# How to use Full Screen blur mode?

## How to and when you would use the full screen blur mode in your video redaction.

This is a different way of redacting to the other two modes. We suggest using the full screen blur mode when you’re in a sensitive area, where you want the whole general area to be redacted. This can be useful if you need to proof that someone was in the area, are interested in what is happening in a small section of the area or you need to blur a particular section of video. To allow you to have the flexibility to use the full-screen blur there are two different ways to use this mode: firstly, with Auto-tracking and secondly dynamic adjustment.

*Full Screen with Auto-tracking:*

The suggested use of this mode is for when you want to track someone who is in a sensitive area. 

1. On the right-hand side panel at the bottom click the tick box labelled ‘Full Screen’ ![righthand pannel - full screen blur](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/righthand%20pannel%20-%20full%20screen%20blur.png?width=265&name=righthand%20pannel%20-%20full%20screen%20blur.png)
2. At the top of the right-hand side panel select ‘circle’  
3. On the right-hand side click ‘Auto-Tracking’   
   ![righthand pannel - auto tracking](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/righthand%20pannel%20-%20auto%20tracking.png?width=265&name=righthand%20pannel%20-%20auto%20tracking.png)
4. Then click ‘New’ again on the right-hand side ![2nd work screen - tracks](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/2nd%20work%20screen%20-%20tracks.png?width=688&name=2nd%20work%20screen%20-%20tracks.png)
5. Go to the main section of the screen where the video is 
6. Click on the person's head you wish to show, this will now track this person 
7. On the right-hand side panel click ‘Save’  
   ![righthand pannel - SAVE](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/righthand%20pannel%20-%20SAVE.png?width=265&name=righthand%20pannel%20-%20SAVE.png)
8. Click ‘Next, this will allow you to change the degree of blur on the target ![2nd work screen - next](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/2nd%20work%20screen%20-%20next.png?width=688&name=2nd%20work%20screen%20-%20next.png)
9. Click ‘Export’ once you have completed all your required redactions to save within your secure environment 

*Full Screen with a Rectangle:*

Using a rectangle to keep a selected area clear so you can see what is happening within a small section of the video. 

1. On the right-hand side panel at the bottom click the tick box labelled ‘Full Screen’![righthand pannel - full screen blur](https://knowledgebase.facit.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/righthand%20pannel%20-%20full%20screen%20blur.png?width=265&name=righthand%20pannel%20-%20full%20screen%20blur.png)
2. Select Rectangle at the top of the right hand panel
3. Click 'New' on the panel
