Hi there

Can a Webinar host screenshare with their camera off?

I'm hosting a Zoom webinar with a 3 panelists discussion (I remain with my camera off and behind the scenes).
I will spotlight the 3 panelists throughout the webinar for all attendees to see at the same time.

For about 10 minutes of the webinar, we want to show a short film. **I only want the attendees to see the video, not any panelists or myself alongside. **

Can I as the host (with my camera on), screen-share this content from my computer without turning on my camera?

Do I need to UNspotlight the 3 panelists before screensharing?

Thank you

Yes a webinar host can screen share while not having their camera turned on. Unfortunately I don't believe you can completely remove videos or even profile pictures from view when you simply want to highlight a shared video. I would recommend asking your panelists to turn off their videos at that time so your attendees can focus on the shared content instead.
