Mom was right: keep your back straight. The camera shows everything about you, because there's nothing would distract viewer from your person. If you are frozen in an uncertain position the interlocutor will think you do not care at all and lose interest. Your body should radiate energy and mind, with the need to be flexible as possible and try not to look like a robot.
Watch out for the language of the body, because people will pay attention to it. If you have a habit of scratching your leg or stroking ear when you are nervous then try to find another use for the hands at the time of communication.
Smiling eyes. A broad smile is a great way to win, especially when it is confident and sincere. But bare your pearly white teeth are only half of the battle. Eyes betray a fake smile. This is exactly the case when fine lines around eyes are your advantage.
