Recording interviews

I record interviews locally. I cut my mic and cam. I ask my interviewees to wait for 3 seconds before answering the question. Still I miss the images of the first words of the interviewees. Is there a way to record only the cam of the interviewee? Or how do I get all the images of everything they say.

    I'd recommend pinning their video on your end, so that their video is always visible on the screen and thus captured as such in the local recording. More info about pinning video can be found here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362743-Pinning-participants-videos

    Hi @anouk 

     

    Instead of waiting for Zoom to switch Active Speaker to the your interviewee when they start talking, you try pinning (or spotlighting) them and then ask them to start speaking.

     

    A pin or spotlight should be reflected in your local recording.
