12 Free Studio Ghibli Backgrounds To Spice Up Your Zoom Experience
We're loving every single one!
The pandemic is still ongoing. While some have already shifted back to a face-to-face setup, others still find comfort (and safety) in front of their screens.
There is nothing wrong with choosing to work or study online, but after almost two years of being stuck in the pandemic… maybe it’s time to spice things up. Yes, this is your sign to add a little fun to your online endeavors. You read that right—a little change wouldn’t hurt. How about updating your Zoom background? And here’s the catch: it’s Ghibli!
As always, Ghibli saves the day by releasing 12 free Studio Ghibli-inspired virtual backgrounds featuring scenes from their films. Just find a good spot with proper lighting, and you’re ready to show everyone that you’re in a Ghibli world!
Forgot to mention, it’s compatible with all known platforms! You don’t need to worry about how to quickly cover the things around you or spend a long time searching for a fitting background for your class, work, or video conferences.
If you check out the official page, you’ll find many more offerings. There are also other non-Ghibli phone and desktop wallpapers to choose from.

Nevertheless, the photo is still suitable for any event.
