Apart from a good video camera, what other equipment or softwares do I need in order to make a decent 'vloggable' YouTube video?

Just about any software will let you add pictures, basic animation, etc. So I wouldn't worry too much about that. The best investment you can make to improve your overall video quality is in sound equipment. Absolutely nothing screams amateur like bad sound! Field recorders like the Zoom H4n are relatively cheap and should definitely do the trick.

Production Requirements: 1) A video camera + accessories (Can be iPhone/GoPro/Handycam) 2) Tripod 3) For in-door shooting, lighting arrangements (Just use of room lights and thermocol sheets may suffice the need) 4) If needed live voice recording, Neck mic or iPhone hidden in pocket 5) Of course, the script! Post-production requirements: 1) Video editing a) Story board formation b) Basic color corrections and trimming by cue points c) Video stabilization d) Video effects (if needed) e) Transition effects (If needed) 2) Voice dubbing 3) Re-recording with music and sound effects (This is the best place to find royalty-free music - http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/) For this level of editing, I use AVS video editor. That is, AVS video editor helps in all the 3 steps that I listed in Post-production.

hi .Don't just record in noisy environment and think that software remove all noises. You should add few Soundproofing elements at your room if you are recording in house.

You can do all of what you want using https://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.html.Camtasia has video editing, transitions, and noise reduction built in.It supports music, sound effects, photos and videos, and has an easy to use drag and drop interface, with standard video editing features.I currently use paid versions of Camtasia and http://flstudio.image-line.com/, which is a music production program, with powerful audio creation and editing features, along with free updates and an easy interface. In http://flstudio.image-line.com/ free edition, the only limitation is you can’t save your project files. But you can export them, and edit them in Camtasia.If you are recording your voice, a lapel mic is good. If you are recording from a DSLR, there is a wireless microphone kit called the http://www.rode.com/wireless/filmmaker you can get that has a broadcast quality microphone, transmitter, receiver and dead cat. http://www.rode.com/wireless/filmmaker.

You would wanna buy a good mic for a quality sound that cuts off the noises beacause vlogging is mostly about verbal presentation. So you don't want to ruin it using the inbuilt mic. You need a good content that would grab the viewers attention and they should feel like clicking the Subscribe button after watching your vlog. Another important thing would be proper lighting.  If you are planning to shoot indoor, you could arrange a 3 point lighting system (back light, key light and fill light) although this is mostly for photography.  You would need a tripod and a monopod(gorrila pod) with a ball head(optional) so that you could adjust your camera as you would like to. Premier pro would be a slap on software for video editing at all the stages because it's user friendly and quite simple to use. Remember, you don't need expensive equipments to shoot a video. All you would require is a decent interesting content and an interesting presentation. As Casey Neistat says, to gain subscriptions, follow this one rule: "JUST KEEP UPLOADING" and you are good to go. All the very best for your vlogging journey.
