| Description |
Camtasia Studio is a screen video capture program for Microsoft Windows.
It is published by TechSmith. The user defines the area of the screen or
the window that is to be captured before recording begins; it is also
possible to capture the entire screen area.
Recording
The presenter carries out all steps of the demonstration in sequence and
is able to jump from one application to another without interrupting the
recording process. The presenter is able to stop recording with a hotkey
combination at any time, at which point the software renders the input
that has been captured, and applies user-defined settings, such as when
and how to display the cursor. Newer versions of Camtasia offer the
option to draw a circle around the cursor whenever the mouse is clicked,
to better illustrate the actions of the presenter.
Post-production
After the presentation has been captured, the presenter is able to revise
it by cutting and/or pasting different parts, as needed. In addition, the
presenter is also able to overlay their voice, as well as sound effects
or music onto the presentation. Camtasia allows audio recording while
screen-capturing is in progress, so the presenter can narrate the
demonstration as it is carried out. Most presenters, however, prefer to
wait until they have finished the screen-capture, and then record the
narration from a script as the application is playing back the recorded
capture.
Deployment
The program allows files to be stored in its own proprietary format,
which is only readable by Camtasia itself; this format allows for fairly
small file sizes, even for longer presentations. Camtasia also allows the
generated video stream to be exported to common video formats which can
be read by most computers, even if the Camtasia software is not installed,
such as MPEG-2 or MPEG-4.
PCWORLD SAYS:
"A great presentation shouldn't call for innumerable encores. Camtasia
Studio lets you publish your PowerPoint presentations as Web presentations.
It can record everything, even animations and voice narration. Camtasia
Studio can record your presentation in Flash, streaming media, and other
popular multimedia formats. Then you can post your presentation on your
Web site or burn it to CD--and watch your adoring public settle down and
stop pestering you to give the same presentation again."
