Is there some way to record Windows screen with zoom in high quality? Like in this video:
1 Answer
You have 3 options:
- find a software that supports recording with a zoom-in
- on Windows there is the screen magifier (I hope there is something similar on Mac?) which can be used to magnify the relevant screen part
- you record the video normally and then edit in post
If you go for the first option, it's easy to find several screen recording applications with Google, I tried the terms "screen recorder" "zoom-in" (just usign "zoom" spoils the search results with many hits for the Zoom meeting app. So use "zoom-in" with quotes). I can't recommend any software in particular.
My preferred method would be to do it in post, but that's a personal preference and of course your video editor has to support it. The feature, which you need, may be called a "crop" effect, whereas the zoom effect will animate the process of zooming in or out. Anyway, when you want to do it in post, make sure you can record a higher resolution than the output resolution, e.g. record in 4k and output to HD. However editing 4k video requires either fast hardware or a good video editor that can work with proxy files or similar resource saving alternatives.
That said, the edit-in-post option takes some effort. Option 1 or 2 may be the more economic way for you.
