Episode 27: The One About Video Conferencing


Listen Later

If there is one thing the pandemic has revealed to us more than anything else, it's how terrible people are at video conferencing.  Whether it is the "up-the-nostril" laptop webcam shot, the dark-cave lighting problems or someone munching trail mix during the steering committee meeting, our collective quarantine has really demonstrated that most people don't quite have the hang of the video call. And don't even get started on what people apparently think appropriate to wear (or not wear) for the weekly status meeting...  

I wondered if my smart friends might have some tips for effective video conferencing. I was also interested in finding out what sort of products and equipment they're using and what recommendations they might have for folks just setting up a home office and learning the video conferencing ropes.  

In this episode: 

  • What are the top etiquette tips for video calls? 
  • Everything you needed to know about lighting 
  • What kind of camera do you really need? 
  • Best headsets and microphones for your calls 
  • Why you really should consider two monitors 
  • Why presence still matters... be professional people!
