Use case
Record lessons with a camera overlay
Lesson videos work better when students see your face, the board or app, and captions they can follow muted. FrameCast is built for that composition on a Mac — without a multi-seat classroom cloud plan just to record.
Save a look once, pin it in the frame, and reuse the same presence across a course unit.
Lesson setup
- Choose a friendly camera shape and save the preset
- Place a recording frame on the material students need to see
- Pin the camera so pans do not lose your face
- Enable live captions when Speech Recognition is allowed
After class
Trim in the free browser Studio for a clean upload to your LMS or YouTube. Build an on-device video brief when you want an AI to draft a study guide from what was said and shown — you export that file yourself.
Classroom caution
Hide the key overlay before any credentials. If students appear on camera, follow your school’s recording consent rules — FrameCast does not replace that policy.
Takeaways
- • Face + UI + captions is the core lesson layout.
- • Presets and pin-in-frame keep a series consistent.
- • Briefs can help course prep; sharing remains your choice.
