![]() I record the content and have somebody else do the editing and packaging of the videos. More content and I'm starting to rely on some outside editors to help me edit and produce my videos. And I created all of the videos myself, but we have started to create Our videos here at Datto tech using ScreenFlow because I'm a Mac user. In both windows and the Mac environment now for the past eight years or so, we have created all And there's Camtasia from TechSmith, which is a cross-platform tool working They are ScreenFlow, which is a Mac only tool. Now, historically there are two kinds of superstars in the screen casting domain. ![]() Steve Dotto here, how the heck you doing this fine day? And today we're going to explore the reasons that we have shifted here at Datto tech to creating our videos using Camtasia. And that is what we're going to explore today on Donald Trump, Now you might wonder why in the world would I switch to Camtasia when I've had so much success with ScreenFlow? But about four months ago, I began to shift my entire process over to Camtasia. I used a tool called ScreenFlow and it was a great tool for me to use. That’s totally awesome.For the last seven or eight years, I have used one tool for creating almost all the videos here on my YouTube channel for our webinars, for our tutorials. From what I read in the documentation of the app, it seems like Screenflow captures everything on screen as a standalone channel, and that explains features like mouse pointer and modifier keys. You can set the X,Y and Z rotation, adjust Saturation, Brightness and Contrast, show / hide / zoom the mouse pointer, show which keys and modifier keys were pressed, enter callout action, text boxes and even choose the right fonts and font sizes for them. Let’s just focus on what you can actually achieve with a few clicks in the sidebar. As I mentioned before I’m not really that skilled into this kind of stuff, so I won’t enter the technical details behind Screenflow. There are 6 tabs you can choose from: Video properties, Audio properties, Screen Recording properties, Callout Action, Text properties and Media. I’m not a video recording pro, but I definitely found every feature inside it usable and easy to set up. Last, there’s the sidebar, which is the heart of Screenflow. Last thing I’d like to mention about the video preview is that Screenflow shows “coordinates” both vertically and horizontally when you drag anything inside it: it could be the video itself or a text box, coordinates really come in handy if you wanna keep everything aligned the right way. ![]() Also, you can crop the whole canvas with the crop button right above the timeline: enter the size you want to crop, choose if you want to snap to the front window and hit Apply. You can also manually resize the video with the corner indicators. The window is draggable, if you want to exclude some parts like the menubar. Useful to get a very detailed of what you’ve been recording. Let’s start from the video itself: the preview is zoomable, and just like in other apps like, say, Photoshop you can zoom in and out, zoom to 100% and zoom to fit. ![]() Screenflow it’s organized into three main “zones”: the video itself takes most part of the window, properties are listed in the right sidebar and, last, there’s what I call “ video timeline” in the bottom part. The interface theme is dark and matte, the buttons are crisp and, overall, it’s very user friendly. Once you’ve recorded something Screenflow will automatically open the editing window which is possibly one of the best user interface designs currently available on Mac OS X. ![]()
