Kounsel Live Stream Checklist
Before a Live Streaming
✔️ Plan Your Content
- Define your objectives. If necessary prepare an outline or script to keep your live stream focused and organized.
✔️ Set Up Your Environment
- Find a quiet and well-lit area.
- Remove any distractions from the background, such as windows or doors, and avoid personal spaces like bedrooms.
- Consider a solid color wall as a background or use a virtual background for a polished appearance.
- Whether you use a tripod-mounted camera or stream from your computer, make sure that your neck or head is not cut off in the frame.
- Ensure good lighting: use natural lighting whenever possible by facing a window or using soft, diffused lighting. Avoid harsh shadows or backlighting that may obscure your face.
- Dress Professionally: wear appropriate attire that aligns with your profession and the content you're delivering.
