Tips for Video Calls
There are several things to consider when you place a video call to ensure the best experience.
Check your video image to make sure it’s clear, bright, and sharp.
Avoid bright lights or windows behind you. If the camera faces a window or bright lights, adjust the
camera settings.
Avoid wearing bright colors, all-light or all-dark clothing, or busy patterns, such as small checks or
narrow stripes. Pastels and muted colors look best on the screen.
Use natural gestures and speak in a natural tone without shouting.
Pause between sentences to allow for possible audio delay.
During a conference call, mute your microphone when not speaking.
Avoid tapping or rustling papers near the microphone.
