I wanted to stitch together two scenes in one video- what the user was seeing and how the user was moving/exploring the virtual environment and tools.

To achieve this I screen recorded video capture of the experience using built in feature in Oculus Quest 2 headset, and synced it with video of the same experience taken using a green screen backdrop.

Here is a video walkthrough how to screen record in an Oculus Quest 2 headset:

and additional ways to optimize quality of the capture footage include:

I would also recommend that you resize screen capture formatting.

It is possible to change the default 1:1 aspect ratio

In order to record user movement simultaneously I requested green screen recording time via One Button Studio’s online scheduler:

Once you have the film you put it into AE or Premiere Pro ( I chose Premiere Pro)

If some of the green background is showing up there are other ways to adapt the scene to make those pixels transparent https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/how-to/ultra-key-effect.html
