==Original Abstract Submitted==

A solution for managing a video conference is provided. Multiple segmentation areas or shapes are stored and made transparent. The background is recorded continuously and simultaneously in a memory presented to a user for a second participant when they are participating in a video conference with a first participant. The segmentation or transparency of objects obstructing information in view of the video conference is selected based on attributes of the first or second participant, or attributes of the video conference. The segmentation may be utilized to provide a desired view, message, or information to individuals participating in, watching, or interacting with a first participant via video conferencing. The background includes static images, a live video feed, a recorded video feed, a static webpage, a non-static webpage, on any surface without obstruction when a first participant is in front of the surface sharing information due to segmentation/transparency of the first participant.
