Hi. I can answed some of your questions. The brightness of your screen shouldn't effect the picturecomquality for the other person.
Yes, you can change your brightness in the middle of a call. Place a finger on any of the status bar icons, then perform a three-finger flick up. This will put you in the Control Center. Find the control that says, "Brightness: 5 percent," a flick up with one frominger in increase the brightness, and down with one finger to decrease the brightness. Press the home button to exit the Control Center and return to your Facetime call. When you're done with your call, just follow the steps above to turn your brightness back down. You may want to keel your brightness at 0 percent to save even more battery. Note that having the screen curtain on doesn't actually save battery life. On another note, do you have auto-brightness turned off? This will keep your brightness level the same no matter what if it's turned off.
