Demo Video Recorder

Create demo videos in one take, reduce editing time.

OneShot is a screen recording tool for quickly creating demo videos. It's part of Requestland, but can also be used on its own. Since it runs in the browser, no installation is needed.

Elements that are usually added during editing — such as on-screen demos, camera feed, emoji cursor, logos, and highlight rings — can be overlaid during recording. You can record both your face and your actions on Requestland or any other window.

After making many videos and realizing how time-consuming it was, we built this tool to overlay everything during recording. The only editing left is trimming and adding text. Please create and share your own demo videos of Requestland — we look forward to seeing them!

How to use screen record on Android (android.com)

Record the screen on your iPhone, iPad (apple.com)

Recording on Computers

Press the large red record button or the Enter key to start recording. The browser will open a dialog requesting permission to record—please allow it.

A 3-second countdown will begin. Get ready and smile.

To stop recording, click the stop_circle button in the top-left corner. The recording will be saved as a file. The codec is H.264/mp4 on Safari and VP8/webm on others.

If you started recording with the Enter key, the stop_circle button will not appear. Press the Enter key again to stop recording.

The recording size is determined by the screen size and pixel ratio. For example, recording an 800 × 800 pixel area on a 2x density screen will result in a 1600 × 1600 video. The actual size may vary depending on OS and device.

(On macOS, a bug may cause the recording size to become excessively large.)

The browser displays "Sharing" at the top of the screen. When recording at standard resolutions such as 1920 x 1080 (HD) or 3840 x 2160 (4K), adjust the screen size in advance to accommodate these dimensions. Changing the screen size will show the number of pixels on the screen for your reference.

If you want to zoom in on a specific area during recording, use pinch gestures on the screen.

You can control recording with the keyboard. These shortcuts also work on smartphones with a connected keyboard.

Selfie Overlay

When the selfie overlay is enabled, your camera feed appears inside a heart, square, or circular frame. You can drag the overlay to change its position. Drag the edges to resize vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. On smartphones, you can also resize it with a pinch gesture.

Tapping the overlay will display the settings panel below. Tap the overlay or clear to close the panel.

Frame
When in full-screen mode, a frame is displayed around the camera image. You can use either built-in frames or your own image by specifying a URL. Use formats like PNG or SVG that support transparent areas for the face. It doesn’t have to be a literal frame—it can also be used to overlay text or other visuals on screen.

Wearing heavy makeup for video shoots can look unnatural to viewers. Try the “Bright and Soft Filter” auto_fix_normal. It doesn’t support all skin tones equally, so please adjust the color balance to suit your complexion. Wishing you success with your video! Here’s a quote from Marilyn Monroe: “A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear.”
