Change the Zoom Light Out for a Bright Screen


The camera provides more even lighting, helping you avoid casting shadows around your chin, nose, and eyes. To look your best on Zoom, optimal face illumination is crucial. While circle lights have traditionally been positioned directly in front of a person, their placement requires careful consideration.


Positioning Matters


The ring light must be positioned carefully - not too high or too low - to prevent unflattering shadows from covering your face. If you're limited to video calls and lack a dedicated ring light, your monitor screen becomes an excellent alternative!


Zoom the Light to Make It Brighter


Fundamentally different from standard video call lighting, this approach offers flexibility. You can adjust the lighting by:

  • Zooming in and out on the lighting screen
  • Manipulating screen brightness
  • Exploring various lighting configurations

    • Affordability and Ease of Use


    These lighting solutions are incredibly manageable. In many scenarios, you won't need to invest significant money to achieve good lighting.

    Start with natural illumination whenever possible:

  • Assess whether your space is sufficiently lit for comfortable work
  • Position your computer or workstation facing a window
  • Leverage natural light before implementing artificial solutions
