How do I put my facecam above the gameplay?

In Clipr's Short editor, choose the Cam + game layout and drag the box over your facecam. Then set Cam position to Top in the Look tab. Cam + game comes with the Starter and Creator plans.

  1. Open the clip in Studio and press Make a Short. See making a Short.
  2. Choose Cam + game.
  3. On the source frame, drag the box over your cam and resize it from any corner.
  4. In the Look tab, set Cam position to Top and adjust Cam size.
  5. Use Gameplay framing to place the game part, or select Center it.

The three layouts

  • Full crop: one 9:16 crop of the clip. "The outlined part is the Short: drag it onto the action (double-click centers it)."
  • Cam + game: your facecam and the gameplay stacked, cam on top or bottom.
  • Letterbox.

Free includes Full crop. Starter and Creator include all three.
