About this app
This App is tutorial on How To Record Screen? Record, Capture, Editing Imagine you need to show someone how to log in to an online account. You could write out an email. Or you could take a few screenshots.
But best of all might be sending a screen recording.
When you record your screen you can include typing the address into your browser and show all your mouse movements and clicks to let people see exactly where to go and how to get there (see the videos below).
You can even include audio when you record your screen, as narration from your computer’s built-in microphone or an external mic. You can even record your system audio (that’s the sound that comes out of your speakers).
Screen recording, also known as a screencast, is perfect or creating tutorials, product demos, how-to videos, and other instructional videos. You can even record games or record presentations, or make a YouTube video.
Short, simple recordings that won’t require much editing can be done with something like Snagit (which is what I use most of the time).
For longer or more complex recordings that may need more editing, something like Camtasia will be better. Camtasia even allows you to enhance the video by zooming in on areas of emphasis, highlighting your mouse clicks, adding text or graphic call-outs and more.
I’ll be using Snagit and Camtasia for Mac, but you can easily record your screen with the Windows versions, as well.
As a marketer, you need to record your computer screen more often than you’d think. Whether you’re teaching a new hire how to use a tool, explaining a complex project when an email just won’t do, or recording a personalized product demo, you need to know how to record your computer screen.
