I just realized that Audrey said that when she wears voluminous shirts it can be "misleading" and I really like that! Instead of saying something like "I look fat in big shirts" it was much more honest and got the point across without implying that it's negative to "be voluminous" Love it!!

@sobeidalagrange7129 4 года назад

Yes. People might think one is pregnant too (Which is not good for interviews).😱😭😿

@schneeroseful 4 года назад

Important note: Eye contact in a video call is created by looking at the camera, not the eyes of the person on the screen.

@Letsmarchishere 4 года назад

True

@amsaric 4 года назад

It's sometimes problematic though because then you're not seeing the facial expressions of the person you're talking to. So I think it's a good idea to sort of do both.

@patriciagss2024 4 года назад

It's hard, I always forget

@doro8856 4 года назад

Thanks or that info. I was never sure how to do that.

@utuberme1 4 года назад

I learned that by taking selfies

@Ummiuno011 4 года назад

I'm crying at the thumbnail 😂 Audrey is like the cool, elegant auntie that's always teaching us how to survive the professional workplace! ♥️🇨🇦

@debabbott4423 4 года назад

Professional Microsoft Teams has an option to blurr the background while on a video call. Love your videos!!

@ah5721 4 года назад

if only they could cancel out the background sounds for those of us who have kids./pets /loud neighbors...

@DixieAcres 4 года назад

I always love your background! Its so clean and I love the brick with the plants, it's just Perfection. Your voice is so calm too, I've watched so many of your videos because i don't feel like your screaming in my face with your voice or personality

@Mikalya100 4 года назад

Brittany Bullock such a warm and gentle welcoming aura

@TheSeeking2know 3 года назад

That's true. She is able to get you to quiet down and listen attentively, because her voice is pleasant, well-modulated and at a good volume. Great job.

You are having an excellent hair day!

@irairod5160 4 года назад

Thank you, Audrey. I'll be teaching from home starting this week and will keep all of these tips in mind. I don't want to scare the children with a triple-chin shot of "dear teacher"! (BTW--I had to order a ring light, much to my chagrin. The best "filming" room in my house has the worst light at the time I'm scheduled to go live.) One thing I'm confident about--and have you and many other online "friends" to thank for: I don't have to worry about looking professional on camera. Having a dedicated "work" capsule wardrobe has helped me tremendously in that respect. I already selected a handful of items that will allow me to be very comfortable but still look like the teacher my students know. A couple of button downs, a few knit tops, a stand-up banded collar shirt in my favorite shade of blue, a variety of simple necklaces and earrings...I think it's important for them (and us) to feel we're back in school and doing some "serious" learning, even if it's through screens. I can't get into that feeling if I'm wearing shorts and a hoodie! I'm wishing everyone health, calm, and resilience through these unsettling and daunting times.

I would love it if Audrey finished the video by walking off and had really bad bed hair from the back and tracksuit bottoms on. Just kidding Audrey, you always look so gorgeous!

@paulajohnson7075 4 года назад

I have been on two Zoom calls since I watched this the first time, Audrey. What a difference these tips made. I just watched it again and was helped with one detail I had not remembered from my first viewing. I have taken two Zoom watercolor art classes, one prior to learning your tips and one after. I especially appreciated the tip to raise the camera to eye level. Not only does it make viewing easier and look better, it keeps paint splatters off of the keyboard, which some of my classmates were commenting on. :) I shared the tip about elevating the computer and our instructor commented that it would also help us to look straight at her demonstration rather than needing to look down. Once again, thank you very much!

@mybagoftheday1722 4 года назад

When I first watched this video I had no idea I was going to be interviewed for national TV on skype and live not once but three times the next week. Evrything I learned was so helpful.

@mariawelling4194 4 года назад

I love the soft waves on her hair, so pretty and feminine..

@milagrosrodriguez5228 4 года назад

Hehe absolutely, PJs Audrey was a cute addition to the video :)

@meredithhudson4513 4 года назад

@ttjnaaa 4 года назад

Ohh, Audrey, queen, I can't tell you enough how much I like you natural curl. It looks so lively and suits the spring/summer weather so perfectly!

@katherinecrerar7165 4 года назад

Very helpful! And thank you for the entertaining clips of the "don'ts"!!

@sandradeegoulding 4 года назад

Yes please keep making them as you are very sensitive charming and relevant. I’m confident you’ll keep what’s going on now top of mind as you make your videos such as this one. I’m on camera now more than ever and this is such good info to help me be more comfortable and feel better about myself & not scare anyone 🤣I’m deeply grateful 🙏🏽💚 & stay healthy 🙏🏽

@ErikaBardere 4 года назад

*Meanwhile in my Zoom classes, every single student is in PJs and hoodies, with messy hair, dogs barking, children screaming, eating chips, using some virtual background in outerspace, or actually driving in their car at the same time* I have a public speaking class that I also have to submit online, so I can't wait to see the next video, thank you! Perfect timing!

