Tips to make it work

  • Be sure you have enough light on your face. The less the webcam has to adjust the light balance, the better you'll look. 
  • Try to frame your face with an uncluttered background.
  • Dark or bright colors in the background are easiest for the software to replace with the background image, sort of like a green screen.
  • Be sure to wear a different color shirt than your environment. (A blue shirt plus a blue wall behind you makes it hard on the webcam.)
  • Experiment and have fun!
