Here’s how to make yourself look like a potato (or Joe Exotic) on Zoom video calls

Here’s how to do it.

It’s the photo that went mega-viral recently that hopefully you’ve all seen.

A picture of a Microsoft Teams call in which someone’s boss used a filter that turned her into a talking potato, but she can’t turn it off, “so she was just stuck like this the entire meeting.”

It’s hysterical, it’s amazing, and now a lot of people want to know how they can do it on Zoom or Google Hangouts, perhaps to pair with hilarious backgrounds.

Well now, you too can be a potato! It’s all thanks to a program called Snap Camera, which uses SnapChat filters and lenses on video chat programs.

Here’s a step-by-step on how to pull this off:

1. Download Snap Camera

2. Open whichever video platform you use

That can be Zoom, Teams, Skype, Google Hangouts and others. It can be used with YouTube, too.

3. Find your video input settings in your platform and set it to Snap Camera

4. Choose your filter
