features in Snagit 2020 now I've just turned off the webcam while I do this first example I
want to point out that we can now use Snagit to create mini marketing videos that we might put
on LinkedIn or on Facebook or on Twitter and it really is a great tool for this and I'm going to
show you the whole process really quickly so I'm gonna click on capture I'm on Snagit this is my
capture one I'm just gonna minimize this and for this particular example what I'm going to do is
I'm going to open up my website and now I'm just gonna image capture this website so I'm going to
click here and just mark the area that I want to include I'm gonna do that and I'm gonna just
image capture that so that's been image captured now I'm going to do one more image capture so I'm
gonna click on image capture again and this time I'm going to open up my youtube channel so I've
got my youtube channel on the screen gonna click on capture and this time I'm gonna mark this area
here so we've done basically two image captures now what I'm going to try and do is create a
video that first of all talks about the first one and suggest people sign up to my newsletter
and then suggest that they also subscribed to my youtube channel what I'm gonna do for this then
is turn it into a video and then I'm gonna share that on LinkedIn and I'm going to share that on
Twitter and on Facebook now to do that it's very very simple gonna choose by holding down my ctrl
key the two images are now I'm going to click on create video from image and now it's gonna turn on
the video recorder notice it's also picking up my voice I can choose the microphone I'm going
to use now I use my other microphone while I'm doing this and I'm just gonna simply take you
through this process so I'm going to start with this image first or no I'll start with this one
I'm gonna click on this button here notice also that I can use these tools here on the right hand
side hi this is Russell Stannah from teacher training videos calm don't forget to come over

carry on with the video don't forget as well you can also sign up to my newsletter if you want to
be updated with all the latest webinars and blog posts I write as well as the online courses and
the new videos I've created and it's done I've done that video let's play it back I'm obviously
doing this very quickly so it's not particularly professional but you'll see what I mean hi this
is Russell star from teacher training videos don't notice or don't forget to come over and subscribe
to my youtube channel if we plat for a little bit with your speedy absorbents been to time
that it show we get that animation on the screen and the same type thing again okay and now I can
literally just click on save as and I've made myself a little mini marketing video based on a
few images I mean of course these could be images perhaps from a presentation I was recently given
or from a visit I've done whatever I just want to make a quick video maybe add some animation into
it I can do it so easily now in the new version of Snagit 2020 if you're a teacher you're gonna
love this example it's one that I often show I've shown it previously it's still available in 2020
what I'm gonna do is I've just searched on Google for Images and I've made sure that the image that
I'm searching for is labeled for reuse so it's a image that I can legally use I'm gonna click
on this image here this one will do fine in fact if I click through it'll bring me through to the
website in fact might be the better to take the image just from here I'm gonna click now
and open up Snagit and I'm just gonna capture that particular image so I'm just gonna mark out that
around there and capture that again I'm doing this a bit quick and I know that wouldn't be perfect
because I've managed to capture these bits but just to demonstrate the idea now what I'm doing
is I'm gonna click up here and I'm gonna click on the steps because what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna
make a worksheet and I want my students to name these objects in English perfect for the language
it could be teaching Spanish English or Chinese or whatever so I'm going to put here our first one's
gonna be obviously screen second one is gonna be cable third one's gonna be keyboard fourth one's
gonna be that Mouse fifth one's gonna be Matt six one's gonna be computer seventh one is gonna be
stand so I've now created my image and I need to place that into a Word document and then turn it
into a kind of worksheet so I'm going to click on the button up here copy all now all I need
to do now is open up word and paste that image in so I've got a word document up here and all
I'm going to do now is I'm just gonna simply print press control V and paste in that image
see how easy I can do that I don't even need to actually save it now I'm going to come down here
and I'm just gonna put right the correct word and then we'll do number one number two number three
number four number five Number six number seven and I've got myself super quickly obviously if do
it more professionally a worksheet like and then copy give to the students and they would have to
write in the correct word in whatever language that I wanted them to practice it in of course
