Zoom provides a Unified Meeting Experience platform that brings HD video conferencing, mobility and web meetings together as a cloud service. A crystal-clear video conversation and high quality screen sharing with up to 25 people or rooms. It is available for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android.
Installation
Go to Zoom Download and download Zoom. After the install you can enter your first, last name and your e-mail address to sign up.
- Use the desktop installment.
- Find quiet room.
- Use a fast wired network connection (avoid Wifi). start this speedtest. The yellow bar for download and upload should be above 1.2Mbps for one-on-one meetings. A group(for example 5) zoom meeting should be above 20Mbps.
- Wall mount power supply for your PC (to avoid battery issues).
- We recommend diffuse lighting from the front (e.g. window). We do not recommend lighting from behind or above (neons), because this causes underexposed and poorly lit faces.
- A neutral and static background helps to reduce distractions during the talk.
- Some people prefer giving the presentation while standing. This significantly improves the intonation and makes the presentation more dynamic.
- Optimize Zoom. Go to the start video arrow on the lower left side. Select Video settings....
- Select Enable HD and Touch up my appearance.
