Camtasia

Camtasia review


You know those programs you get for a free trial and you get sad when the trial ends? This is one of those.

Camtasia is a very good program that allows you to record your screen for a video up to any length of time that you'd like. When you start the screen recording program, it will load a second program for screen recording.

In this window, you can pick either full screen, or custom screen, pick what dimensions the custom screen is, start the screen recording, or what audio device to use.

In the audio device tab, you can either pick one of any of the options, or you can use 2. This is good for if you are producing a let's play for a game with both game audio and microphone audio.

The software also included an editing program built into it, so you can easily record a video and edit it with the same program.

Of course, a software this good, isn't free. If you wish to buy it, it'll cost you a good $99.99.

For some, the editing system can be very frustrating, time consuming, and for some, unbearable.

Unless you have a very powerful computer, Camtasia will take a long time to load, it can be somewhat laggy, and it will crash from time to time

This software can be found here. You can find the purchase place, and you can also try out a 30 day free trial, but be warned, you will be mad/sad after the 30 days are up.

This software is very good for someone who has money to spend on a program, doesn't want to open multiple windows to edit a video, has a very good computer, and patience.

If you do not want to spend $99.99 on a program, you can easily find a lot of programs for less, or even free. They probably won't be of the same quality, but for those casual video producers, they can be just right.