it could be sentences for example but you see how quickly I can use that number in feature in Snagit
to create a worksheet okay this next feature is very interesting this one that I've actually ended
up using quite a lot and this would actually be a really good example imagine for example
an image captured this and obviously it's kind of difficult to if I want to highlight things and add
in text I'm very limited with the space that I've got because I've only really got this small area
up here maybe to add some text in so what I need to do really is to create some space on the image
and we can actually delete whole chunks of this image and then replace them with a color that's
for example in the background so I'm going to just show you how I can do this I'm going to click on
select and I'm going to select this image here and what do it with this one here as a perfect example
and then I'm going to click on autofill and then I've got various options and what I'm actually
gonna do is I'm gonna delete this and amazingly what's going to happen is the image is going to
disappear and it's going to be filled with the background color and it's completely gone and
this can be really useful if now I then wanted to have that extra space to to highlight things
etc so that would be one really useful example of where we could use it another example is if
you've got an image and then you want to tell your designer will delete this or delete that
so you can actually remove the things and show him exactly how you want the layout of your website to
be created and it's a feature that I've actually ended up making quite good use of it's this kind
of autofill feature in Snagit that was available in 2019 and again it's of course available in 2020
Snagit is a brilliant tool for doing thumbnails and in fact the thumbnails I create the images if
I ever want to make an image perhaps to put on YouTube or on Instagram i always use Snagit to
do this I'm going to do a really quick example again just to show you what I mean by this so
if I go to my desktop and I'm going to come down to new thumbs and what I'm gonna do is just grab
an image that I'm gonna then turn into a banner so we'll grab this one here quite like this image and
bring this image into the screen the first thing I'm gonna do is I'm gonna make the canvas of this
much bigger so I'm gonna pull out the canvas okay so I'm making this a lot lot bigger here and then
what I'm gonna do is click on this button here click here and paint that another color and now
I'm gonna resize that to be exactly the size that I want the image to be on I want it to be one to
eight oh by seven - oh and that is very typical for the thumbnail images that we put onto Twitter
and onto particularly onto YouTube now what I'm going to do is I'm going to add some text so I'm
going to click here and make sure that I've got in why I'm gonna choose perhaps impact which is
the one I normally use and I'm gonna make that a lot bigger humble to use about it's fully up
to 79 I'm having a marking area on the screen and I'm gonna write a basically my latest video
now I can save that now and then upload that as an image into YouTube or as an image to go
in front of a video that I've got perhaps on LinkedIn etc okay for my fifth example we're
gonna come back now to Snagit 2020 so this is a feature that you can only use in 2020 2019 is a
great technology as well but 2020 does offer these additional image from a template an image from a
video now we've already seen image from a video we're gonna look at image from a template this is
great for creating worksheets and though so far I haven't used this there's already a clearly a
moment when I am going to use this because this is ideal for creating handouts and I'm just going to
give you an example I'm gonna choose this template here so I'm creating the template and what I can
now do is I can grab assets that I want to use in this handout now let's imagine for example that
I'm going to be doing a presentation and I want my audience to have information about my website and
about my youtube channel and I'm gonna drag that video into that image story into the top one this
image I'm going to drag into the bottom one notice that they immediately go in now I'm going to put
a title here and the title is going to be very simple how to contact Russell or how to follow
Russell okay and you can see that I can kind of create a really nice document and I'm going to say
follow or Russell's channels let's just put that now okay so I'm making a template super quickly
and of course click here and begin to add some text and add some more text here and suddenly I've
created for myself basically I kind of hand out a document I can then print and use for example when
I'm given a presentation this would be brilliant for teachers making handouts that they want to
give to their students and the great thing is any image that they've either opened up into
Snagit or that they've image captured and they've got they can then drag them in and make use of
them and that's a really nice feature that's just been introduced into Snagit 2020 okay really hope
