Overview
CRT Cam adds authentic retro CRT-television text, marquees, and logos on top of your live camera feed. It runs entirely in your browser, nothing is uploaded and your camera never leaves your device.
It is free and needs no account, which makes it a fast entry point for creators who want a nostalgic broadcast look for reels, streams, and title cards before stepping into the fuller FXI Studio toolset.
What you can do
- Multiple text layers
- Add independent text layers, each with its own font, size, color, position, alignment, and marquee, one line can scroll while another holds.
- Authentic CRT look
- Scanlines, phosphor glow, chromatic aberration, bloom, and grain recreate a real CRT-TV signal rather than a flat filter.
- Logo & image overlay
- Drop in a logo in full color, or key out a light background to composite line-art cleanly over the feed.
- Record or capture
- Export a WebM clip or grab a PNG still directly from the browser.
- Private by design
- All processing is on-device, the camera stream is never uploaded.
How to use CRT Cam
- 1Enable your camera. Open /crt-cam and allow camera access. The stream stays local and is never uploaded.
- 2Add text and a logo. Type one or more text layers, pick a font, set alignment and position, enable a marquee, or drop in a logo.
- 3Record or grab a still. Export a WebM clip or a PNG still, free, with no sign-up.
Questions
- Is CRT Cam really free with no sign-up?
- Yes. CRT Cam runs entirely in your browser, add text, logos, and the retro CRT effect over your live camera, then download a clip or still. No account is required and nothing is uploaded.
- Can I add more than one line of text?
- Yes. Add multiple independent text layers, each with its own font, size, color, position, alignment, and marquee, so one line can scroll while another stays static.
- What can I do next inside FXI Studio?
- With a free account you can generate a full moving atmosphere or scene, direct a short film with Bezaleel, and save your work to a library.
