Can I use a virtual background behind my camera? (Green screen effect)

Tella does not currently have a built-in virtual background or green screen effect that removes and replaces your physical background in the camera feed.

Workarounds

If you need to hide your physical background, here are some options:

  1. For Mac users, you can use macOS' built-in video effects feature that lets you overlay a virtual background behind your camera. You can find more information about how to do that on Apple's support site here.

  2. Use a third-party virtual camera app:

  3. Use a physical backdrop: A simple solid-colored curtain or portable backdrop behind you creates a clean, professional look without any software.

  4. Use Tella's layouts strategically: Choose layouts where your camera is smaller or positioned in a corner, making your background less prominent.
