Zoom virtual backgrounds
Virtual backgrounds for Zoom, Meet and Teams that look like a lit wall, not a stock photo: soft colour that keeps the attention on your face.

1920 × 1080
16:9, as Zoom asks, at least 1280 × 720. The studio's 16:9 frame is the same shape.
- You
You cover the middle, so the edges are what people see. Put the colour there, keep the centre calm, and leave text out: your own view is mirrored.
Zoom background: 1920 × 1080 pixels.

Six to start from
Rendered at 16:9 by the studio's own renderer. Each opens there at this size, ready to change and export.
Calm behind the head
Busy backgrounds make the background-removal edge around your hair more visible. A soft gradient with its brightest part off to one side hides the edge and lights you from behind.
Darker than you
Pick a background a little darker than your face and you stand out; a pale one makes cameras expose for the background and darkens you.
Works in Meet and Teams too
Google Meet and Microsoft Teams take the same 16:9 image. Upload it under background effects; Teams recommends at least 1920 × 1080 as well.
Other sizes
The same studio, set to another place a background goes.
