Use the Zoom Immersive View feature to recreate the feel of your class or conference room by placing up to 25 video participants onto a single virtual background. You can adjust the participants as needed and even use your own unique background.
Starting Immersive Views
- Start a meeting or webinar as the host.
- In the top-right corner, click View .
- Click Immersive View.
- Select one of the following options for placing participants into the scene:
- Automatically: This will include as many participants as possible in the scene you select. Participants can be swapped out and arranged during the immersive scene.
- Manually: You will add or remove participants as you wish. If more than are allowed for a particular scene are selected, extras will be removed.
- Select the scene you would like to use. Each scene designates the max number of predefined places for attendees.
