Video calling is here to stay. So, it’s time you took your call setup more seriously. It is not necessary to spend a lot of money. A few minor changes can make you look and sound better.
As a result, people will perceive you as more professional and a better communicator. There are three major factors to consider: lighting, camera, and sound.
Always make video calls from a well-lit room. Sit facing a window for the best natural lighting. You will appear under-lit if you have a window behind you.
Invest in a ring light or proper LED lights for consistent lighting. You can even adjust the color temperature to match the temperature of natural light.
Use your phone's camera instead of the built-in webcam for a higher-quality image. There are apps that make it extremely simple to stream from your phone to your laptop.
External webcams are also recommended. Look for a resolution of 1080p HD for a clear image. Consider using an old digital SLR camera instead.
Finally, take into account your audio quality. Purchase a wireless clip-on microphone or a USB microphone. Adjust your call settings to reduce background noise if you are in the office.
