    Dizzy Newb question: How do you usually position your web cam?

    I've only been camming for 2 days and i am trying to figure out the best place to put my camera? Close up or far away? I have a logitech pro c920. So far I just have it on top of my lap top and have pretty close shot of me to the waist. I a constantly fiddling with it tilting it up and down. Sometimes showing my face. Sometimes not. During a show I move it back and down a bit so they can see more and walk closer to the camera sometimes for a close up. One of my best assets is my legs and they are long so I can never get them all in the camera! So maybe I should keep the camera farther away most of the time?Of course then I have to clean more of my room because more will be in the shot! lol! Will the guys still be able to hear me okay? I dont necesarly want my laptop in the shot but i guess it would have to be? How do you position your web cams?

    I just put it on top of my laptop because it seems to be the easiest for me. I usually fiddle with it no matter what position the webcam was in to get the good angles, because Streamate (the site I am on) is in widescreen, so it really is hard to show your whole view without being too far away. I have used tripods in the past, but I just stick to the webcam on the laptop because it works the best for me. I move around in privates, etc quite frequently, and I don't really mind. You could also change up the way you position yourself in front of the camera, or stack your laptop on something higher, etc.

    I position mine at the top of my my laptop. I mean it's just the easiest way for my to maneuver things, plus I like to be kind of up close and personal when I talk to people. I also need to be close to the camera to get goods shots of myself when I get tipped or in pvt, just more convenient. I've seen girls position their camera far away before, but never watched them long enough to see what they do when they get tipped. The last girl I saw do that switched back to the cam positioned on her laptop, so maybe that other method didn't work for her.
