Video conferencing is becoming incredibly popular and now that business grade telepresence has moved to mobile phone, Android and iPhone devices, there\u2019s certain rules of etiquette that should be adhered to as well as best practices.\u00a0 In a formal conference room you don\u2019t forget people are around you the way mobile phone users do.\u00a0 So here are our top 10 tips for mobile video conferencing while your on the go:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make sure you learn the technology that you\u2019re using.\u00a0 You need to be able to perform tasks like multiparty mobile conference calling, how to share content effectively so there are \u201cno little surprises\u201d of personal images as well as putting the mobile video conference on hold so they can\u2019t see what you\u2019re doing.<\/li>\n
  2. Know how-to use the abundance of multi-touch gestures, drag and drop, etc so you can enhance your mobile video conferencing experience.<\/li>\n
  3. Learn about layout options and make damn sure you\u2019re confident in using the self-view so you can see what the rest of the participants are looking at.\u00a0 Think of a newsreader wearing board shorts under the table!\u00a0 .<\/li>\n
  4. Make sure you clearly understand that the experience varies between a smartphone and a tablet and if you have both devices at your disposal make sure you use the best dives for your specific needs.<\/li>\n
  5. Take advantage of a mobile device stand to ensure that your image doesn\u2019t look like it\u2019s in a tumble dryer.<\/li>\n
  6. Mute yourself when not speaking, and we suggest the use of a headset or Bluetooth audio device to deliver the optimal audio with noise cancelling properties.\u00a0 Also make sure you \u201cmute\u201d your camera when you\u2019re out and about and not on a mobile video conference.<\/li>\n
  7. Ensure the room is well lit and avoid backlighting, as it will make you appear dark to those on the far end. You\u2019ll look like a terrorist delivering a warning if you don\u2019t and it won\u2019t be presenting your best image.<\/li>\n
  8. Choose a video conferencing solution like the Radvision Scopia that is intelligent enough to replicate human interaction most effectively.\u00a0 This means that it won\u2019t keep a person at the centre of the presentation when they\u2019re not talking but will move them to the centre when they start to talk for a defined amount of time.\u00a0 Without this you end up looking at people that aren\u2019t talking or the screen constantly bouncing between users which is very distracting.<\/li>\n
  9. Normal etiquette still applies. This means, unless you won the company and don\u2019t care, you shouldn\u2019t be eating, checking email, having side conversation that all participants can hear, picking your nose, scratching yourself and anything else you don\u2019t want people to experience.<\/li>\n
  10. Make being mobile really work for you and cut unnecessary trips back to the office which are time consuming and expensive.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The world of mobile phone video conferencing is exciting and incredibly effective.\u00a0 Make sure you just forget that you may be by yourself but all participants can see exactly what you\u2019re doing in beautiful HD quality!<\/p>\n
