how are software training/demo videos created?
I'm not exactly sure which section to put this in, or even how to describe it, but basically, I want to know how software training videos made - you know, the ones in which you can see all the desktop activity: the cursor is moving around the screen, applications are opening and closing, rendering is taking place, and it's all been captured and displayed as a quicktime/flash/wmv video.
I'm on the Mac platform, running FCP. If anyone can tell me how to capture desktop activity as video, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks ;-) |

Camtasia is something I've worked with before. Pretty good program. There are lots of others. Oops sorry, you need something for Apple computers for CAPTURING? http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ Will allow you to capture on a Mac. Camtasia is a better program, but won't run on a Mac. (Though it's video will work on FCP) |

Thanks Richard,
You put me on the right track, I didn't realise there is plenty of affordable software available. I found this one for the mac too, which also looks useful: http://www.shinywhitebox.com/home/home.html Cheers, Josh |
