About Prequel
What the tool does and who it's for
Prequel is a macOS screen recorder designed to turn raw screen captures into cinematic, finished videos directly on Apple Silicon Macs. By tracking clicks and keystrokes in real time, Prequel automatically generates zoom-in sequences with perspective tilt, speed controls, and progressive focus blur. It records the screen, webcam, microphone, and system audio onto separate tracks without burning in overlays, allowing users to frame webcam feeds into shapes like circles or squircles after recording. Videos are enhanced with customized background padding, custom shadow/border styling, timeline scrubbing, and cursor cleanup. Built to operate locally via Mac's native media engine, Prequel exports files at up to 4K resolution at 120 fps without requiring cloud uploads.
