Areeb Mirza (TV production/directing background) gives concise tips for framing talking-head recordings and meetings: keep minimal space between head and top edge, avoid cutting off hair, leave a couple inches gap above the head, and promises a following clip about a simple lighting fix using common tools.
Talking head reels properly frame yourself in recordings. So I have a strong background production and the TV side of things as well. Directing TV shows, editing TV shows with the producers of Steve Harvey show, making commercials for ARP, ESPN, etc. I'm going to give you some tips on how to properly frame yourself in recordings, because most people just do this incorrectly and this can be used for meetings as well. When you frame yourself to be on camera, there should be very little room left from your head to the edge of the clip. Also, want to make sure your head or hair doesn't leave the frame. There needs to be a couple of inches of gap on the top. In the next clip, I'll be talking about a simple lighting fix you need to implement to further improve how you appear online or in meetings with tools you already have. Make sure you're following for that.
