The Visual Lounge (the TechSmith Blog) have a great series of Camtasia demos: “30 Videos In 30 Days” – post #14 #18 of 30 as I write. Each one features tips & techniques for using Camtasia. Some are “blog’vertorial” as preview features in Camtasia 4 which is due for release soon.
I’ve used Camtasia since version 2 but more as a tool for documentation than demonstration. I got it to record use of a custom ADT add-on I commissioned. It was handy to send demos of how the code was working when collaborating with the developer. A picture may be worth a thousand words but those short videos saved a thousand emails. It’s also a nice way to report tech problems & I’ve had support technicians comment how much they help with diagnosing faults.
Recently I’ve started to record presentations & find that a really nice use. It was fortunate this coincided with the “30 Videos…” series as they have been a great help!
