Blur Camera Background

I'd love to be able to blur my camera background (similar to how Zoom and others do it), to hide any unwanted clutter.

    With the new macOS update, you can do it natively !

    You can do it already if you’re on macOS Sequoia.

    There is a chance that we will work on a feature that allows you to modify camera visuals in the editor. Meanwhile, you can achieve this effect before you start recording by adjusting those settings.

    Im Happy without that I use my iPhone as camera. Mac OS has the features to blur

    Adding my input to this. I use ScreenStudio to record video explainers for features on our SaaS platform, at least weekly. I have ~nowhere in my house with a flat background, it’s a nightmare. I really need this feature.

    No background in studio camera recordings

    Is it possible to have it where there is no background at all when you're recording your headshot? I’ve been using an app at work that can knock out the entire background and only have your head in the portrait facing camera. That way if you don’t want anyone to be distracted by your background, it will just be your head with nothing else….

      I need this too! I do a lot of public facing videos, and I would love to not have to set up my apartment in “studio mode” all the time to make it look professional. Backgroundless/green screen mode would let me make more videos without having to move a bunch of furniture around.

      need a mode with no background, so that only head shows and we can layer on top of the screen recording

    Background remover for people instead of bubble

    Similar to what Veed does. See here:

      If you added this I'd instantly purchase a license. I was just looking for something that can do this. It helps when making a TikTok like this where you want a floating head but to see as much of the screen as possible.

      I assume that you can also use Veed to remove the background and update the camera file in the Screen Studio project package.
