Megaconference

We had a room that was partially red. It wasn’t my favorite. Honestly my favorite video room was a solid bright blue - not really a standard color but it “popped” nicely on screen.

If you want to geek out on colors and room design, the Cisco guys aren’t the be-all-end-all, but they’ve at least put a lot of thought into their pallets: http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/solutions/collateral/collaboration-endpoints/color_ref_guide_c07-642558.pdf

Hi All,

 

I’m working with our Marketing team to design a backdrop to use in one of our conference rooms,  Understandably so we have to stay inside the boundaries of our official branding but they are recommending a red background, similar to the color in my signature below with a repeating brock logo in white.  I have some concerns as to how red is going to look on camera and would prefer a more neutral tone as the main background color.  Grey and white are also in the confines of our branding but they have to opposite concerns about those colors.  I know white is generally a bad idea for a background color but I figure a repeating logo on white would not be so bad.  Grey was my first choice but apparently grey with logos makes the backdrop look cluttered.  Has anyone used red as their main background color in video conference rooms?
