6 Tips to look amazing on camera π How To Design a Youtube or Zoom Background You're *Actually* Proud Of





1. Spread Out Your Background Items A common mistake: clumping furniture behind your head. Makes it claustrophobic. Instead, extend some furniture off-camera. This creates the sense of a larger world beyond the screen. Youβre a world-builder π§πΌββοΈ @AnnaAkana is great at this.


2. Fill Up Empty Space Avoid the blank white wall. We humans speak the language of signaling. Just as important as the words we say. Signal intentionality. Make your space a *home* for your audience. People will feel drawn to you. @AliAbdaal thanks for doing this so well


3. Think Beyond Physical Items. You can also add visual interest with textures & light/shadow. You're an artist. The video frame is your canvas. Be creative. Ask - how else can you "paint" interest into your video frame? @mondobytes does an amazing job with lighting π


4. Think Layers Add layers to your scene Depth = Rich & Engaging Flat = Cheap & "Webcammy" Again, make the human on the other side feel welcomed. We're here to connect w real people. Create a space they want to "be" in Amazing work as always by @MasterClass @ElaineWelteroth

Speaking of small spaces, here's a video of me making a studio in a tiny office closet to prove it's possible π <a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/qpsQxzbXxMo" color="blue">youtu.be/qpsQxzbXxMo</a>

6. Finally, a little camera magic: If you move camera back & zoom in, your decor will look bigger. Great if you want specific items to be more prominent. Also great if you're lazy & want less of your wall to show on camera π Another great one by @MasterClass @shondarhimes


These are just a few examples I pulled from our Inspirations Library It's a gallery of screenshots we've been collecting over time & one of the first steps we take every student/client through when designing a new studio.
