SEE BELOW FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DISPLAY OBS ON ZOOM, TEAMS OR OTHER SOFTWARE

This video shows you how to use free, easy-to-use software--OBS Studio--to deliver your presentations on Zoom, Teams, and other videoconferencing platforms just like the weatherman. Using a green screen and OBS, you can stand "inside" your presentation and keep the focus on you as well as your content. Don't give up your entire screen to boring documents! The audience wants to see you!

OBS will allow you to use PowerPoint as a virtual background on Zoom and other platforms. Once you see how easy it is, you'll wonder why you weren't doing it this way the whole time!

INSTRUCTIONS:

Once you have OBS configured as described in this video, you'll need to do one more thing in order to display it on Zoom, Teams or your software of choice. At the lower right-hand corner of OBS you'll see a button that reads "Start Virtual Camera." When you click that button, your computer will see a new "camera" as if you've actually plugged one in (in reality this is a "virtual" camera because you haven't plugged one in to the computer, you've just created one using OBS software). Once you have OBS configured and you're ready to go, click "Start Virtual Camera" and then head over to Zoom (or Teams, WebEx, Discord...whatever). In the Zoom/Teams/WebEx settings, you'll be able to select your camera from a drop-down menu. Using that menu, select the OBS Virtual Camera. Now whatever is on OBS will be broadcast over Zoom!
