With the current situation around the coronavirus, more and more workers are finding themselves working from home. With working from home, comes video conferences. Most companies are adopting the Zoom platform to help offices stay connected via video conferences.

As workers that don’t have an office set-up at home, they’re struggling to find a way to make their workstations look presentable for these calls. Thankfully, Zoom has what they call Virtual Backgrounds. These Virtual Backgrounds work as a green screen to help cover up your background with an image of your choice.
