Zoom Pro Tips: 3 Ways to Liven Up Your Meetings

Bringing an element of fun and levity to a virtual meeting can make all the difference in creating a connection. Luckily, we have features to help you create a unique look for yourself and inject some spontaneous fun into your meetings with the option to apply them to all future meetings, or just the one you’re currently in. 

Here are three of our favorite features to help you express yourself in your next meeting: 

Let people know how you’re feeling in the moment with the in-meeting Emoji Reactions feature. This allows you to add a reaction onto your video, such as a heart, gasp, or celebrate emoji, without breaking the flow of the meeting.

Just click on the Reactions button to select from a wide range of emojis!! 

Create a fun and unique look for your meetings with the Studio Effects feature, which allows you to add customized eyebrows, facial hair, and lip color to your video feed. 

Perfect for happy hours, family get-togethers, or even a fun classroom activity, this feature can be accessed by clicking on the menu next to the video icon, selecting “Choose video filter,” and clicking the “Studio Effects” button in the lower right corner of the pop-up window. These changes won’t carry over to your next meeting. But, if you want to keep your unique look for the next meeting, simply click the “Apply to all future meetings” checkbox. 

Change your look with Filters that subtly change the color scheme. You can also use the Stickers feature to add fun and hilarious filters that change your appearance in your video feed, such as giving you rabbit ears, a top hat, and much, much more! These features are perfect for casual get-togethers or to add some flair to a classroom reading session.
