Face cam for gaming channel

[PfftGames]

Hey! I want to add facecam to my videos but I am not sure what webcam to buy or if it has more to do with the program then the product.

Right now I record with Audacity and a DVR Capture card. I line up the audio with the visual and the rest is just extra. What would change in my editing if I added a webcam video? Would I have to line up the audio with the webcam with the gaming video? Or is there a way to record the webcam video and audio in one shot? I feel like lining up all three could cause some problems

I needs the helps

Google that product, and on the official site there's a free demo, I love this program, it is simple but gets what I need done. It is also cheap to buy on amazon, but get the free trial from the official site. I use it for my gaming videos, you don't even need a webcam really, just something to record yourself.

I have a Microsoft LifeCam HD-5000, it's pretty damn good.

I guess I just do it the hard way haha. I match up the audio to the video

It works mostly for horror games for me anyway, otherwise it is a bit too gimmicky. But I see no harm in having a little facecam in the corner for some games, feels like you get to know the youtuber a bit more

I'm going to do so in my videos in order to have a connection with the audience. Sorta if I'm playing a game and they are really sitting with me, watching. If that's what they are into. Lol, I mean they can alway put a post-it note over my face. I'll never know

Use Camtasia studio and you get the whole package! No need to separate out everything

I use face cam in some of my videos also. Mainly my Rage Ops videos so people can see my rage reactions
