bjbj [Music Playing] A webcam isn t the best option for creating online video. It sits
close, the angle is bad, and the quality is a bit light, but it is possible to use a webcam
and improve the overall quality and presentation of your online videos by using a few simple
tips and tricks. [Music Playing] A big piece of the puzzle would be to adjust the positioning
of your webcam, keeping it along the same line of site as your eye level, which is generally
the best possible angle that would feel the most natural and look the best. [Music Playing]
If you have head room, this angle should eliminate it. [Music Playing] If you have to cut something
out, make it the top of the head, as cutting out chins tends to look a bit more unnatural.
[Music Playing] s also important to make sure that you re looking into the camera lens directly
and not at your computer screen. When your eyes are off access with the webcam, it is
much less compelling and prevents you from making eye contact with the viewer. [Music
Playing] When using a webcam, remember that the human eye sees a lot more than a video
camera. Just because you can see everything clearly with a little bit of natural light,
doesn t mean that on video it will look good. This is why you should always try to add additional
light when using a webcam. Even if you only have some simple houselights, remember some
light is always better than no light. Keep a three-point lighting structure in mind and
try to replicate it at home with your normal houselights. You ll be surprised at how much
eliminating shadows can add to your video s overall look and feel. [Music Playing] If
you re using the webcam to create a video blog or for video conferencing purposes, you
re going to need to pay attention to how you capture your audio. The first step is to avoid
having your speakers on when talking or your audio will come through with an echo and a
harsh reverb tone to your voice that makes it hard to understand. The second is to use
some kind of external microphone connected to your computer and be sure to place that
microphone as close to your mouth as possible. By moving the mic close, you lose a lot of
that hollow, tingy sound and environmental noise and get a crisp, clear audio track that
helps to keep people listening. [Music Playing] These webcams aren t as impressive as your
standard camera, but you can still create impressive online video with a few simple
tips and tricks. [Music Playing] [End of Audio] Web Cams Page PAGE of NUMPAGES Male www.verbalink.com
