๐น 3 Rules for Painting a Video-Ready Zoom Background
Bright limes or bright greens mimic "green screens". Zoom and Microsoft Teams AI background blurs will glitch your hair and clothes into the wall. Use dark forest greens or muted sages instead.
Ring lights and desk lamps create harsh white hot-spots on Satin or Semi-Gloss walls that blind webcam sensors. Matte finish absorbs glare and gives your video feed a soft studio finish.
A medium-to-dark background (like Hale Navy or Rosemary) provides flattering automatic camera exposure calibration, making you look crisp, professional, and well-lit.
