Messaggio simple rules that will give you better results. 
Light, light, light. Adequate lighting will result in sharper images and also result in better focus as your camera aperture closes automatically. This results in a better depth of field. Avoid hard shadows by bouncing the light off the ceiling. Look for lights at your local photographic or hardware store which offer 500w - 800w. Using 2 lights properly placed will soften annoying shadows.

Use a tripod. Excessive camera movement will strain the compression codec used on internet video resulting in blocky images. When using a tripod only the areas that have movement will be processed from one frame to the next. With less processing required your images will be sharper with no extra effort on your part.

Avoid the temptation to add music. Natural sound is far more real and allows the viewer to better 'feel the moment'. Music also adds additional strain to the compression codecs mentioned above.

Most of all - have fun!

Messaggio Simple hotel room lighting trick 
1) Use natural light whenever possible. Ask for a room with an outside window facing south or west, and film during the day - natural light works best, most hotel/motel rooms are equipped with lights that are under-powered by themselves for good videography, and a set of studio or construction lights is just one more thing you've got to lug up from the car.

2) Remove that ugly bedspread from the bed and hide it in the bathroom - most hotel/motel bedspreads are dark colored, have busy patterns, and are generally laundered much less often than the underlying sheets (which hopefully get changed every time somebody rents the room.)

3) You're renting the sheets, too - use them! Since most motel bedsheets are white, they make great reflectors. Take the top sheet from the bed, open the window's heavy drapes, and affix the sheet in place of the curtain - those big clothespin-looking clamps work great. The sunlight from outside, filtered through a white sheet, gives you a nice, bright, yet soft and natural light.

4) Move the room's lights around so they shine on the now exposed (and reflective) white bottom sheet - it'll bounce more light up on your business, and your hot action won't fade into invisibility against that ugly, dark, bedspread.

Just remember - put light on what you want to see in the final product, and the more, usually the better. You'll very seldom see a homemade porn on this (or any other) site that's overlit and washed out, but you'll see a million of them that are underexposed and in which you can't tell what's going on because they're so dark.

Messaggio Avoid backlight 
I cannot say how obvious it is to avoid backlight when filming. If you are going to film a cumshot, keep in mind that cum is white, and will not show up well with backlight or a light background.

In my opinion, it is also important to avoid anything that prevents the free flow of semen. If you want a cumshot to the mouth, tits, cunt, etc. keep enough distance so that the cum will shoot through the air. If you do not shoot very far, like me, then position the "target" so that gravity will help.

Finally, if you are uncut, make sure the foreskin is pulled back.

Messaggio Don't zoom! 
Another thing to remember is that zooming in decreases the ability of the lens to transmit light. So under low light, things will get worse when zooming in.
Apart from that, all camera movement is being exaggerated while zooming in, giving very shaky cam results.
Best to move the camera closer!
