VIRTUAL TESTIMONIAL VIDEO GUIDELINES
Creating engaging content in the virtual world
1. Clean audio is key
Audio is the first thing people notice if not done right.
Things to consider when setting up for a virtual interview:
- Find a space with as little as possible background noise
- Avoid being around loud air handling vents
- Avoid being by high traffic areas, so you don’t have to worry about audio being affected
2. Lighting & location
The best positioning to capture quality video for your story
Things to consider when setting up for a virtual interview:
- Avoid having light sources behind you as you get ready for the interview
- Natural light from windows is better than artificial overhead lighting
- Be conscious of what is behind you and with in-camera view
