[@JulieSchiro]

Thanks so much @Attila Kinali!

[@jessicalowery3718]

I watched probably 45 videos trying to figure out how to look and sound like a professional person. learned all I know from watching this video. I went from disaster zoom calls to nailing the dream job on zoom. Thank you so much !

[@JulieSchiro]

This makes me so happy to hear! Thanks Jessica, and congratulations!

[@JDawg00]

Just watched all videos. Top notch production quality! Lighting, audio, and content are all on point. A great breath of fresh air, coming off the usual sources for recording / filming tips which are usually highly intimidating and don’t simply answer the basics of what people want to learn these days. Subbed!

[@JulieSchiro]

Hi Justin! Thanks so much for the encouragement! Means a lot to. Welcome!

[@jamison85]

I just bingewatched your entire content...in about 30 minutes :D Like your style of videos, and really appreciate a "novice's" take on it. Often when I'm doing entry-level research for my own setup, some channels are showing off equipment worth a lot more than I'm willing to spend. Most mic reviews put a lot of focus on instruments - I'm not a musician, I just want to sound better over calls. Please keep the videos coming! Greenscreens sounds like a great idea, by the way. It's something that I looked into very briefly, but shelved due to moving house at the time.

[@JulieSchiro]

Knowing anyone would binge my videos is amazing 😂 That totally makes my day, thanks for that! And thanks for the nice comment and encouragement, I really appreciate it. And totally agree - not planning on singing over Zoom, lol! Another vote for green screens, yay!!

Hi DERC, thank you so much! 😊

[@kvl224]

A huge yes to the green screen video! :-) Please help us understand how you make this fabulous black background. Was it ever green? How should we use lighting to get the most out of black background? Another idea for a future video -- what is the best way to position the speaker vis-a-vis camera? Sitting at the desk? Standing up? If standing, using a podium or something like that? Moving or stationary? Sit/stand turning your body straight towards the camera? Or at an angle?

[@JulieSchiro]

Hi Kate! Thanks for the green screen vote!! Also, regarding the black background - that is paper (in the earlier videos, black fabric)! I film mostly against the black background. I tried using the greenscreen and swapping a black background in, but it looks unnatural. Also, great idea for another video - I was thinking of doing something on how to be more engaging in virtual presentations. Would be perfect to talk about those points. Thank you!

[@gustavotellez6848]

I just binged all three and wow so good!

[@JulieSchiro]

Thanks Gustavo! Makes my day to hear that they are worthy of a binge! 😊

[@MrAustinMusic]

I teach music online, and over the past few years I've gone through at least 6 mics, 6 cameras/webcams, and various other pieces of equipment. The goal is so simple, improve the experience for students, but the answer isn't always as simple. Great video, thank you for taking the time to do these!

[@TeslaRules1856]

Nicely done. I mostly do professional video conferencing from home and use both the Logitech c920 and the Brio webcams. The free Logitec Capture video software allows for basic camera settings to tune in the right tone, brightness, hue, zoom and then have that setting used for ANY video conferencing software. Will move up to OBS soon. Rather than a microphone I use Plantronics (now Poly) conference speaker phones - made for business conferencing with good voice quality speaker and multiple array microphones. Ring lights are great - especially color adjusting ones with remote control. To get that "office video conferencing look" I use a 43 inch TCL 4/5 series 4K monitor and set it up with a camera on top to set me back a bit behind my home work desk (no super close up) and still be able see multiple people on the call and visibly read documents presented on screen. I am installing a ceiling hung pull down green screen next.

I just discovered your channel Julie, through you zoom video series and they are definitely the most useful, user friendly ones I have found on the subject. also, you are radiant and so energetic ... you got yourself a new subscriber in France ;)

Thanks for the lovely comment Laurence! And welcome 😊 J'adore France!

Just getting started with online webinars and I’ve learned more from your handful of short videos than I have from any other source. Please, please, please... make a green screen video. I think this is something that could really benefit my teaching but I’ve no idea where to begin. Looking forward to seeing more great content from you!

[@JulieSchiro]

This makes me so happy to hear!! Thank you. Green screen video is up next....

Great stuff....your comment on the importance of a mic....dead on!! Also the scream when the chicken wing fell made coffee come out my nose....

[@JulieSchiro]

ahahahahaha!! You can thank Frodo for that scream.

So glad this channel popped up on my feed! You’re an amazing presenter and organize the information so well! I’ll check your other videos out, but some teacher specific posts could be really helpful. Grade school teachers are still feeling overwhelmed!

[@JulieSchiro]

Thank you so much Wes! And from one teacher to another, I get it. What a year. What teaching- specific content do you think grade school teachers would find most useful?

[@WesAllen]

@@JulieSchiro two that I can think of, watching my wife deal with this transition. First, since teachers are, by and large, going to be stuck with their school laptop webcams (they’re already lugging stuff back and forth from school and never know where they’re going to be on a given week). Some easy, and stable, ways to avoid “up the nostrils” shots. Then maybe creative ways to use OBS’s virtual cam feature to add some dynamism to the teacher stream (add a stream deck and things could be fun).

Hi Wes, thanks so much for the reply! Hadn't considered the issue of portability. Great ideas. I think some OBS videos are in order...

@@JulieSchiro if my wife was in a set space, I'd have her set up with my snoball on a swing arm, and my G7 set up as her camera!
