Pin the camera inside the recording frame
A floating camera is easy to lose when the recording frame pans or zooms. FrameCast can pin the camera inside the crop so your face rides along with the action.
That is the difference between a cam bubble that drifts off-composition and a presentation look that stays locked while you follow the mouse.
Set the frame, then pin
Turn on Pin to Capture Frame from the menu bar. A viewport appears on the display, and the camera stays inside it as it follows your mouse. Click-through lets the overlay ignore the mouse so you can work in apps underneath.
The recording still keeps the whole screen. When you stop, the editor starts on the Recorded viewport motion, so the exported crop follows the same path and your face stays in the shot.
Why demos look better
Viewers keep a consistent face + UI relationship. You avoid jump cuts just to “find yourself” again after a zoom.
Combine pin-in-frame with face tracking, a saved look, and optional live captions when the lesson needs presence without a second camera operator.
Takeaways
- • Pin keeps the camera inside a moving recording crop.
- • Click-through lets you work without fighting the overlay.
- • Ideal for product demos and tutorials that pan and zoom.
