How to make a video capture and save your macOS screen ?

It can be practical to record on video what you do on your computer. So here is how to make a video screenshot on macOS with Quicktime.

You want to show remotely how to carry out a manipulation on your Mac ? Make a screenshot to integrate it into a bigger project ? Here’s how to save your screen on MacOS with Quick Time.

Make a video capture with Quicktime ?

First thing, launch Quick (Use the search field at the top right to locate it)

• Once the application is opened, click on the file menu then on New screen recording.

• A window opens, then click on the arrow -shaped icon to the right of the red button Registration.
• In the menu that appears, choose Internal microphone To add sound to video.
• Finally press the red button Save.

• You can then choose between saving the entire screen or a particular area that you can define.

• To stop recording, just click on the button Stop top right of the menu bar.

Please note: if you use a later version of MacOS Sierra, the procedure is a different bit. By clicking in Quicktime on the File menu and then on new video recording, the macOS capture tool takes over. The only thing that changes is that you will have to click on save in this tool which replaces the black dialogue box of Quicktime.

Once finished, the recording appears again in Quicktime and you just have to record it on your hard drive. You can then modify it through assembly software and then share it.
