Tips for Today

With the increasing use of video streaming for Zoom/Skype gatherings, meetings, auditions and more here are some basic tips to encourage good communication and connection: look into the camera as you speak, smile, center your face in the camera, wear solid tops (blues and corals are colors that give warmth to your face,) speak towards the front of your mouth, actively use your articulators (lips, teeth, tongue) for clarity, don't wear jewelry, and avoid distracting backgrounds.
