Recording Guidelines
Set up your webcam at eye-height. Facing the camera face-on creates the best connection with your audience. Look at the camera while you’re talking and not the screen.
Be mindful of the background. Try to sit in front of a nice-looking background without clutter, distractions, or embarrassing items.
Make sure there is plenty of light in the room. Do not put the light behind, above, or below you to avoid shadows in the face.
Avoid having a window behind you.
Use a microphone, earbuds, or a headset rather than relying on your device to capture the sound.
Speak clearly and turn off anything that makes loud noises in the room.
Rehearse your presentation prior to going live.
Reboot your computer several hours before the event to avoid any automated updates that could launch or ring.
Turn off/close any non-presentation related programs (i.e. email) to avoid pop-ups and alert noises.
Silence your cell phone; if it is on vibrate, put it in your pocket (or on another soft surface) so it does not make a buzzing noise during your recording.
