These elements also can be magnified during the encoding process where the media is compressed to further decrease the end-quality. Use a tripod. Steadier cameras lead to a better picture. A steady shot produces better clarity and thus generates more frames per second, especially in low bandwidth situations. Light the scene with contrast between subject and background in mind.
Lighting is crucial.
The subject should be well lit and against a darker background. A flat lit scene with little contrast will become fuzzy and washed out after encoding. Bright, clear and crisp video will produce better results. No fancy transitions or rapid pans, zooms Keeping the picture slow and steady will keep your subject clear and sharp. The more movement in the picture, the more work the encoders and the players have to do to generate and draw the pixels.
