Claim 12:
13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing thereon executable instructions that, as a result of being executed by one or more processors of a computer system, cause the computer system to at least:
obtain first image data from a first user device, the first image data captured by a camera device connected to the first user device;
obtain second image data from a second user device;
generate a video conferencing application image comprising the first image data, the second image data, and a marker which distinguishes pixels contained within the first image data from other pixels comprising the video conferencing application image;
send the video conferencing application image to the first user device, wherein sending the video conferencing application image to the first user device causes the first user device to:
identify the first image data in the video conferencing application image based on the marker;
replace the first image data in the video conferencing application image with third image data obtained from the camera device to produce a modified video conferencing application image; and
render the modified video conferencing application image in a virtual computing environment displayed on the first user device, wherein the virtual computing environment is provided by the virtual machine and is distinct from a computing environment of the first user device.
