Record a Video
- The CaptureSpace Recorder has four options of videos to record:
- Screen – Capture your screen along with voiceover audio.
- Screen & Webcam – Capture your screen as well allow viewers to see you speaking in a picture-in-picture setup using your webcam.
- Webcam – Record yourself speaking.

- For this example, we are going to choose the “Screen” option.
Record a Screen Capture

- If you choose to record the full desktop screen, then viewers will be able to see everything from your desktop background and desktop files to docks, tabs, and browser bars. If there is something you don’t want viewers to see then recording a selected area is the best option. You can place an outline around the window you want to record and everything outside that outline will not be seen in the final video.
- Click the record button at the bottom of the recorder window. A countdown will appear. You have 5 seconds to prepare.
- When you are finished with video content open the recorder again. The recorder will look different this time. It will be a bar at the bottom of the screen with a counter clock, draw button, play/pause, done (Save), and Cancel. Click “Done” if you are ready to move on.
