I am trying to do short presentations (3-5 slides) and would like my video (MacBook Air M2, if that’s of help) in the corner, explaining what’s on screen at the same time. The only audio would be from my headset or computer microphone.

Google Slides used to have the feature but I can’t find it anymore. The easier the better (so recording once rather than recording the video, then overlaying it on the slideshow would be better).

Thanks!

    You can do a local recording with zoom, you can have a meeting by yourself, share screen, and then position the camera where you want it, and record. when you finish the recording and the meeting, the file will be processed and saved on a local folder without doing anything else.

    I consider that the easiest method.

    I will get hate for this but you can do this with MS Teams.

    Call yourself, present your screen, then record.

      Thanks; will the quality be the same as if I recorded it locally? As in, will it take the video and audio from me, or from my uploaded call?

      Thanks.

        I am unsure, my guess would be the quality would be the ms server side as the video is stored in OneDrive.

    You can do this with PowerPoint. After recording it makes the video an object on your slide so you can position it anywhere. Different on each slide if needed.

      Does it have a record function? I’ve tried with the Mac’s built in screen recording and I have no idea when it’s actually doing anything.
