You've probably heard of Mikey Angelo,pure sensual eroticism the creator with over 7 million followers across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. He's best known for crafting catchy songs that cleverly weave in his deep knowledge of pop culture and current events.
And if you've seen his videos, you’ve definitely noticed the bucket hat. He wears one in nearly every clip — and now has hundreds stacked in his closet.
At VidCon 2025's Meta Night Out, we caught up with Angelo to learn more about the tools he uses to create the content we can’t stop watching.
Angelo uses a basic tripod he bought off Amazon, but it plays a key role in his workflow, especially when he's on a tight deadline.
"If I'm like 'Oh, no, I have a draft due today that I haven't filmed, and I'm not at my regular place, my [mini tripod] always comes in handy," he said.
All of Angelo's videos are shot on his iPhone — no fancy camera setup here. And yes, he uses the front-facing camera. "I always use the selfie side," he added.
This is where the magic happens. "I do all of my production in Logic," he said. "That's where I make all the beats and all the music, and I produce my vocals on it, too."
Then, he lip-syncs along with the tune when recording the video. For editing, he turns to the InShot app to pull everything together.
