Paid) Software for displaying the transcript on the teleprompter so I can read it & not recorded by the camera. It works on the iPad (There is a new version working on Android as well released 25-Jun-2020) & works with teleprompter mentioned in equipment.


VLOG & Courses Creation youtube playlist of important videos I used to learn how to shoot, script, edit videos.

I hope this help someone out there.
