Find a flattering direction
No light yet? By day, sit facing a window. With a lamp, place it slightly to one side and above eye level. Keep hot lights away from fabric.
Bring skin tones and background into balance
Avoid having strong lights with different colour temperatures shine on your face at the same time. Check skin tones and the background together. If your equipment supports it, set white balance for the actual lighting.
Save a repeatable setup
Check for overexposure on your face and reflections in glasses. Note the camera and light positions, then save the settings that work for your next stream.
