Want to spruce it up? No problem, you can always use a virtual background to replace your real background with a new, customized scene.
3. Enhance your presence
Dress for success by presenting a professional environment for your videos, such as an office or home setting for your webcam background. The better you look, the better you feel, and the more effective you will be for your video. Impress your audience.
4. Amplify your message
Virtual backgrounds are a great way to help make your video content stand out and become more impactful. Just select the image that best highlights your message and objectives.
