8. Video Tips
When possible, place your video camera on your monitor above where the video window appears on the screen. This improves the perception of eye contact.
Beware of the “gaze angle”.
Just like being in person, it is important to look up at the camera to maintain eye contact with the patient.
Maintain eye contact.
Keep the area well lit by adding a desk lamp in front of your face just behind the monitor.
Turn on the light.

9. Video Tips Wear proper clothing.
Muted solid colors, like pale blue or yellow work best when presenting. Avoid bright whites and contrasting patterns such as stripes or checkered prints.
Wear proper clothing.
It is best to slow down your natural hand or head movements, and use slow, smooth gestures to avoid appearing jumpy.
Slow down.
A security warning will display asking you to allow the video to access your webcam and microphone. To stop this warning from displaying, right click the video window and select “Settings”. On the Privacy tab, check the “Remember” box under “Allow”. Close the “Settings” Window.
Remove security warnings.
