Missing your campus community? We are, too. That’s why University Communications created a special collection of 50+ Zoom backgrounds to help members of the UB community re-connect with fellow Bulls and show some UB pride during video conferences with students, faculty, staff, family and friends.
Choose from iconic locations, favorite hang-out spots, serene landscapes and more to bring UB with you, no matter where you are. That way, we can all feel a little more together while working, teaching or learning remotely.
Backgrounds are available to use through UB's main website. Simply download the zip file, choose your favorite scene, then add it to your Zoom account under “settings” within the “virtual background” option. Be sure to uncheck “mirror my video” to ensure logos and marks appear correctly.
You may review further instructions here or watch this video tutorial. To download the Zoom application for video conferencing, follow the instructions in UBIT’s Zoom Service Guide.
You can also check out even more Zoom backgrounds developed by UB Athletics on its Twitter account.
