I assume his phone. I have no idea how to record via zoom. I don’t want to either.

My wife's work says that they need to keep their cameras on at all times during zoom calls.  She's on like 4-5 hours of calls a day.  She got so sick of it that each morning she films a 1 minute video of her pretending to listen along, nodding casually, then makes that video her looping Zoom background.  She then turns the camera off using the manual slide on her laptop, which just physically blocks the camera but doesn't actually shut off the camera, so her work just sees that she actually had her camera on.

If she has to talk, she can reach up and adjust the slide and it just looks like a momentary zoom glitch.

Wow, and I thought I was being clever using a prison cell as my background (my boss was not amused).

Just google "looping video zoom background".

Here are a couple of guides that pop up: https://lifehacker.com/how-to-create-a-looping-video-of-yourself-that-attends-1842843207 and https://www.pcworld.com/article/398997/best-funny-zoom-background-trick-put-yourself-in-a-looping-video-so-you-can-skip-the-meeting.html

If you do it right, the background image of you will be slightly smaller than your actual appearance, so you can just keep the background running when you need to be on camera - your body will block that portion of the background.  When you reach up to slide the camera on and off there will be a bit of a glitch, but glitches are pretty normal in Zoom.

If you're on camera, make sure your outfit matches the background. Hence why my wife does a new video every morning.

She actually doesn't abuse it - she actively participates in meetings . . . but having the camera on 4-5 hours a day is exhausting.    

Don't share this with anyone else at your work or they'll fuck it up for everyone.
