The app
provides you with the tools to record your computer screen and then edit those
recordings into professional videos. Camtasia Studio also then allows you to
share them directly from within the app to YouTube, Google Drive and
Screencast.
Camtasia
Studio provides a nice feature set inside a fluid interface, which you will
find easy to navigate. The app allows you to record either the screen or a
PowerPoint presentation. Once recorded, you can make use of the vast tool set
to finalise your video and make it complete. Tools include: multiple transition
options, voice narration, zoom and pan effects, cursor effects, captions and
more.
Key
features:
- Library:
Save editing time and achieve consistency by storing callouts, title slides, or
an entire intro sequence for later reuse.
- YouTube
upload: Produce and upload HD-quality videos to YouTube without leaving the
app.
- Copy and
paste: Reuse transitions, zooms and other effects by copying and
pasting into different spots on the timeline or add it to the library.
- Keystroke
callouts: Make keystrokes visible as Camtasia Studio takes note of any
keyboard short-cuts used during recording and shows the keys as a graphic
overlay.
- Enhanced
callouts: New callout styles provide support for image transparency.
- Sketch
motion callouts: Bring attention to the important components of your videos
with animated shapes.
Overall,
Camtasia Studio is a fully comprehensive app for creating good looking,
professional videos using screen capture. The user interface is simple to grasp
and the feature set is more than average. Camtasia Studio is free for 30 days,
but the full purchase price is $299.
