Promo2day Review Camtasia 2019: The Best Screen Recorder and Video Editor
#1
[Image: jwMFJGw.png]

It is a fact that video is more engaging and more effective than plain text. Video is the best form of communication and lets you conduct all the information you want with more attention from audience. Using video will provide an engaging experience that text can never achieve, whether for internal or external audiences. In workplace communications, using more visual content could gain businesses an average of $1,200 in productivity per employee per year.

For external audiences, social media platforms rely on video content to grab attention and keep it. People increasingly turn to platforms like YouTube for all kinds of video content from entertainment to learning. Video is the future.

Camtasia 2019 makes it simple to record and create professional-looking videos on Windows and Mac without being an expert. Camtasia allows you to easily capture everything on your screen and turn it into a polished video to train, educate, and engage your audiences even if you’ve never created video before. Camtasia is the best all-in-one screen recorder and video editor for businesses, educators, and entrepreneurs to create video tutorials and other instructional videos.

The program will let you have a good experience with video production. Record your screen, import PowerPoint presentations, or add video footage you already have. Then edit, add effects, and share out your videos with anyone. With so many features and effects, you’ll be creating professional-quality videos in no time. And, for the first time ever, it’s easier than ever to ensure your audio sounds as good as your video looks.

Use of Camtasia:

Create professional-looking videos from scratch or with things that you already have, including PowerPoint presentations, webinar recordings, video clips and images, and the knowledge that you or others already have about a product or process. Then, add professional-quality video effects, callouts, cursor effects and more. You can share knowledge in the workplace, provide customer or employee training, create informational videos, or simply share your expertise with the world

Highlights:

Start Fast:
Camtasia is quick to learn. You don’t need a big budget or fancy video editing skills. Simply record your screen and add a few effects.

Feel Confident:
Whether you have experience or this is your first time making a video, you will get everything you need to make a high-quality video.

Engage Viewers:
Create content your viewers actually watch. A video will give you more interaction and help your audience to learn more than with text alone.

The only video editor I had used. It is easy to use once you get familiar with it. I heard Mirillis is going to offer video editing soom sometime this year so finger cross hopefully it can be a good alternative to this expensive software Cool

Still recommend it even for that price.
