RECORDING VIDEO IN PORTRAIT

DBE

Essentially, I wish to record a portrait video for use as my introduction on LinkedIn.  Why Zoom you ask; because it enables me to use a virtual background to increase the professional look.

 

So Does Zoom allow me to record myself in portrait mode?

 

Thank you

Hello @DBE 

Thanks for joining the Zoom Community! While you are able to record in any orientation during a meeting, the recording generated will include crop bars on the left and right sides. The audio will also be on a separate file. You may need to perform additional editing to accomplish your task. Good Luck!

Regards,
Don
