I used to Camtasia studio version 6.0. I have recently published how to use Camtasia studio to record computer screen. But Techsmith released the new version Camtasia, 7.0.

Watch the tutorial on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKLWBT9m4G8 Capturing your computer screen is easy and it can be done in two clicks. F9 to start and F10 Finish. That’s all. First open Camtasia, select ‘Record the screen’ option then you can select ‘Full screen’ or ‘Custom’ part of the screen. Click on Audio to turn on audio recording. To start screen record, press "Rec" red button or click ‘Record’ on ‘Capture’ tab or press short cut key F9. You can enable highlight cursor and clicks in "effects" tab. I explain this process in coming steps. So just now know how to start, stop recording and save the file. After finish the recording, use F10. Then save the file with a name. It will be saved as Camtasia project format file. You can use this file to edit and produce video on Camtasia. I will show the edit and produce processes in coming steps. Remember there are pre-settings needed before you capture the screen. You can do all settings, after captured the screen and before produce the video. For example, you no need to worry about video format, adding watermark, record as HD etc before you record screen. Just capture the screen and then you can produce the video in your preferred format, as HD, with watermark etc. ☺ Just you are two clicks away to capture your screen. www.fourblogger.com Page 6 2.

Watch the tutorial on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5IFXxBpags When you finished record the screen on Camtasia, it asks to give a file name to save the screencast. It saves the screencast as Camtasia project format file. It doesn’t save the file in normal formats like wmv, mp4, mov etc. We have to produce this Camtasia project format file into normal video formats so that we can use it anywhere in online. Camtasia has “Produce video as” option to do this. When you use this option, you can 1. Select the preferred dimension of the output video 2. Select the preferred video format of the output video 3. Add the watermark on video at any place & at any size. Open Camtasia software. Click on Import media. Once you imported the video, drag and drop the video in timeline. www.fourblogger.com Page 7 Then click on produce video and select the dimension ( I prefer to select “custom production settings”, so that I can select my preferred HD (High definition) dimension in next steps).
