Tips and Tricks
• Make sure you know the name or number of the
site you want to call.
• Connect and test any additional equipment before
the meeting.
• Avoid wearing bright colors, all-light or all-dark
clothing, or "busy" patterns. Light pastels and
muted colors look the best on the screen.
• Adjust your camera so that the far site can see you.
Fill the screen with people rather than with the
table, chairs, walls, lights, or floor.
• Adjust your microphone so that the far site can
hear you. Mute the microphone before moving it so
that the far site doesn't hear you moving it.
• Make sure that you can see and hear the far-site
participants.
Near or
• Introduce all participants when the meeting starts.
• Speak in your normal voice without shouting. Use
natural gestures when you speak.
• Don't tap on the microphone or rustle papers near
the microphone. In a multipoint call, mute your
microphone when you are not speaking.
