Re: Training videos

[Richard Schoen <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For most of my work in recording demos I use Camtasia, Snagit and Audacity because I do my recordings in 3 phases. 

This is required for the more polished marketing/sales style videos I do, so feel free to ignore if you just want to point and record both audio and video.

Here's the general sequence I use:
-Quickly record your actual screen demo sequences (with Snagit or Camtasia or anything else that records MP4) the way you want them. Don't worry about flubs, just wait a few seconds and you're your scene because you will edit flubs out in the next step.

-Once the recording is complete, go back and play through it and edit out any stuff you don't want with Snagit Editor or in Camtasia on the timeline. 

-Then script the audio portion of your demo if you want it polished. 

-Once the audio script is done, record it all in Audacity and export the entire audio track to WAV or other format. 

-Then marry the audio with the movie scenes and export as one unit. 

There are probably other free options, but Camtasia works great for my production needs.
