3 easy ways to record yourself and your computer screen at the same time

Yes, please do record a complete Descript tutorial. I downloaded it months ago, now where to go from there. 😊

[@meleciaathome]

I use screen cast o matic now. but i was looking for something that show split screen like how they are doing for youtube video reactions. You on one end and screen/content right next to you. not you in a minimzed box with screenshare full on screen. do you know any tool that can do this.

[@xqp5503]

Now you can do all of that and more (design Presentations, MKT, etc) with Canva

Hi there. I am a few steps further than this video and still full of questions. Maybe you can help with the following: - my course shall be available for closed cohorts. Meaning one cohort might start on Dec 1. The course takes 7 weeks. And it’s drip fed weekly content. Question: how do I set up the next course? The course which starts on Feb 2nd with new people? They all shall have lifetime access. Would you duplicate the whole course so that it provides with different urls, which are then used for marketing. How would you do it? Maybe I can’t see the forest for the trees!

[@witandwire]

Hi Julia, thanks for your message! Your strategy sounds like it could work. In fact, if you haven't already watched the Wit & Wire KZbin video titled "Full Tutorial: How to Create & Sell Online Courses with Teachable," I think it might even provide some additional insight.

Hi Melissa, I´m trying to figure out what´s the best format for my first online course. The first option is myself in a circle narrating the course and powerpoint slides as a background, as it is on regulations and has text to be shown, but I´m afraid this is an old fashioned style. Any suggestion or this is a way to go?

We'd recommend watching our full comparison video: 7 Best Online Course Creation Platforms in 2024 kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4XdeHR_r7VmqcU And we'd recommend downloading our Course Creation Toolkit.

Great video! Thank you for the information, it’s very helpful. It seems you showed a slide show with a video would these programs still work the same for commenting on KZbin or TikTok videos? Where you can start and stop the KZbin video on your screen while you continue to speak as a floating head in the corner. Or are their other programs that might be better for that? Thank you.

[@witandwire]

We'd be happy to answer this for you. Can you give us a timestamp of what you're referring to? - Team Wit & Wire

[@TheWildPrince]

@@witandwire I think I asked a silly question now that I think about it I was searching for the ability to place your talking head over a video in order to discuss or critique a video and have your face in the corner. Her video says “record your screen” so I imagine all of these programs work regardless of what is on your screen whether it’s a slide show or a video. Just had to get out of my own way. lol Thank you for responding though! 😊

Hello, are you familiar with LumaFusion or Final Cut Pro? I own both of these already ... wondering if doing this is possible with either of them. Thanks.

I need to record a powerpoint with my face for a class I am taking, so no need to really subscribe to anything (I think). What WOULD be the best, or is it no difference??

[@witandwire]

Great question! Our recommendation is using a free tool like Loom to record yourself, especially if you only need to record yourself once. Although Loom does cut off after 5 minutes. Alternatively, you could record yourself using Zoom by sharing your screen. We hope this helps, - Team Wit & Wire

[@adebisitinuola6046]

I need this too. Thank you for sharing

[@loolelstephen9598]

Great video. which one I can use at the same time I can show footage of other team members in the same video?

[@witandwire]

Great question. If you’re looking for 2+ people to present in the same video, you’ll need a tool that allows remote recording. Of this list, Descript (witandwire.com/descript) and Zoom have that option, as well as Ecamm (witandwire.com/ecamm) and Screenflow (witandwire.com/screenflow) on different paid plans.

[@janetbeattie6902]

Which one shall I use for creating videos for Instagram? Or all the suggestion support for multi size ?

Great question. Many of the tools do support sizing, but a lot of creators also record natively using their smartphone cameras. If you prefer to record social media videos from your desktop, I might recommend one of these two options: witandwire.com/descript witandwire.com/cleanshot (Mac only; no editing)

[@TheMelaninVillage]

This was super helpful! Do you know if there is a way to switch between having my camera be the main video on the screen during the portions when I am not doing an on-screen tutorial?

I couldn't tell if this is possible with the descript Thanks for such a clear tutorial!

[@graceeyeh]

Thank you for the video! Loom looks so much like Canva. I haven't used Loom before, but I have with Canva. I am wondering what are the differences? Any suggestions greatly appreciate :)

[@witandwire]

Great question! Loom is a screen recording tool, while Canva is a graphic design tool. Canva does include a recording feature (similar to Loom) for presentations, but you can’t record anything outside of Canva, and you also can’t do basic edits. In Loom, you have more video options, but you don’t actually create any designs. I hope that helps.

Thank you so much for the video. Is there any IOS APP that can do screen recording and then record front camera inside a circle?

[@witandwire]

Great question. I don’t know of one personally, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. My hunch is that it’s rare that people are recording a screen as well as their camera on a screen that size, especially since you’d need to use the phone screen to operate it, which would put the camera very close to your face. So I’d be surprised if it’s possible, but that’s just a hunch.

Hi there, thank you for this video. I had so much trouble with Descript. It would stop recording at 40 seconds no matter what I did. Customer service was horrible. I even went and purchased more memory and RAM but nothing. I wanted it because of all the features, especially the way you can edit through text. Is there anything you can think of that might be an issue? I use Windows 10 on my PC. Or, are there any other recording for computer/face that do the same thing? I used the free version of loom, but it doesn't have as many features as Descript. Thanks for any information. I am using this to create an online course.

