Star Wars Releases Official Background Images To Be Used On Video Calls
Star Wars

What better way to indulge your inner nerd and battle Zoom fatigue than by holding your next call in a galaxy far, far away? You guessed it? Use a Star Wars-created high-resolution background image based on destinations in the Star Wars universe for your next Zoom meeting.

Sure, you can probably find sub-par versions of some of these scenes with a quick Google search. However, Star Wars’ high-quality background images will ensure you fully harness the force. In other words, they won’t be grainy or glitchy, so you’re bound to look like a boss to whomever you’re Zoom’ing with (even if it’s your boss).

“StarWars.com is excited to present a galaxy of virtual Star Wars backgrounds that you can use in any online meeting. If you’re home and catching up with friends, talking with family, or on an important work video call, you can now do so appearing as if you’re somewhere in a galaxy far, far away,” the franchise revealed in a statement. “Choose from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back’s Hoth (wampa-free, thankfully), the ruins of the Death Star, and many, many more.”

Impressively, there are 20 different Stars Wars locales to choose from, with some offering several different vistas. Always dreamed of visiting Tatooine? Now you can.
