How to change the Zoom video conferencing background

Zoom is a tool that’s gained quite a few years in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s become the go-to tool for online meetings, and online classrooms. With a lot of people working or studying from home, one rather unusual problem they’re facing is where to set up shop in the house/apartment. Not a lot of people have home-offices set up and many cohabit their living places making it harder to take up space for a classroom or office. To that end, if you’re worried about privacy or just don’t want the mess in the background to show up during a video meeting, you can hide it by adding a background to your live video. Here’s how you can change the Zoom video background. You do NOT need a green screen for this however if you have one, Zoom can accommodate it as well.

Zoom is not open source but is free for use and includes the ability to host up to 100 participants, to have unlimited 1 to 1 meetings, and to record Zoom meetings, a 40 minutes limit on group meetings, free screen sharing options, etc. These features are perfect for small companies and freelancers who wish to reduce communication costs while having quality video conferences.
