Good to Know
🎥 Full video setup? Background improvement plus webcam positioning, lighting, cable management - complete professional video presence.
Renting? Removable solutions like freestanding shelves, command-strip artwork, or backdrop screens work without damaging walls.
Limited space? Sometimes corner desk position works better than facing into room - gives better background options.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a good Zoom background?
Tidy, uncluttered, not too busy. Bookshelf, plain wall, or simple artwork work well. Avoid windows behind you (backlit silhouette), messy rooms visible, or busy patterns that distract. Sometimes just repositioning desk makes huge difference.
Do I need a green screen or backdrop?
Not usually - natural backgrounds look more professional than virtual ones. Simple tidy wall or bookshelf beats fake beach background. Physical backdrop (plain fabric/screen) works if your actual room is unfixable.
Can you just tidy what's already there?
Often yes - add a shelf with some books/plants, hang some simple artwork, or reposition furniture. Small changes make big difference. Sometimes mounting whiteboard or installing floating shelves transforms the space.
What about repositioning my desk?
Often the quickest win - moving desk so better wall is behind you can completely change how you look on camera. I can advise on positioning and help move furniture if needed.
How much stuff should be visible?
Enough to look lived-in and professional, not so much it's distracting. Few books, plant, bit of art - not your entire life story or complete mess. Think hotel lobby, not storage unit.
