Reducing production costs without sacrificing quality.Any ideas?

Hello., My friend and I are starting a digital media company that focuses on creating content and sketches for YouTube and Instagram. We want our videos to be top-notch quality to really stand out, but we’re running into a bit of a budget issue. Even though we’ve managed to cut down on a lot of production costs, renting a high-quality camera and prime lens is still going to be pretty expensive. I’m reaching out to see if anyone here has any smart ideas or suggestions for reducing production costs without sacrificing quality? We’ve also been considering using an iPhone for shooting since they’ve got amazing cameras, but I’m not sure if that’ll work for what we need. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! Sorry I actually Chat GPTied the whole thing,because my English is not that great.y