[@witandwire]

Hi Linda! I’m so sorry to hear you had trouble with Descript. Without being able to see your computer and your specific use case, it would be hard for me to diagnose the problem, unfortunately. I’ve typically had good experiences with their customer support team, so that’s usually who I would recommend reaching out to to help you troubleshoot, or see if someone tech savvy in your life might be able to help you take a look.

[@margiecheatum]

hi, love your videos. I am a permanent makeup trainer that does face to face training but want to do some online training. The first training is using Sketch book on my ipad. How would I share the screen on my Ipad and also record myself at the same time.

[@witandwire]

Thank you! And great question. Although I don’t have an exact answer for you, I can advise that you’ll likely need a two-part setup because you’ll need a camera separate from your iPad, which could either be a smartphone or a camera. And depending on which equipment you use, it could require different recording tools. I’d recommend searching on KZbin to find another video, since it won’t be one-size-fits-all, but if you plug the iPad and camera into your computer, Ecamm might be an option: witandwire.com/ecamm (partner link)

[@row9628]

Nice video, thank you!! Just a quick question: how can I set the wallpaper around the recorded screen like you did?

[@witandwire]

Great question! This was added in post-production by our KZbin editor. I believe my video editor uses Adobe Premiere Pro.

Why does Loom upload to Cloud? That could be a problem for those using Mobile data like Me with the laptop tethered to the Tablets internet. I think a better option for Me is to just record a video of My face on a phone and do screan capture and add the two together after.

[@witandwire]

Loom is best for people recording screenshare videos on a computer connected to wi-fi, I'd agree with that. If the method of recording on your phone works better for you, I'd go with it! There are plenty of great options that can work, and each suits different people.

When I use zoom, everything looks good while recording, but then when I export and upload it looks low quality and gets labeled SD. Any ideas what I could do? I'm going to shoot my face with my phone separately and my screen share via zoom and iPad and see if that helps. Thanks!

[@witandwire]

Great question. It’s tough to say without looking at any individual tech stack, but in general, recording locally (ie not over the internet, like Zoom) will usually give you the best chance of your highest video quality. Beyond that, like you said, changing your camera is going to have the biggest impact.

[@SATPrepTutoring]

Thanks so much! Good point about how it would help to cut out the internet connection aspect. I also found a weird workaround where I can export the zoom video in 720. Open a new imovie project with a 1080 clip. I import the 720 zoom clip and then it lets me delete the original 1080 clip and export the prevoius 720 clips as 1080 and it looks better.

Would any of these tools also record two camera's at the same time and give the options to alternate between the two views, just to add more interest ?

[@witandwire]

Great question. It’s not possible with Loom, and I also don’t think it’s possible with Descript unless you get a bit clever. (You can easily upload multiple video tracks and edit them in Descript, but I haven’t tried a two-camera setup to know if it’s functional.) Screenflow works, and Zoom might work if one of your cameras “called in,” although I don’t think I’d recommend it. Another option is Ecamm: witandwire.com/ecamm, which I have a feeling might be the most intuitive. I hope that helps!

Hello, I like your video. What I want to do is to record my screen and record my voice. I want to login into my AWeber account and explain to my audience how to setup an autoresponder. I would like to record moving the mouse as I explain what to click. Can do this with loom or zoom? Which is easier? Thanks

[@witandwire]

Great question. I would recommend Loom (witandwire.com/loom) because it creates sharable recordings, while Zoom is better for live events. With Loom, you’ll get a sharable link and a page where your video lives on a landing page, or you can choose to embed it on a landing page on your own site. But with Zoom, you’d most likely have to download the recording and host it elsewhere. I hope that helps!

I'm interested in any other info you have done on Descript...thanks for the info...I definitely need tutorials for Dummies :)

How are you doing this video? With all the content and graphics.

I actually work with an editor. She’s great! katieleathley.com/

For some reason the Logitech software is not working on my MacBook Pro. And I read a few reviews saying there’s an issue with that. So I think I need to find other option.

[@witandwire]

I’ve heard that as well, so if you’ve found issues on your Mac, I agree about trying another brand. (It doesn’t happen with all Macs, but you’re definitely not alone in the feedback.)

[@mirandasaid1277]

I find it hard to add videos in the middle of an existing video for my course- do you know how to do it or any edit software you can recommend=?Loom doesn't allow me to do that. Thanks

[@witandwire]

I'm not sure I fully understand your question. Can you provide more detail?

[@MilenaHirkala]

Thank you

What kind of laptop I need to be using

[@witandwire]

Great question! For Macs, Melissa uses a MacBook Pro rather than a MacBook Air. You can see the differences in this review: www.tomsguide.com/best-picks/best-macbook For PCs or alternatives, you can see this review: www.rtings.com/laptop/reviews/best/by-usage/business We hope this helps, Team Wit & Wire

[@sumahomes-i4i]

Is it possible to change the background after the recording. Just curious?

[@witandwire]

Great question! It isn't possible with Loom or Zoom, but there are a few more flexible options with Descript (witandwire.com/descript) and to an extent, Screenflow. But if you're looking for that option as a core feature, I might recommend something like Tella (witandwire.com/tella)

[@sumahomes-i4i]
