Wow, talk about a masterclass, thanks so much!

[@yakovdavid8874]

Excellent

[@auntskipvideocreations2741]

could you please provide the link to the assets mentioned & demonstrated in this video...thanks much 🙏

[@techsmith]

I don't have direct links, but the only assets he showed that weren't something he recorded off of his desktop were from library.techsmith.com. And now, most of those come standard in Camtasia 2023's dynamic backgrounds kit in the Library (in the software).

To use Camtasia as a designer you’re going to have to up you game a bit. For one on Windows you don’t even allow Camtasia to use Windows font short cuts (every other major program does from Adobe products, MS Office and …wait for it….yes even Snagit.). Without the ability to use font shortcuts one cannot use a font manager like a real designer. This is just one area that needs to be addressed…won’t even get into audio editing capabilities to allow one to “design” the soundscape of a video/presentation.

You confused me at around the 26 minute mark about 100% scaling. What is it. Option Z or option zero (0)? I think there’s a difference, right. Thank you.
Update…ok almost done with video and you showed it’s 0. But as an instructor if u mean 0, maybe don’t say Z as they r not the same character. Not meaning to lecture 👍👍👍

Hi guys. Love the effort. ALL of these topics have already been covered many, many times. Might you stop showing us its features and show us some bad-ass uses? The most innovative techniques I've seen with Camtasia have come from other channels. Show us something simpler to do with Camtasia than DaVince. Or something that rocks that no one has seen before that gives other editors a run for their money. Make some videos for us that already OWN Camtasia, instead of these 'feature rundowns' for people that might be considering it. Show us something so compelling, the audience wants to know, "What editor did that?" The rest will be history. Thanks. Just my 2 cents.

[@techsmith]

Appreciate that feedback, thanks for challenging us. Dorian!
