How to Make Your Camera Full Screen in Screen Studio

If you’re using Screen Studio for your screen recordings, you might have noticed that your camera feed typically appears as a small overlay in one of the corners. While this works great for most recording scenarios, there are times when you might want to make your camera full-screen.

Screen Studio makes it possible to switch to a full-screen camera view, which is particularly useful when recording video introductions or segments where you want to directly address your audience without showing your screen. This feature is currently available in the Beta version with the layout feature.

To show your camera in full screen, first make sure you’ve selected the layout layer in your timeline.

Then, add a new layout layer where you want the full-screen camera segment to begin. In the layout settings, simply change the Camera Layout option to Fullscreen, and you’re all set.

You might also explore alternatives like Borumi, which make it easier to create beautiful videos with different layouts.
