Hi this is Russell Stannard from teacher training videos.com today we're going to look at Camtasia
of 2019 and I'm going to show you some of the ways that you can really get your viewers
attention some of the tricks that you can use to really add animation to your video so that
you're much more lively and a lot more interesting let's get straight into it now I'm imagining for
this example that you're already familiar with actually doing a screen capture I'm just gonna
come to the media here now I've got two videos that I've already produced I'm going to drag
them onto the screen we can see them now on the screen of the computer and in fact we can play
them yeah you'll see a big list of lessons it's nicely organized and you'll notice for example
that I'm on the screen and then I'm actually introducing a website called talk English now
let's imagine I want to make this video a little bit more interesting a bit more lively what could
I do or one of the great things we can use is the annotations and I use this particular one
a lot so imagine that I wanted for example say what this website's addresses so I might write
www.english - website I'm introducing and as you can see now what happens is the playhead
plays and suddenly on comes that object and then it disappears now that's okay but we could make
that much more interesting if we come down and look at the behaviours and what I'm going to do
now is I'm gonna drop this behaviour sliding on to the screen and now what's going to happen if
I play the video guys this website which is great click on is that that comes onto the screen and
if I carry on first one just to show you and each one's kind of divided into three things
you can it then goes off the screen but this is what a lot of users don't realize is that if
you're working with Camtasia you can change that animation so from the moment if I come over to
the right hand side I can see that in is sliding on from the left to the right into the center and
then out is going off to the right but let's imagine for example that I want it to go back
to the left and let's imagine that during I want to change it from fading because it fades in and
out - let's say jumping or pulsating let's try pulsating so now it's going to be a completely
different animation it's nicely organized this website which is great click on ok so you can do
that and each one's kind of divided into three things you can this and then of course it goes
back to the to the left in this case so you can actually play around with the animations you're
not limited to just working with these behaviours I'm going to show you one more example I'm just
going to click on here again and I'm going to actually delete that behaviour slide in and I'm
going to try a completely different one this time we're gonna use jump and fall and I'm going to
drag that on to the object and now if we play it you'll see it's got a completely different
website which is great jump drop us down just to show you valances son of divided into three
and anything out You need to think about the best behaviour that links to the different annotations
that you've got available to you but you can see that that's a great way of getting more attention
