How to hide from your boss on Zoom 🙈 Here's how to do it on your next Zoom call:
﻿1. Take a picture of your room with your webcam (without you in it)
﻿2. Use zoom virtual background and set the virtual background to the picture of your room. Make sure you keep your computer webcam in the exact same position.
﻿3. Toggle on the "I have a green screen" and then set it to the color of your blanket. A green blanket works best, but any distinct bright color blanket should work.
﻿4. Disappear yourself!
﻿
﻿Note: depending on the lighting, you might notice some artifacts along the very edges of your blanket. This is hard to avoid in a live Zoom meeting call, as it’s a limitation of the live green screen feature. In this video example, I made the edges disappear at the very end by editing and merging it with the virtual background image using Premiere
