Video Icons
Video splits into a few different shapes depending on context — a video camera for recording, a film strip or clapperboard for content type, a play-triangle-in-a-frame for a player thumbnail. This page collects video icon variants across Pathwork's libraries, so you can pick the version that matches whether you're representing "record this" or "this is a video file."

Frequently Asked Questions
A video camera icon typically implies the action of recording (like starting a video call or capturing footage), while a film strip or clapperboard icon more often represents video as a content type or category (like labeling a file type or a media library section). Pick based on whether you're representing an action or a content category.
Both are common, but a play icon overlaid on a thumbnail is the more standard convention for indicating 'this is a playable video', while a standalone video camera or film icon is more often used in contexts without a thumbnail, like a file type badge or a menu item labeled 'Videos'.
A video camera icon (sometimes with a plus or arrow overlay to imply 'start') is the standard convention for initiating a video call, distinct from a plain video icon used to represent video content generally. Check whether your chosen library offers a dedicated 'video-call' or 'video-plus' variant for this specific action.
Combining both is common — a video camera icon indicates the general action, while a red filled circle (often used as a separate 'record' icon) specifically signals active recording, similar to how physical camcorders and recording apps traditionally show a red dot during capture.
Each icon keeps the license from its source library attached to it, and terms can differ depending on which library a specific icon comes from. Check the license shown on the individual icon's page before using it commercially.
Yes, this is a common pattern for video conferencing UIs — swapping to a video-camera-with-slash icon to indicate the camera is currently off or muted, similar to how a microphone icon toggles between active and muted states.
