While video chatting with friends, family, and coworkers is great way to keep in touch [1], at times, it can be challenging to make our calls creative [2]. Once the basic catch-up questions are asked and you've touched upon the weather, it's easy to think: now what? Luckily, Zoom has found a way to make v-chats a million times more fun with the option to add a background, and the outcome is so cool!
You can officially Zoom coworkers and loved ones while "on a holiday in Paris," sitting at Leslie Knope's desk in Parks and Recreation, or in the comfort of "your high-end kitchen," while not lifting a finger besides clicking upload — not even cleaning your apartment! Follow the steps here to change your Zoom background [3] and just make sure your picture's dimensions are 1,920 pixels by 1,080 pixels (or close to it). Check out a few of our favourites [4] and download them for yourself, they're all free!
