0:05 Greet with hand gesture to disengage fight/flight and look friendly
0:25 18”-3’ away from camera
0:44 still give visual affirmations when on mute to ramp up charisma

These tips are valid, assuming virtual meeting participants turn on their camera, I have found that many virtual meeting participants don't even turn on their cameras because they consider it like a telephone conference, so why do you need to see the person. I find it annoying because it is like putting a bag over your head in an in-person meeting.

Well thats why i love acting cause i get to listen and produce authentic reactions on video chat. hopefully the shyness fades away over time😮 that space between camera tip gives me soo much room to think. I was doing that with all my devices
