receiving, via the second interface, an indication of user input for setting second properties for the screen share element and for the list of screen captures;
providing, during the virtual conference, display of the room for a plurality of participants of the video conference including the screen share element, the list of screen captures, and the participant video feed based on the first properties and the second properties;
causing audio comprising speech to be recorded in association with capturing at least one screen capture within the list of screen captures;
converting the speech to text; and
causing the text to be included as part of the at least one screen capture within the list of screen captures during the video conference.
9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the first interface and the second interface
provide for configuring at least one of positions, shapes or sizes of the at least one participant video element, the screen share element or the list of screen captures.
10 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
providing display of the list of screen captures within a breakout room associated with the room.
11 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
assigning, for each participant of the plurality of participants associated with the virtual conference, a participant video feed corresponding to the participant with a respective participant video element of the at least one participant video element.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the assigning is performed manually, via user selection by one or more of the plurality of participants, based on the first properties and second properties.
13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the assigning is performed automatically based on the first properties and the second properties.
14 . The system of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
storing, prior to providing display of the room, the first properties and the second properties in association with the room.
15 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:
providing, in association with designing a room for a virtual conference and prior to the video conference, a first interface for configuring at least one participant video element which is assignable to a respective participant video feed;
receiving, via the first interface, an indication of user input for setting first properties for the at least one participant video element;
providing, in association with designing the room and prior to the video conference, a second interface for configuring a screen share element for the room including cropping the screen share element and for configuring a list of screen captures for the room, the screen share element for sharing screen content during virtual conferencing, and the list of screen captures for displaying an ordered list of the screen content as captured during virtual conferencing;
