Here is an comprehensive guide on how to film the keyboard with an overhead angle. I go over the details of my setup, and also try to recreate the look using lower budget options. None of the products are sponsored, nor do I recommend them specifically — there are many products similar to the ones I use that get the job done. The most important factors are having a wide angle camera lens and a tripod.

Here’s a link to the products I show in the video:
