welcome back if you ever wondered why suddenly you are having meetings in the workplace all
your friends and family and they've suddenly transferred into potatoes or some other comedy
effect well we'll show you how and how to put these filters into Microsoft teams hello and
welcome back again so here we go we've also mentioned that people are now using snapchat
filters in with Microsoft teams but how are they doing that well quite simply they've gone online
and they've downloaded the snap camera app the s folks have you got a snap camera snapchat
comm you can then download an effect which will allow you to embellish your image with different
special effects clicking on download takes you the system requirements and legal license now the
legal license I would encourage you to read this simply because there is quite a few legal aspects
in there are you happy with it are you not happy with it that's a decision how you need to make
for yourself and also you've got to think about if you're using this on a works PC what the policy is
for installing applications on a work PC now I use this on my own PC which I can connect to work for
therefore I circumvent any sort of like a standard of business conduct policy that my company uses
once you're happy that you want to install this software click on I've read the agreement popping
your email tell me you're not a robot make sure your machine has got the minimum operating system
and hardware requirements and download the application once downloaded the snapchat snap
cam application for PC or Mac OS gives you this type of interface now you can select and change
the live feed Here I am now as a tomato or an alien and there's a find face you can see it
impose my background on this one or in fact I can give myself a beard much hilarity can ensue from
this and it could brighten up your day but how did you get this feed into Microsoft teams well let's
check that out here we are in Microsoft teams and I've just done a quick meet me so here I am and
here is my lovely beard that's been superimposed by the snack chat snap cam application so once
with that done how do I get this image here so click on your icon in the top right hand
side of the screen down into settings now from this settings you can set obviously dark mode
high contrast however you want to do it and also you got devices this is where you set your audio
devices your speakers your headphone what mic you're using where you are secondary ringer but
also the camera section now you can see normally I've got a Microsoft LifeCam and that will give
me an image I'll have to stop the video feed for this and hang-up back into settings devices
only as you can see I've got quite a busy background with my workshop but you always
work from home from but I've got my camera set to Microsoft LifeCam right that's why I'm normally
set us and people see me as I am however go to the drop-down box and after you've installed the snap
camera app you'll get snap camera as a function click on that and it will go to the last filter
that you've had in close to close that section back into the team go into your meeting meet now
as you would normally and Here I am with my effect now they changed the effects on the fly I have
found that sometimes the snap camera application automatically loads or you have to get it from
your Start bar also the use of favorites as well is quite handy find something that you like
as it is a favorite and away you go looking a bit like a Roswell alien but spooky that has
to be said anyway there you have it clicking off it the terms the picture to normal thanks
very much for watching this is how to use the snap cam application with Microsoft teams and
make your meetings perhaps a little bit easier things to remember it to be important look your
standards of Business Conduct what can you possibly put onto your work PC more
than likely nothing because they may be work applications that have been ratified by your
IT department I'm using this on my home PC which I can use pass the authentication to
connect to some Microsoft teams meetings with my colleagues and friends and family so that
doesn't apply for me so be warned you can't just go in storing this according to your IT
policy on your work PCs check with them I don't think I think it's gonna be a no-no
but it's worthwhile checking so we don't want you getting in trouble by installing applications and
filters just cuz it's funny anyone needs a job thanks for watching check back for more videos
in the series I'll leave you that for myself as a tomato check back for more videos catch you soon
you
