If you want to add overlays to your recorded video, check out this Ray Wenderlich tutorial:

If you also want the overlay to appear while recording a video, you need to add the overlay as a subtitle to the UIImagePickerController cameraOverlayView . Take a look at this tutorial to see more: http://www.musicalgeometry.com/?p=821
