If you have some kind of neat shelving you can do and play around with that as well.īut the background is important and especially if you’re turning on your camera for work and your, you know, your living or whatever is kind of messy it could be a distraction.
Setting up a green screen, you can set up even basically like a curtain in the back if you wanted to do that, just set up against a white wall, you can put something up like either fabric or there are lots of really cool backgrounds on Amazon that you can buy and you can just hang it up behind you.
You can set up a green screen like, I’m not an expert on background, but these are just some ideas that you can maybe look up as well. So obviously, everyone can see the background and so there are lots of really cool tips. The next thing you want to think about is your background. I know it feels weird, but if it’s an important meeting and you really need to look at somebody then look into the camera cause that’s when they can see you. And if you’re using your phone you can use a tripod but just get it kind of higher so that is eye level.Īlso, you probably know this, but when you’re speaking to somebody on the other end you want to look right into the camera just the way I am just looking at you right now, into the camera and not lower so that, I mean it’s kind of weird to do that. So you can use books or whatever it might be just to stack it up. But the reason you want to prop it up is so that the camera is eye level and it’s not like down lower and basically showing everybody your nostrils! It’s just a lot nicer when the camera is up higher. You can use puzzle boxes, books, or whatever it might be. So here I have my computer propped up on just this box. Okay, the next thing is propping up your computer. You can get that on Amazon or having set up lamps or something right behind the computer is really important so that, again, it gives light on to your face. If you can’t do that, then having like a ring light. If you don’t have natural light so setting up in front of a window is great. The best tip I can give you is to loud as much natural light as possible into the room and especially having your laptop (I’m assuming that you’re going to be on the laptop when you’re on Zoom), having the light in front of you and not behind you, it creates kind of a funky glare if you have light behind you, so have it in front of you. I’m many times with clients on Zoom and their lights are kind of low and it’s really hard to see not only their beautiful faces but also what they’re showing me, like their clothes or whatever it might be.
Having been on Zoom for over three years and on in front of a camera I feel like I made a lot of mistakes, I’ve learned on the highway so… This is what I can share with you to help you look awesome on Zoom.
And especially if your boss is like having you turn on the camera now you’ll do all these tips.
