Pre-requisites


1. Use a laptop to access Mixhubb.

2. The link needs to be accessed by the Google Chrome browser only on a laptop.

3. Please ensure that the VPN is turned off on your laptop.

4. Make sure all other unnecessary programs are closed for the time of the event.

5. Laptop requirement: 8GB RAM, i5 Processor.

6. Bandwidth Requirement: 10 MBPS.

7. Make sure that you give access to the camera and microphone when you join the stage on Mixhubb.

8. Keep your computer plugged into a power outlet. Do not rely on a battery.

9. Connect with a wired internet connection if possible. Make sure other computers and devices on the network are not sharing your bandwidth.

10. Please turn off all notifications to avoid any unwanted pop-ups.



Good to have: practices


1. Find a quiet location. Sit for a few minutes and listen to your environment. The noises around can affect

your Audio Quality.

2. Try to pick a space that is smaller and with soft walls such as curtains. It will keep the sound from

bouncing around which can make your audio sound hollow.

3. Turn off any nearby mobile devices.

4. The camera should be stable, at or above eye level (so as not to stare up at your chin).

5. Your face should be in good, even light, with no harsh backlight or distracting items behind it.

Additionally, avoid mixing light sources (for example window light and lamp light or Incandescent

lighting and fluorescent light) as the different color temperatures will usually be dealt with poorly by

your webcam.

6. Do not sit in front of a window unless you can close the blinds or drapes. On bright days, the camera will

try to close its iris to compensate, causing your face to look dim or possibly reduce you to just a

silhouette.

7. Reduce the clutter in the background and avoid distracting or bright images on the walls. It can be a

distraction for your audience and can detract from the quality of the image.

8. Please do NOT wear all white. Solid colors work best.

9. Avoid small prints, stripes, plaid or intricate patterns these can more or vibrate on camera. Unless

otherwise specified, shirts with logos and trademarks should be avoided also avoid noisy jewelry

(necklaces, bracelets, earrings) as it can be distracting to the viewer

10. Script Notes: If you want to reference a script or notes during your presentation, put them in a digital

format onscreen at a font size comfortable enough for you to read at a distance. Do not rely on sticky

notes or hard copies beyond the camera eye line.

11. Practising: A little time spent practicing this will go a long way toward making you appear more

comfortable in front of your webcam. Also, add extra enthusiasm! The camera tends to diminish energy.

12. If you plan to share your desktop, have the programs ready so that you are not struggling to find

content during your presentation.
