How do I make sure that students are not seen on the Video playback when recording my live lesson?

Our district has stated that students should not be seen on the video recordings of live lessons. Is there any way to make sure this happens while still allowing students to share their webcams during the lesson?

HI @jboyer21 this sounds tricky. The recording itself will not remove students video from the recording. However you could use some editing software to go through and edit out the students faces. This does sound time consuming though. Perhaps this is a conversation that needs to be had at district level, are you able to suggest it?

Also, what are the recordings for? If it's just for the class then perhaps that may still be allowed?

Might pay to check to see if that's the case.

best of luck.
