Screenrec uploads your recordings, in the background, to our secure cloud storage (also free). It evens copies the link to your clipboard, so all you really have to do is click, record and paste the sharing link. Screenrec is suitable for video screen capture on Windows 7, 8 or 10 and Linux. The Mac version will also be available very soon. Without any third-party tools, you can record a video showing the screen on your Mac, your iOS device or even your Apple TV. Then with certain third-party tools, you can do that same recording but.
Recording your face and screen simultaneously is an interesting feature available to Mac users, and allows for the creation of a unique kind of video which is very useful to those creating tutorials, or for teachers recording online lessons and lectures for their students.
There are several external apps available for download that allow you to do this, but it is also possible to do using only the hardware and built-in features already available to you on your Mac.
The process is called Screen casting, and you can follow the steps below to learn how to do this for yourself.
Launch Quicktime Player
Launch QuickTime player (already available on your Mac). Select File, and choose New Movie Recording, to begin working on your video.
This will open a “camera window,” which you will use to record your face.
Adjust The View
In order to make sure that your camera window (the window which will show the recording of your face) appears above any other application that you will open on your screen during the making of your video, select View, and choose Float on Top.
Size And Position Camera Window
At this stage, you can resize and/or reposition the floating camera window that you just created anywhere on the screen, so that it will suit your particular video.
Make sure that the window is big enough so that your face is visible, but small enough to allow the material you need to present to be readable.
A common position for the camera window in videos of this kind is the upper-right-hand corner.
Set Up for Screen casting

As long as you include the portion of the screen which contains the camera window, your computer will record both what goes on within the camera window and what goes on in the rest of the screen.
Finish and Edit
To stop your recording, you can press the Stop button in the menu bar, or press the Command-Control-Esc keys simultaneously.
QuickTime also allows you to edit the video you’ve just created within the program itself. You can trim video clips or even just the audio, add music, and use a number of other features to create your ideal video. Then use QuickTime to export your video for the most convenient platform.
