Creating lower thirds in Zoom for me and my guests

[ZoomuserJJ]

Hi,

Question 1: how do I add a lower third graphic for both myself and for zoom meeting guests? I want to display my name and title and also want to display the name and title for my guest as separate lower third in the same zoom meeting.

Question 2: How can I make the lower third to cover/block our Zoom profile name which also appears on the screen so that only the name/info show in the lower third is the name on screen?

Thanks for your help!

Hi @ZoomuserJJ 

This is not a feature of standard Zoom.
However, there are two ways you can do this
1. Look in the Zoom Marketplace. There are some apps there that allow you to add graphics like lower thirds
2. You could use software like OBS to take the video feed from your camera, add some graphics and then send that composition on to Zoom.
all the best

Thanks for your response. I did see there's apps in Zoom Marketplace but the two I've seen still don't allow me to make two lower thirds (one for me and one for my guest) only one for me. And I did try OBS but I've not found how to create two lower thirds (one for me and one for my guest). I've only seen how to create one lower third for myself but not for the other guest's screen/view). I've searched online and in the OBS forum and still haven't found such instructions.
