How to Answer the Hangout Call and Join into the Filmstrip
When you have been invited into the filmstrip of a Hangout Video Call or Hangout on Air, there are many ways to join into the filmstrip. Here is a visual guide of one of the paths you can follow.

This post will give some guidance for each step shown, but there is a post with many more details for Hangout Mastery members... you should join us so you can learn hangouts in the most helpful place around... www.bit.ly/HangoutMastery

(1) Open up the Hangout Sidebar on the Right Side of a Google+ Desktop web browser window, then look for the Green Camera icon and click it.

(2) You'll see the Hangout Message Box chat area as shown here.

(3) You can verify who else is invited to the Video Call.

(4) When you see the list of others invited you can get back to the front part of the Hangout Message Box by clicking "cancel" (I know, it seems strange).

(5) If you have decided you'd like to join into the Video Call, click the Green Stripe up top and you'll be on your way into the filmstrip.

I've listed the steps this way since many times you may want to see who else is also invited to the call to determine if you want in or not. You could simply go from step (1) to step (5) if you don't want to check who the other participants will be.

More important details on this process are ready for you to see inside the Hangout Mastery private community (part of a paid membership). Find out more here www.bit.ly/HangoutMastery
