Recording in zoom without showing other faces in video

Hello everybody, 

i want to record a video in zoom during the meeting with other people. So i will be the host of the video. I would like to have on the video only my face and not showing the faces of the others. The voices of the others can be heard in the video. If i pin my screen, in the recording i can still see other faces… and this i don’t want. Can somebody help me? Thank you very much in advance :))))

Best regards, 

Oksana

Spotlighting is going to be your best friend:

Spotlighting yourself should record to active speaker layout (audio from others will still be recorded, but your video will stay prominent), unlike pinning, which is just a tool to be used for your local layout.
