    Nice! I built something along these lines but far more janky. My setup is a clamp-mount mic boom arm and an L-shaped bracket, along with a mic-to-1&#x2F;4&quot; adapter. Boom clamps to the monitor arm, reaches over the monitor, then the short end of the L is attached to the arm via the adapter. My webcam has a 1&#x2F;4&quot; screw built in, so that attaches to the long side of the L.<p>I&#x27;ve been using it for years, works great to get the camera down for calls and back up out of the way when not needed. Only problem is that it&#x27;s not super stable so I have a small spirit level insert glued to the top of the camera to make adjustments easier.<p>Edit: somewhat recent photo of my setup, including the webcam: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;ip3ff4F" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;ip3ff4F</a>

    External USB C monitors are getting cheap enough to make a dedicated 2-way mirror teleprompter style webcam setup reasonable.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=2AecAXinars" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=2AecAXinars</a>
