Editing Pinkio (section)

=== External Camera Recording Style ===
A notable trait of Pinkio is the unique recording type, which doesn't feature a screen recording of the gameplay, but rather a video of the screen of his phone is shown, taken with an external camera.

Most of his videos about mobile games feature this trait. Some of them even use the external audio, but he usually mutes it and manually replaces it with music placed over the video, depending on the level or event he's playing.

The main reason why Pinkio records his videos with this method is because, when he started recording Rolling Sky videos, his phone was unable to handle an internal recording app, so he used to borrow his older brother's phone to record the gameplay for all the levels. A showcase of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJOUQB1pWy4 Pinkio's recording place & video editing methods can be seen here]. Even though Pinkio has got better phones by now, he got used to this recording method since then and still uses it, as it eventually became a recognizable icon of his channel.

Another reason why he uses this recording method is to show his hands' movements while he plays, so it would be easier to understand which movements he does at any part of the gameplay. This was inspired by some of [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMUjsRW1LlU&t=9s SHAvibe's videos of Rolling Sky] and the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRiURueMSsc Glory YT's videos of Piano Tiles 2].  The Pinkio's gameplay testing [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTcyn0ES5gU Rolling Sky on Nintendo Switch] is also recorded with an external camera due to this same purpose.
