Background

Don’t know how to change your background? We have a quick tutorial and a more detailed tutorial below. We have also included red images you can use (see buttons below).

First, the quick tutorial:

During the All-Staff Zoom Call (July 29) or any other zoom call:

Save your red image to your desktop/device in a format like JPG or PNG

Click the ^ arrow next to the Video button in Zoom.

Select Choose Virtual Background and pick your red background.

Before You Start

Ensure Zoom is updated: Use the latest version of Zoom to access the virtual background feature.

Prepare your image: Have a red background image ready (e.g., a solid red image or an OPSSU background). Save it to your computer in a format like JPG or PNG.

Steps to Change Your Zoom Background prior to the meeting:
