Setup


Setup for online lessons is a simple process. External web cams are necessary for proper viewing angles. Web cams best suited for online lessons include features such as Carl Zeiss optics, 2 mega pixal autofocus, and auto tracking. USB extension cables may be required to correctly position the external web cam and still have enough length to connect to a computer. The following pictures demonstrate the setup of an external web cam and methodology books.
The best way to setup an external web cam is to attach it to the arm of a mic stand. Simply swing the arm of the mic stand over the keys of the piano/keyboard so that the web cam can be positioned with a top down view. Adjust the zoom of the web cam or the height of the mic stand so that 2 or more octaves are shown in the video picture.
