Many companies have become remote teams since COVID, looking for fun online events for their distributed staff. A virtual karaoke party is a fantastic (and simple) way to bring your employees together virtually.
This post will show you how to host a great virtual karaoke party on Zoom (or Google Meet or Microsoft Teams), as well as how to find a great karaoke song for your remote team.
So, Let’s see how to do a virtual Karaoke party on Zoom?
How to do a virtual Karaoke party on Zoom?
A zoom is an excellent tool for bringing the group together on video. It’s simple to use compared to other software, and its gallery view allows you to see up to 50 players on the screen. The success of an online karaoke party is determined by who is hosting it, where it will be held, and who will be present.
Select a list of songs
Include and involve the entire crew in the song selection process. While you can check up popular karaoke options on the internet, not everyone may have heard of the songs you find and so has no idea what to expect. They’d also need the lyrics if they didn’t know all the words off by heart. Whoever’s idea is added to the playlist is also responsible for finding and posting the song’s lyrics and video, if available. Making a playlist together allows you to choose tunes that everyone is familiar with, and it pushes people to learn a new song for the benefit of their coworkers!
Obtain lyrics
After you’ve compiled your song list, the following step is to obtain the lyrics. They should be freely accessible as video subtitles or on a separate screen to read from during the sing-along. Have songs in a common language (such as English) or people’s native languages, depending on your group’s preferences, as long as the lyrics are accessible to obtain.
Run a mic test before starting
The most significant obstacle to an online karaoke party is poor audio. If you’re hosting virtual team karaoke on your own, double-check that everyone’s microphone and audio settings are set up and working properly. If you opt with an online company, their experts will take care of the sound and technology, leaving you free to focus on the singing. They’ll set up the Zoom connections, build multi-room parties so you can host multiple karaoke rooms at the same time, and interact with your team to help them relax.
Record the session
Making a recording of the session allows you to create everlasting memories. When you just want to see how much fun everyone had, you may go back and playback the recording.
Use a tipping jar
While leaving a sign of appreciation (such as a tip) for those vocalists who sang well is optional, it is great to do so. It can also inspire individuals who have been hesitant to sing or who have merely moved their lips silently to truly sing!