@fernandagiffoni5114 4 года назад

Thank you Audrey, I'm lawyer and during this quarentene I only talk to my clients on video calls. Your tips are amazing and I'm gonna use them right now :) By the way I loved the video about the morning routine, thank YOU for making this moment we´re experiencing more beautiful, calm and instructive. Kisses from Brazil. (sorry for the spelling mistakes)

@thefaceyogacoach 4 года назад

Calm, elegant, wonderful advice, so watchable. Thank you so much.

@alicemaguire1 4 года назад

I think this is one of the better videos that Audrey has made because it is much more succinct than is usually the case. Audrey often runs on and on, and while her information is valuable she takes waaaaaay to long to make her point. It makes me want to give up on her. This video was particularly helpful given the current need to socially isolate and the frequent use of Zoom and Facetime to make both individual and group connections. Yea Audrey.

@aprilrosecaraan836 4 года назад

Can you do a hair care routine? I think your hair looks lovely! 🥰

@AudreyCoyne 4 года назад

April Rose Caraan thank you so much! I will absolutely share my new routine ❤️❤️

@lauriem7122 4 года назад

Thank you! Yes, please continue your videos! You are a breath of fresh air. I like this video because not only do you show us what to do, but you show examples of what not to do! You're adorable. Love, from my house to yours. 🤗

@anachitimus1288 4 года назад

Please don't stop making videos. A lot of channels i follow took that decision. Now that i am home feels so nice to watch your videos with a nice cup of coffee. I even starting going back and watching your old videos. You can clearly see the improvement.

@annfairfax9797 4 года назад

Thank you Audrey! Yes definitely an escape but also very educational and interesting! Soothing and relaxing too! You are lovely!!

@saraleblanc2853 4 года назад

Regarding eye contact, I find it helpful to move my frame up as close to the camera on my laptop as I can so if I do glance at my reflection I’m also looking into the webcam.

@helenaG1961 4 года назад

Thank you, Audrey. I really appreciate your continuing during these uncertain times. Your videos make me feel connected to the rest of humanity at a time when I can't connect to humans and everyone appears to be a zombie whenever I need to be out in public.

@achieving.excellence 3 года назад

Considering your background is as important as your personal appearance because it is an extension of your brand. Great points, Audrey.

@Zakster2023 4 года назад

Audrey, your genuine warmth is refreshing! Thank you.

@barbaraboyer627 4 года назад

A funny antidote in regards to choosing your background. My 20 year old daughter is schooled through live video conferencing with all of her classmates due to the Covid 19. Before she did her first conference, she did a video testing. Luckily she noticed her stuffed animals on her bed on the background. She quickly threw them off the bed for the fear of embarrassment. Thank you Audrey (the name of my daughter as well) for a well constructed and animated video. Thank you for all you do on your channel. It is nice to see someone who has good common sense without going over the top and it’s okay to be sensible but with mindful style and reminding us it’s okay to be you. Best wishes to you.

@ZannaKatoka 4 года назад

That's an adorable anecdote! 😁

@KN-bs9wb 4 года назад

Thank you for never letting us down and having interesting, helpful and most importantly CONSISTENT content❤️. As an essential worker and still “out there in it” every day I really look forward to waking up slowly on weekends with coffee and my favorite You Tube fashion channels. Some channels/influencers I follow often say “I’ve had a rough week” or “feeling tired” or “not motivated today” so not going to post a video.🤦🏻‍♀️ (it seems subscribers received more content from them when it was there part time job. As soon as it becomes their full time job they get flakey and don’t seem to enjoy it as much.) YES you provide much needed escapism and calm during this storm, thank you for understanding this and taking your job as an influencer seriously as most of us do our chosen careers. You are a true professional. 🙌🏼🌹

@rainforestblessed5031 4 года назад

We're lucky to have you Audrey ... Everything calming, beautiful, appropriate, and so helpful. Bless your heart and stay safe. xo

@PhuongNguyen-zr1rg 4 года назад

I love that you are wearing your natural curls more often. Your natural texture is so beautiful!!

@suzy1750 4 года назад

I want to thank you (and some other You Tubers) for being real and willing to show yourselves in less than flattering ways to make a point. For example, showing how filming from below looks bad even on you, who is quite beautiful, really brings it home that there is a lot that we can do, that we might not even have realized, to make ourselves look better. It's so different from traditional (for lack of a better word) celebrities, who try and hide everything that goes into making them look so good, in order to make themselves seem somehow different and, it has to be said, better in some ways than regular folk. My respect and appreciation for you and the others is huge.

