Just use OBS software, have all the cameras configured on the same, place those videos as per your requirement and then enable virtual camera. Then you can use the virtual camera in zoom. This way you can get views from all the cameras simultaneously.
Here you can have picture in picture as well.

Which mac laptop are you using? I am considering getting the new M1 pro but not sure if it will serve my purposes. Thanks,
Jeff

I use a desktop Mac, not a laptop. Just the standard version with the maximum memory you can afford!

Hi Nicole, I just joined Vibrant Music, so you can direct there if the answer is there. I have a MacBook Pro and a Samsung phone which i want to use for the overhead camera. When I tried a USB it said it would not sync. How do I change between main view of me and the overhead view?

If you join the meeting from your phone (as it if it is a separate person) then you can spotlight the video when you want to switch to that view.

@@ColourfulKeys Thanks, I will check out how to spotlight.

@@barbmiller9285 just click on the video you want at the top and you should see it in the menu right there. It's pretty quick and simple.

Thanks Nicola! Which webcam to buy?

Any Logitech camera should be good. Mine is a c920.
