Appearance Dos and Dont’s
- Avoid tight patterns. Pinstripe and herringbone patterns can cause a moiré effect that creates strobing and can’t be adjusted on camera or post-production.

- Be aware of the color of your webcam background. Wear a contrasting color so that you don’t blend in with the background.
