How Do I Use Skype to Create a Testimonial?
- Create a Skype account
- Know your phone number and Skype ID
- Be sure to have your phone or laptop plugged in for the duration of the call (so you don’t lose power).
- If you are using your phone, place the camera so that it shoots horizontally and use a phone stand so it doesn't move.
- Position the phone or laptop camera lens so that it is level with your eyes and you aren't looking down or up at the camera.
- When Skyping with JTV, frame the shot so that the top of your head is a little under the top of the screen. We want to see you from at least your chest up.
- Make sure your background is simple and not busy. Avoid having a window to your back.
- Have a light in front of you so that the light is shining on your face. You might need two lamps, one in front of you and one from each side.
- Turn off any overhead lights.
- Make sure you have a strong and consistent Wifi signal. If others are using the same Wifi, ask them to turn off their Wifi devices to ensure that you have the strongest, uninterrupted signal.
- When Skyping with JTV, someone from JTV will schedule a time with you to test the signal.
