Pro-Tips for Blitzz and ManyCam
- For virtual backgrounds, it helps if you sit in front of a single solid color that doesn’t match your skin tone, hair, or clothing. You can sit in front of an empty wall or hang a colored sheet behind you. This will help the ManyCam separate you from your background. (Or purchase a green screen from Amazon)
- Have a good amount of light focused on your face and upper body. Ideally, set up more lighting from the front and less from the ceiling.
- Please note: The ManyCam will add a lot more load on your CPU. Keep this in mind if running on a lower capacity machine.
Please note: This does not work on mobile. - Enjoy adding more fun to your next Blitzz call!
