# Camera

The **Camera** feature lets you record a video directly from your camera and overlay it on your video or interactive demo. You can also upload a pre-recorded video instead. Use this to add a personal touch, such as a face-cam narration or a presenter view, to your demo.

## Best practices

- **Use a stable camera angle.** Ensure your camera is steady and well-lit before starting the recording.
- **Test your microphone first.** Check that the correct microphone is selected to avoid silent or low-quality audio.
- **Use the Fine-tune option for accuracy.** When placing a recording at a specific moment, use millisecond precision to sync it with the demo action.
- **Enable subtitles for clarity.** If your recording contains speech, turn on subtitles to improve accessibility.
- **Preview before applying.** Always use the Play icon to review the recording in context before clicking Apply.
