The main difference I feel with Captivate is that it is less reliant on making the screencast as a pure video file. This is very powerful software from Adobe that allows you to not only capture what is on the screen, but also edit the capture afterwards, add further audio, more screen capture and add captions. One tool I do use for Windows is Captivate.

One tool that I know a lot of people use for Windows is CamStudio.ĬamStudio is able to record all screen and audio activity on your computer and create industry-standard AVI video files and using its built-in SWF Producer can turn those AVIs into lean, mean, bandwidth-friendly Streaming Flash videos (SWFs)ĬamStudio can also add high-quality, anti-aliased (no jagged edges) screen captions to your recordings in seconds and with the unique Video Annotation feature you can even personalise your videos by including a webcam movie of yourself “picture-in-picture” over your desktop. IMovie on the Mac, which is usually used for video editing can be used to edit screencasts from recordings made from Screenr or Quicktime (or any of the other tools too). It also allows you to capture part of the screen, whereas Quicktime captures the whole screen. However as with Screenr you need to ensure you get it in one take, or stitch smaller videos together.įor a little more flexibility than the whole screen you get with Quicktime, another application IShowU gives you a few capture options, such as ½ or ¼ size. In Snow Leopard and Lion it is now possible to record screencasts using the built in Quicktime tool. I also recorded a podcast with Gavin and Zak from JISC Digital Media in which we discussed what is screencasting, what can you do with screencasting, what tools are there for screencasting, top tips on making screencasts and delivery of your screencasts. I embedded their 6 Quick Wins presentation into the blog a few weeks back. JISC Digital Media have a lot of resources on screencasting including tips and advice.

However it is limited to five minutes, you need to ensure you get a perfect “take” as you can’t edit the resulting screencast and one further downside is that it is public, though it is possible to “quickly” download the Screenr recording as an MP4 file and then then delete the online screencast! Screenr is a very clever free service that I use a lot for demos and training.

Last year I posted a video on how to use the free online service Screenr. This is a bit of an update to that post and added ideas on screencasting for Windows. Three years ago I went through some of the possible applications that you can use on the Mac for screencasting. I have written and spoken before on this blog about screencasting.
