  • How to add a facecam? - More specifically

    WHATUP BROS! :D

    I have been off video making for a good long while but in my absense my channel has grown to a good 37k subs, and I now that I am coming back, I'd like to try and add a new dimension to my videos! However I have yet to find a tutorial or anything that would effectively allow me to do this. For example using YouCam I can only get a mjpeg output file type, which neither Sony Vegas nor Adobe Premiere can import, and no other webcam software provides any real usability (to my knowledge, if you have any, do let me know).

    Ideally I would like to press a hot to activate both my webcam and my in-game recording at the same time, allowing me to easy go between recording mode and none recording me. However I realize that most webcam software is made for a different demographic with very basic needs so that is probably too much to ask, but here is hoping some or one of you bros has a solution! :D

    If not then please let me know how you do it, and what software you use.

    Facecam is over-rated. Unless you have some overall great facial expressions, it's not recommended. Some horror games are good, but having it all the time takes away from the game.
    Ya I agree with this as in all the time isnt really necessary, but I think its good for games such as horror games that require a lot of facial expression. Well unless youre like pewds and your facial expressions are hilarious in every game
