Your video background is like your personal billboard, it's what sets the scene and sets the tone for the call. It can either make or break the perception of your professionalism, credibility and make you look like a Zoom pro or an amateur. That's why the green screen trended. It allows users, especially people working from home, to create a professional-looking environment without changing locations.

But how complicated is this setup? Is this really the kind of rabbit hole you'd like to fall into?
