Getting started with scene packs

Scene Packs are Detail templates to kickstart your video projects. They can be found when starting a new project or on the website. They will download and open automatically.

Selecting your audio source

You can use any audio interface or microphone with Detail. Just make sure it's connected to your Mac and then click the little dropdown at the bottom right of the app window to select the audio input source you want to use.

Setting up a project

You start with creating and setting up your scenes. Per scene, you determine what it should show by hovering over the canvas and selecting what you want to add. A camera, screen share, image, or text. Or all of these, you decide.

Mounting your camera and iPhone

You can mount your phone using various stands and monitor clips. We prefer microphone stands with a phone mount as it is super customizable.

How to connect your iPhone

To connect your iPhone (or iPad) camera, you'll need to install Detail for iOS. To get the best image quality and stability, connect your iPhone or iPad to your Mac via USB. When the app is connected to your Mac the camera will be visible in the camera drawer.

Combo Scenes allow you to show multiple scenes in one frame. Perfect for podcasts, reviews and presentations. You can choose from multiple layouts and backgrounds.

Text and image overlays

Add text and images to your video by adding overlays to your scenes. Hover over the canvas, select text or image, and you are good to go. Once added there are many settings to tweak the appearance.
