Camtasia Studio 7 and Camtasia for Mac are software applications for creating video tutorials and presentations (screen video capture), published by TechSmith.
The exact screen area to be captured can be specified, and audio may be
recorded simultaneously from any standard input source.
Recording
The presenter carries out all steps of the demonstration in sequence
and is able to jump from one application to another without interrupting
the recording process. The presenter is able to stop recording with a hotkey
combination at any time, at which point the software renders the input
that has been captured, and applies user-defined settings, such as when
and how to display the cursor.
Newer versions of Camtasia offer the option to draw a circle around the
cursor whenever the mouse is clicked, to better illustrate the actions
of the presenter.
Post-production
After the presentation has been captured, the presenter is able to
revise it by cutting and/or pasting different parts, as needed. In
addition, the presenter is also able to overlay their voice, as well as
sound effects or music onto the presentation. Camtasia allows audio
recording while screen-capturing is in progress, so the presenter can
narrate the demonstration as it is carried out. Most presenters,
however, prefer to wait until they have finished the screen-capture, and
then record the narration from a script as the application is playing
back the recorded capture.
Deployment
The program allows files to be stored in its own proprietary format,
which is only readable by Camtasia itself; this format allows for fairly
small file sizes, even for longer presentations. Camtasia also allows
the generated video stream to be exported to common video formats which
can be read by most computers, even if the Camtasia software is not
installed, such as MPEG-2 or MPEG-4.
