Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering video with teleprompter script overlays are described. A video rendering system provides a user interface for displaying a script for use during the rendering of the video (e.g., while the user records and/or streams the video). The script is arranged such that it at least partially overlays the video feed and is positioned within the display of the user interface to produce a line of sight of a user corresponding to first region of a field of view of the video capture device. When a user's line of sight is fixed upon the script overlay (i.e., when the user is reading the script) and aligned with the first region of the field of view of the video capture device, a viewer of the video rendering is given a visual perception that the user is looking directly at the viewer (e.g., making eye contact).
