I’m in a motion graphics college course and I would like to use clips from some movies in the background of my animation project.

The professor is fine with this and has encouraged us to use whatever video we want in the background, saying “for the purposes of this class, copyright laws don’t exist.”

Since this is for educational, non-commercial purposes, I feel ethically in the clear but I just found out streaming services can detect screen recording.

The Criterion Channel streaming service (which I pay for) is what I’m trying to record. I’m using my laptop, entering full screen and as soon as I start to screen record, the image goes black.

Yes, I could torrent movies and get clips that way but just going full screen and recording a shot from a streaming movie would be so much quicker.

I figured this might be the best place to ask.

TL;DR Is there any way to screen record from a streaming service without being detected? I don’t care about the audio.
