The equipment needed here for your live webcam modeling job is to ensure you a successful revenue potential with Eye Candy Web Models.
1) You must have a PC, Mac or Full Size Laptop with at least 1 GB of RAM. If you are unsure if your computer is up to our standards or you need assistance finding the right equipment please contact us @ 1-800-685-9236.
2) You must have a direct high speed broadband Internet connection and your upload speed must be at least 0.8 Mbps. Cable or Fiber Optic connection is preferred. DSL is not the best for broadcasting so if you have DSL you should change your provider to cable or fiber optic unless they are not available in your area.
(If your upload speed is below 0.8 Mbps, a quick call to your internet service provider can boost your speed. Just ask for a speed upgrade. Test your upload speed here and click Begin Test)
Overall we recommend Logitech HD external cams over built-in laptop cams for quality purposes when webcam modeling. Even with the best camera out there, a strong internet connection, good lighting, and a fast computer with enough RAM are also essential to looking your best online when working as a live webcam model.
If you are just getting started as a webcam model with Eye Candy Web Models and can't afford a lighting kit you can use 2 lamps to your front right and front left. Make sure the lamps have 75 to 100 watt bulbs in them. Also make sure not to have to much light behind or above you when working your webcam job. Just taking these simple steps will make a huge difference in the quality of your live video chat when performing for our webcam modeling agency.
Note: This setup can be reversed left to right. You may also find moving the Back Light to the opposite side or even center can yield good results when webcam modeling. As an alternate for using diffusers, pointing your lights towards a white wall (or the ceiling in the case of your back light) can help diffuse the light giving you softer shadows for your webcam modeling room.
