Cell phone camera on a little holder pointed at a piece of paper. Then I join as a second participant, mute it, and turn the volume off.

Or ipad and apple pencil on google docs jamboard using Duet to sketch things out.

The one issue I’ve found is that most services seem to retain _much_ less precision for participant video versus screen sharing. Text can often become really blocky and blurry.

I did something similar, but used OBS. There are a few ways to feed video from a cell phone into it. Gives you the chance to do any zooming/cropping/etc to account for limitations in where you can place the phone. As well as adjust brightness/contrast/white balance if you’re really anal about that kind of stuff.

From there I open the feed in a “projector” window and screen share that.
