You might fair decently with this one.

​

https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-Gaming-15-6-Inch-Screen/dp/B071JPYP1Z/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=dell+1050&qid=1564842728&s=gateway&sr=8-5

​

It has a decent dedicated gpu (This is good if you use davinci resolve), a decent enough processor for video editing (just don't go balling on 4K footage, for 1080p editing it will be more than adequate though) and 8gb's of ram which is enough to start with. You can always add more ram later down the line.

​

edit: The screen isn't the best but for a budget laptop, you can't get much better. Just trust the scopes for any color grading work and make sure you export samples of it to watch on another devices/screens to make sure it matches your vision. Later down the line you can hook up an external monitor with better color accuracy.

Using an external recorder is a good idea, and a phone can be a great recorder if used correctly. You may not need the lapel mic. If there is a lectern or where you can put the phone on a flat surface near the speaker, the internal mic can do a good job. You should get an app for the phone designed for recording, such as the Rode Rec app.

If the speaker is moving around, a lapel mic might be better. I suggest this one which is designed to be used with a phone with no extra battery.

When you shoot, roll the audio first and let it keep rolling for the entire event. When you roll the camera, don't stop and start, just keep rolling. That will mean you will have to re-sync. When you first roll the camera clap your hands 2 or 3 times at 1-second intervals. Those hand claps will have a distinctive appearance on the audio tracks of your editing software so it will be easy to sync up the external recorder with your camera.

Hope this helps!

This is the Monitor I have used for about 2 years. I recommend going ultra-wide for an editing monitor. So helpful!

Davinci has a $6 kindle instructional guide that walks you through the entire software and provides real footage to practice with. It takes a bit more time, but it's very easy to follow.

Great book about technique. I read this one when I got my first job at a post house 10 years ago.