@tango1590 4 года назад

Absolutely keep making these videos..❤.your such an great inspiration...we all need an outlet right now...keep them coming...be safe🙂

@astrid3415 4 года назад

Thanks to you dear Audrey for your videos, tips and very gentle way to speak to us. It's really a pleasure and a relax to listen you! And your ideas are top.

@pippas5808 4 года назад

I love the background to your videos - it's not distracting, but it looks so calm, welcoming & peaceful. I feel it's the kind of house I would feel 'at home' in, and it makes it feel like I am visiting a friend for coffee - especially precious right now, as I'm living alone in lockdown and don't have the facility for video calls. (Btw, totally get the need to avoid background movement on professional calls, but I do also love it when your cat makes an unscheduled appearance in your videos - so cute!) Thank you for providing some normality in this hard time. Stay safe x

@linbelejacobsen5739 4 года назад

I really loved this one! And looking forward to the next one. I have about 10 video calls a day, and getting used to it enough to enhance both the background, my make and angle. Thank you and stay self!

@eileenchang2173 4 года назад

Audrey, what I like to do is learn something during this unusual phase in our lives. You’re one of a couple of RU-vidrs who do provide that. You to provide sound and practical advice but yet you don’t lose the joy of what we love each day. Thank you.

@celianewcomb5588 4 года назад

I really like the more feminine look you have had lately. It really suits you. Have you ever looked into the Dressing Your Truth system? It has helped me with style and colour enormously. It's really changed my life. I recommend it!

@AudreyCoyne 4 года назад

Celia Newcomb thank you so much! I will look into it 🙌

@susiescalia2469 4 года назад

Thank you for all of your videos, they make me think! I especially like this one since facetime and video chats are the norm right now. I've never had to use this kind of tech so this particular video is very well timed and I thank you. I enjoy your channel so much. Thanks for each one of these inspiring chats.

@billdemaineiii6979 3 года назад

These tips were brilliant and very timely in my life right now. Thank you so much. You are articulate and a pleasure to listen to. Your thoughts are concise and easy to understand. I appreciate that as well. Thank you... and God bless you.

@helenehelene1321 4 года назад

So want to be you!! I’m from a large family so I’m loud and all over the place with hand gestures! Voice Modulation is Greek to me but you do it so well... I’ll practice and keep my fingers crossed 😊

@louisemcelhill5748 4 года назад

Thanks Audrey. I've sent a link to this video to my Mum. We've been doing family Zoom meetings and I know she feels self conscious. Especially as her hairdresser, who used to come and do her hair every Friday, isn't coming due to current physical distancing measures. 🌷

@mariecblue59 4 года назад

@giaselma9281 3 года назад

So wonderful and always so naturally well spoken Miss Audrey Coyne :-) dont give up creating videos your tips and tricks and all of those that make you as finesse as you are is mostly the things that we forget and thus makes the communication seem more distant. A wonderful day ~!

@shariward7733 3 года назад

@venus1215 4 года назад

lovely video with practical tips. your voice is amazingly calming with very clear diction. your hair in this video is gorgeous!

@droundyCubby 3 года назад

Actually, using gestures helps the watcher understand you better. It is more real. However I do think, especially if you are a gesturer, you need to slow it down. I note that head tips are also a form of gesture that you use very well. Love your videos, just shared this on Facebook.

@robinr1714 4 года назад

So glad you're still doing your videos, Audrey. People need to think about something else once in a while instead of non-stop concentration on our current situation.

@nancybarbata2086 4 года назад

Yes! Please keep making your videos! Your ideas & suggestions have helped me over the last year, not only with my wardrobe but also my sewing (!) and what I hear inside my head... I hear more positive "self-talk" ❤ And, your wonderful calm presentation helps with stress, too!

Thank you for this video Audrey, it’s the best one I’ve watched during this time. You look beautiful and elegant and now I know how to at least try to project the best of myself! I have been delivering guitar tuition via Skype so I need to be a little further away from the camera, as do my students, so that the hands can be seen on the guitar. I am looking forward to your next video about sound quality since I am also having issues with that. I hope you are keeping well.

Thank you again

@leeannschaffer1433 4 года назад

Thank you so much! You relieved me by letting me know that I was doing so much the right way, but also brought to my attention the idea of the damage I am probably doing with gestures. I am an English teacher (and theater, but not right now for that one.) I tend to gesture a lot and very broadly - BIG. As soon as you mentioned it, all of what I've been doing in that regard came into my mind's eye, and I was floored. I will employ the change immediately. Again, thank you so much. Your channel is one of my favorites. I deeply appreciate all that you do. Please continue!
