Meeting Etiquette for Registered Speakers – things to consider when speaking at public meetings on video:

• Background – the meeting is public and people will be able to see what is behind you therefore consider what you will have on display behind you.
• Camera angle – sit front on, upright with the device in front of you.
• Who else is in the room – make sure you are in a position where nobody will enter the camera shot who doesn’t want to appear in the public meeting.
• Background noise – try where possible to minimise background noise.
• Aim to join the meeting 15 minutes before it is due to start.
