How to Move the Camera Position in the PowerPoint Recording

Use this interactive demo to learn how to adjust the camera position during a PowerPoint recording.

‍

It is very easy to move the camera position in the PowerPoint recording. Here’s a short guide on how to do it in simple steps:

  1. Inside the slide canvas of your PowerPoint presentation, head over to the top menu bar and click 'Record'.
  2. Following that, click the 'Cameo' option in the ribbon.
  3. Tap and hold the cameo in the canvas, then drag it to your desired position.
  4. Finally, the camera position in your PowerPoint presentation will move to your desired position.

📌 Why this matters

Moving your camera position lets you create more dynamic presentations by placing yourself strategically within each slide's content. You can position your video next to key points for emphasis, move away from important graphics to avoid blocking them, or create visual flow that guides viewers' attention. This flexibility transforms standard screen recordings into engaging experiences where your presence enhances rather than competes with your content, making complex presentations feel more like personalized conversations.
