Add a Device Frame Around Your Video

In Camtasia for Mac version 2.0, you can insert your screen recordings into a device frame such as an iPad (black or white), iPhone 4 (black or white), iMac, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, or Thunderbolt display. The device frame is ideal for Mac OS product demos or App Store application demos. The device frame provides context for viewers as to which devices are supported for a product or application. The device frame Video FX also gives your videos that professional polish similar to Apple's tutorial videos.

  1. Click the Video FX tab.
  2. Drag the Device Frame video fx onto a clip on the timeline.
  3. Click the Properties button Properties button.
  4. On the Basic Properties and Effects tab, select the device frame from the dropdown menu.
  5. If you select iPad or iPhone 4 as the device frame, you may want to select the Horizontal option to change the orientation of the device.
