Rule of thumb
If your screen and camera cooperate to display an animate object, you're committing photography of animate beings. Even if temporary (i.e a few seconds).
The claim that "no saving occurs therefore it is not ḥarām" is invalid, because it is the same as someone drawing an animate object using a brush and paint then destroying the painting...temporary!
The problem is with mere existence, no matter how short the period is.
