We use Camtasia to make the videos that we post on our websites.

Camtasia is a very complete and powerful package for recording the screen or a part of the screen of your computer.

To create a video, you start Camtasia recorder and then go through the steps to demonstrate the procedure that you are recording.  You narrate the procedure at the same time.

Camtasia will record the video and audio and allow you to edit it to make a final professional looking video.

This is a very powerful piece of software. 

You can download Camtasia Studio and try it free for 30 days.  I have done this.  I can tell you from experience you can learn how to use it and make a lot of videos in 30 days.

We went ahead and purchased Camtasia after the trial period.  We use it to make the videos that you have seen on the Boomer Video eZine.

The price of Camtasia Studio is $299.00 for a single copy.

Education on how to use Camtasia

Chris Austin is a Camtasia expert who has developed a really top notch training class on how to use Camtasia.

I needed to reduce my learning curve with Camtasia.  I decided to purchase Mastering Camtasia by Chris Austin.

His instructional package was very effective and very easy to use.

I viewed all of the lessons one time through.  Then as I started a particular step in the production process, I loaded up the video for that step and watched it just before I launched Camtasia.  Mastering Camtasia cut my learning time by 75%!
