Prepare a scene before recording
- Choose one location and a short action rather than an entire mission.
- Set character appearance, vehicle, weapon, and emotes before the take.
- Move unrelated interface elements out of the visual focus when the mode allows it.
- Assign start positions and cues if a Crew is involved.
- Record several short takes instead of one long sequence.
Simple shot plan
| Shot | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Establishing shot | Shows the district, road, building, or event location. |
| Medium action shot | Keeps the character or vehicle readable during movement. |
| Close detail | Highlights customization, an emote, weapon, or vehicle detail. |
| Reaction or Crew shot | Connects the action to social interaction. |
| Exit shot | Ends with a destination, getaway, skyline, or clear pause. |
Performance and privacy checks
- Use a stable graphics preset before recording.
- Close unnecessary background apps if recording causes heat or stutter.
- Avoid displaying account identifiers, private chat, or other players without permission.
- Check whether game audio, microphone audio, and notifications are captured.
- Confirm the saved file and available storage before deleting a take.
