DESIGN THE PERFECT VIDEO CONFERENCING SPACE
LIGHTING IS EVERYTHING
When possible, make the most of natural light. You can also position lamps right in front of you or off to the side by no more than 45 degrees. (If the light is overhead or directly behind you, it will cast a shadow over your face.)
Some possible setups could include:
- Facing a window
- A desk lamp, light bar or ring light to the sides of you
- An additional light source behind you, off camera, to add depth
ADJUST YOUR COMPUTER HEIGHT
By positioning your camera slightly above eye level, you eliminate an unwanted double chin and create a more flattering angle. You can even use books or boxes to stack your device, since no one will see them.
For that matter, remove any unnecessary clutter and place it out of sight behind your computer. While some setups work better in 2D than in real life, view your space on your computer screen to ensure the perfect look.
Design the perfect space for video conferencing - the right environment brings out your best!
