Hi /u/geekbrother - I noticed that the sample video you shared runs for 7 minutes - I hope you're not planning on anything longer than 12 minutes with your T3i? If so, you'll have a challenge because the camera will shut down and need to be restarted.
It also has a tendency to produce moire on patterned clothing, especially striped shirts and ties. This can be a problem if you don't notice it until you get to the editing suite.
And the T3i's audio recording quality is horrible - necessitating the purchase of an external recorder or preamp and the hassle of syncing your sound in post.
Plus, it has no headphone jack and a tiny monitor that is not really suited for studio work.
I have Panasonic GH3 and GH4 cameras that have headphone jacks and shoot for hours at a time, but they suffer from some of the same limitations as a DSLR for studio work (e.g., tiny screens).
If I were setting up a dedicated studio today, I would get a $1995 Blackmagic Design Studio Camera and a $328 Blackmagic Hyperdeck Shuttle. You won't need an external audio recorder with this camera, because it has built in XLR jacks with phantom power.
I saw this camera at NAB, and it's the real deal. A broadcast quality studio camera for less than $2000.
Here's a hands-on from the show with a run-down of the features: http://youtu.be/o7AnluDDvj8
Note the size of the built-in monitor. Your cameraperson will thank you. If you're the camera op, you'll be thanking yourself :)
Here's how I would put a $4K studio together around this camera [Referral Links]:

For $4000, this setup will deliver high quality audio and video to your audience.
Hope this is helpful and good luck!
