Zoom’s virtual background feature allows you to select and display an image or video behind you instead of showing your real surroundings. To allow Zoom to detect the difference between you and your background, this feature works best with:
- Uniform lighting
- A solid color behind you
- Clothing that is a different color than your selected virtual background
In addition to Zoom’s default options, you can upload a custom virtual background. The college created some branded backgrounds for use during lectures, appointments and meetings that you can download through the links below. You can find generic UMaine-branded backgrounds at the Division of Marketing and Communications website.

If you plan to record a virtual event and may share it online, the event’s host must:
- Obtain permission to record the event from all participants if they plan to publish a recording online. Zoom offers an option to enable a recording disclaimer in its settings. Events may also be hosted as a webinar, rather than a meeting event, to negate this requirement. This guidance was developed in response to questions about events like seminars. Additional guidance regarding virtual events that involve students is available on the UMS IT website.
- Obtain a completed copyright license agreement from speakers who are not affiliated with the University of Maine.
- A photo release is recommended for speakers, regardless of whether they work for the university. The form is available online here.
