Creating Screen Capture Videos
Overview
Video instruction has emerged as one of the most popular digital products today. Unlike a few years ago, when ebooks were the trend, videos now dominate the market. While ebooks still sell, videos command higher prices, especially with effective marketing.
Exploring Video Instruction
Video instruction encompasses a wide range of topics. For instance, you could create a video demonstrating how to cook a steak dinner. All you need is a video camera and some conversion software, which comes built-in with Windows Vista and Mac.
However, a growing trend is videos that teach computer-based skills. These might include setting up a website or using specific software.
Creating Screen Capture Videos
Screen capture software records your computer screen activities and, if needed, your voice. You can also annotate your video with text and animations for emphasis.
To start creating screen capture videos, you'll need the right software. Although TechSmith's Camtasia is the industry leader, some prefer more affordable options like AllCapture.
5-Step Guide to Video Creation
1. Plan: Decide on your video’s content. Make detailed notes to ensure clarity.
2. Practice: Familiarize yourself with the software and rehearse as if explaining to someone beside you.
3. Dry Runs: Test several recordings with your microphone. Adjust window sizes and sound levels to ensure clarity.
4. Review: Watch your recordings to see what your audience will experience. Initial attempts might require refinement. Practice helps smooth out hesitations.
5. Format: Once satisfied with your video, convert it into a user-friendly format. Options include Windows Media Player, RealPlayer, and the highly popular Flash. Both Camtasia and AllCapture offer these formats.
