To record ProRes video on an iPad Pro without a watermark, you need to use a third-party app, as the native Camera app does not support ProRes recording. This applies to models like the M2 iPad Pro, which supports ProRes but only through third-party apps like FiLMiC Pro[1][2][4].
Here's how you can achieve watermark-free ProRes recording:
1. Install a Third-Party App: Download and install an app that supports ProRes recording, such as FiLMiC Pro. This app allows you to choose between different ProRes codecs like ProRes 709 and ProRes 2020[2].
2. Configure the App: Once installed, open the app and navigate to its settings. Look for the option to select the video codec and choose ProRes. You might need to adjust other settings like resolution and frame rate according to your needs.
3. Record Your Video: Start recording your video using the app. Ensure that you have enough storage space, as ProRes files are typically larger than standard video files. For 4K ProRes recording, you need an iPad Pro with at least 256GB of storage[2].
4. Avoid Watermarks: Most professional video recording apps like FiLMiC Pro do not add watermarks to your videos. However, if you're using a free version or a trial, check the app's documentation to confirm whether watermarks are added.
5. Post-Production: After recording, you can edit your ProRes videos using apps like Final Cut Pro or LumaFusion on the iPad Pro. These apps support ProRes editing, allowing you to refine your footage without watermarks[8].
In summary, using a third-party app like FiLMiC Pro on your iPad Pro allows you to record ProRes video without a watermark, as long as the app itself does not add one. Always check the app's settings and documentation to ensure watermark-free recording.
