This is like the best beginner tutorial I've seen in years on Camtasia! Great work Kevin. And now I want more! LOL

[MrPhilsAlabamaHotSauce]

Kevin, I have now watched about a dozen of your videos. Your presentation style, voice control, and subject selection is wonderful. I really love that you search and find free assets we can use. Again, thank you for the great content.

[reasonfairness]

Starting with my first Camtasia project and I'll recommend this video to my teammates. Very direct to the point and gave all the basic information I needed. Good job!

[careersbyeve]

Kevin, why has Camtasia not hired you by now. Your tutorial was extremely informative for this first time user compared to Camtasia's video which made too many assumptions that I knew terminology and basic video production. Because of your fantastic teaching, I will be able to create my tutorials and get them published with less stress. THANK YOU!

All I could think about while watching this is... Do you actually own a cookie company, Kevin?

[dr.mccallum]

Thank you for taking the time to produce this video. I have been using Camtasia for years but still picked up something new. I already downloaded 2021 and I can't wait to play around with it. All the best!

[marisah]

Seriously the BEST Camtasia beginner tutorial! Kevin, you are an amazing teacher. Thank you so much!

[JWestdigital]

Hi Kevin - So did you record the screen in 1080p and then scale it up to put it into a 4k video to release on to YouTube on your channel?

[adrianvanleeuwen]

Thanks Kevin. A very thorough video. I will be watching it all over again to absorb all the information as there is a lot, and it was clear and concise. Thanks again.

[ababb_TX]

Terrific video. Have watched several Camtasia how-to's, and this contains in less time everything you need to know to get started. Five-star

[colinbartlett]

This is a FANTASTIC tutorial for this software. So clear and well-paced. Thank you!

[balacodeapps]

Comprehensive, simple and amazing tutorial. Great job Kevin!

[BusinessLoanBrokerCoaching]

I'm so happy that I watched this Video,
I had Camtasia for years and NEVER watched a Single Tutorial on it.
I learned so Much!
Can't wait till my Next Video,
I'm gonna Kill it!
Thanx Kev

[StephanOnisick]

Really Great Introductory Video. Kevin shows you how to use the feature. His demo is Spot On!

[somshubhraghosh]

I have to finish my project and thanks to you!! I have learnt camtasia and my video is much better.

[SpotlightImpact]

Thanks for this video Kevin! I just started using Camtasia, OBS is a little too intimidating for me right now ;)... Love Camtasia's pan & zoom tools, I started making shorts and this tool is so useful in helping pan across the screen. Thanks as always for super informative and accessible content!

[smuccilicious]

This is exactly the type of video I was looking for for this subject matter. Thank You!! Great job.
