Great tips and advice! Would have been nice to see an example of a finished product demo using this template, but other than this helped a lot! Thanks!

Thank You Andy so much, for this valuable info. I was so confused before as to how I was going to make a short video for my product and here it is! Yes, I gave a thumbs up!

Nice work showing a demo of the product in a demo of the product video! Content very helpful!

Thanks for making this video. It was really useful to hear you lay this out for a demo content in such a clear, step by step way.

When I click the link for the free template, it asks me to "buy subscription." Doesn't seem free to me

Hi Andy. Your video is very good.
I have been using camtasia for many years.
Until recently, it used the 2022 version.
I started using camtasia 2023 and I really missed the old rendering patterns.
In the past, it was very easy to put a watermark on the video.
In camtasia 2023, in the default rendering mode I didn't see a way to do this.
And there is a message stating that later this year, camtasia 2023 will no longer work in the old rendering mode.
Can you give me some guidance?
To put a watermark on the video in an easy way.
Thank you very much in advance.
Kind regards, Carlos.

How do you animate the numbered steps in the video?

Pretty nice and everything but your product's free trial generates a broken url...

Hi sir, I'm looking with it now, but we need a professional designer in a hurry to make our product demo of our software if possible you can do for us, or you can recommend someone because we couldn't fine a serious one if Fiverr, materials will be provided too.

This is why I hate showing up late to the party. This template isn't free anymore. And you can't purchase it by itself. $199 for a subscription... ☹
