What it is

CamMask is virtual webcam software for Windows and macOS that adds effects to video for chats, websites, and Flash. Its feature list includes thousands of effects covering distortions, filters, backgrounds, particles, emotions, and animations. A face-changing tool analyzes a face and expression before combining another face into it. Users can replace backgrounds, draw with adjustable paintbrush, fill, eraser, and stamp tools, and add fixed or scrolling text such as dates and times. Video sources include a webcam, video gallery, image gallery, desktop, or gradient and solid colors. Snapshots and video recording are supported, with a manager for reviewing clips or sharing them to Flickr or YouTube. Picture-in-picture provides two-channel and 2x2 modes. Output can reach 720p or 1080p, with up to six preset viewports. CamMask Free costs nothing; CamMask Pro costs $34.99, paid once and removes the watermark while adding listed effects and controls.
