Be it crucial notes or interactive doodles, your audience will see your on-screen markings as if they were overlaid on your camera feed, creating an immersive and engaging presentation experience." - Alec / Take One Tech "One of my channel members suggested this app called Video Pencil which I had never heard of so I decided to try it live on stream and see what it could do. After the stream I was so excited that I had to come and make this video" - Aaron Parecki "Video Pencil has fundamentally changed the way I teach, lead, present and interact with my audience in Zoom. Being able to see my program output in Video Pencil on my iPad and then telestrate right on the screen is HUGE! Kudos to Michael for developing an indispensable tool to enhance my workflow." - David Paskin (Torah Tech Guy) “I have one word for the Video Pencil app: brilliant! I used Video Pencil with Ecamm and I loved what I could do. So easy to use. I could actually see where I was drawing on the screen. I did a session for grades 1 and 2 students about how shapes can be the building blocks for faces and they were over the moon with the demonstration. My favourite moment was hearing the question “how did you do that?” Thanks, Video Pencil for helping me level up my virtual presentations." - Marty Chan (Author, Playwright) See Developer Website for more testimonials.
