  recording brush strokes as .mov?

  Posted by Kevin Cates on July 30, 2020 at 8:47 pm

  Hi, I’m trying to record my brush strokes as a .mov. I seem to remember this feature in an old version of AE. I’m an editor and I’m using a Huion 20″ graphics tablet and I would like to record my live art work/drawings to use as video transitions, opens, credits, and small builds. I’ve tried using OBS with Photoshop and Sketchbook but you can not get rid of the pesky cursor being recorded. Does AE do this? If not, any suggestions on how to get it done? Thanks!

  OBS Does have a cursor remove checkbox…maybe you need to look harder or get an updated version

  Awesome! Thanks Richard! I did have to dig a little.

  In the OBS recording/streaming window, go to ‘Sources’ window > double click on your recording target source (in my case: Display capture 2). > Uncheck the ‘show cursor’ box.

  I had a feeling I was missing something simple. Fantastic!
