Virtual background images for Zoom

In an increasingly digital and globally connected world, video meetings are a staple of everyday communication. On any call, whether it’s for business or pleasure, the Zoom background image is the first thing to grab attendees’ attention. So why settle for a basic office or home setting as yours? Personalized virtual backgrounds are increasingly popular. With Picsart, you can get creative and have fun with yours, and still take care of business.


Keep the following tips in mind when creating virtual backgrounds for Zoom though. Ensure your background is sized at 1920px by 1080px. It’s a good idea to create several design variations too. Simplify the process by selecting from our template library. Choose one that appeals to you and then wherever you take it is entirely your call. You could start with a professional Zoom background featuring geometric shapes and colorful patterns, for example. Alternatively, templates with a simple Zoom background such as a gradient, texture, or solid color might be a better fit. Or you could go rogue with a creative, quirky background. Think galaxy vibes, natural scenes, architecture, and floral designs.  


When you’ve selected your Zoom virtual background, it’s time to start customizing. Use the text editor to add words or messaging (perhaps your name, title, company or slogan). Select from various fonts and ensure your text color is legible against your Zoom virtual background. Next, add stickers, elements, or photos to liven things up. A company logo might even make your background look more official and professional. With everything in place, use the adjust tools to edit lighting, color, and clarity until your background looks just right. Create a polished finish by adding a photo effect or two. 


As you near the end of the creative process, move elements around, resize and re-orient everything until you’ve achieved your vision. Once your Zoom background images are ready, download them in high resolution and get ready to show them off on your next call.
