TakeStage records each take on the performer's iPhone/iPad in HD with the teacher guiding and annotating over the call. The teacher can start the recording on a countdown, change the framing, and leave notes at the exact moment in the take. A frozen call never ends up in the video, and each take is one high quality, unedited recording - the way schools and festival panels prefer.
