For over a year now, we’ve been video calling from home. Apart from the occasional cat crossing the screen, there isn’t much to appreciate in your conference partner’s environment. That is until you discover how to change the background…
You can choose a standard background from those offered in your meeting application. But you can also add your own photos. It’s hilarious to add a photo of yourself listening attentively, so you can sneak away from time to time. It’s also fun to upload a photo of a recognizable environment, so your colleagues are confused and think you’re at the office after all.
You can also download Autofancy, which allows you to have a background that makes you feel like you’re in a car. Hyundai recently launched a number of backgrounds for Zoom and Teams meetings on its Facebook page, prompting us to check out other brands. Let’s take a look.
HYUNDAI SANTA FE
When you’re comfortably reclined and it can also be reflected in the background of your meeting. The advantage is that kids can also get a spot, if they adhere to the arrangements while wandering around in the image.
HYUNDAI TUCSON DISCO EDITION
It’s been a while since we’ve been allowed to go dancing in a disco, but that doesn’t stop Hyundai. "Party in the Otto," they thought. It creates the right atmosphere during the meeting. Hyundai wallpapers can be found here.
FORD BRONCO
Prefer to have the sun on your head? Then choose the photo of the Ford Bronco without a roof. Because the weather is slowly becoming pleasant again. Sun on your head: it’s right here.
LEXUS LS
A little more luxurious than the Santa Fe. In this Lexus LS, you’ll look like a big boss. This luxurious ambiance can be found here.
PORSCHE 911 SC
The retro side is captured with the interior of the Porsche 911 SC. It’s certainly exclusive. This Porsche and others can be found here.
BMW X5 M
A slightly different angle, but if you like being in the BMW X5 M, this wallpaper is for you. BMW backgrounds can be viewed here.
SHELBY MUSTANG GT500
Even more extreme with this Shelby Mustang GT500. There’s even a version with moving images, although the winding track might make your colleagues a bit queasy. GT500 wallpapers can be found here.
The ability to change your background during video calls adds a fun and creative element to virtual meetings. Whether you prefer a luxurious Lexus or a sporty Shelby Mustang, there are plenty of options to choose from to spice up your virtual workspace. So next time you’re on a video call, why not switch up your background and surprise your colleagues with a new setting? Who knows, it might just make your meetings a little more exciting and enjoyable.
