Great tips and very helpful for anyone.I prefer using a black background all the time . Also I wear solid color for wardrobe like blue shirt . The audio I try to get the best and clear as possible. I use adobe audition and premier pro for editing . Another thing the angle you should stand at front camera for some reason I prefer my right side .

In reply to Jill Adler. A matte sky blue or Royal blue works best all round I find. If you have dark hair/ dark complexion it tends to get lost on a black background. White backgrounds bounce the light back and make you look dull. Grey is better than black or white.

Do CDs care what color your backdrop is? I have gray but will black or white work in a pinch?

Excellent source of information! It’s been a huge grey area, and of course due to the nature of the beast there really isn’t any feedback regarding the quality of the self-tape you’ve submitted. Thanks!
