In any meeting, the goal is to make the interaction feel natural. But when the camera is too high or too low, the whole play breaks down. Angles feel off, eye contact disappears, and what should be a clean exchange starts to feel awkward.
You can have the best content in the world but if the framing is wrong, you’re less likely to have an AV completion.
Read the Defense: What’s Going Wrong
Most setups fall into one of two bad plays:
Too High
The camera looks down on the subject. It disconnects the speaker from the audience and shifts focus away from the conversation.
Too Low
The camera looks up. It creates awkward angles and instantly chips away at professionalism.
Neither one feels natural. And when something feels off, people stop focusing on what’s being said.
Call the Right Play
The winning setup is simple:
Eye level. Straight on. No distractions.
When the camera meets the subject at eye level:
- Presence feels natural
- Eye contact feels real
- The technology disappears
That’s the goal—run the play so cleanly no one notices the system behind it.
