Hi Salma, just created an instructional video using your guidelines for my subordinates which will be used in routine to activate new employees. Camtasia is indeed an awesome solution. Good for anyone who can afford it. When I wasn't well off, I was using OBS and ScreenRec for this purpose because they are free screen recording applications. Now, Camtasia is doing an excellent job for me.

Salma is a premiere educator when it comes to content creation. I highly recommend this content.

[NeelsWorld]

Nice video Salma, and I have benefitted from your videos a lot. I personally use Windows PC and Screencast-o-Matic for screen recording.

[jyotsanabawa]

Salma, Make that Video! I love watching all your videos!

[mindfulbilingual]

So helpful! Can you also make a video on how to do those cool close-up cuts/sudden zooms that I see in your videos?

[jhovauni]

Screenflow only works on a mac. What do you recommend for merging and editing videos captured on iphone and the screen recordings on a windows pc?

[richelletvforyou]

Hi, Thanks for the video. How do I use a white board type program and record myself speaking and writing on the board? I only want the boards showing in my videos. Thanks for your help.

[hosseinamini]

Thanks for good tips
Is it better to record voice and video separately and merge them? or it's better to record voice and video at the same time?
I want to know which one is better for creating screen videos?

[oterosocram]

Question!
How are you switching scenes between the camera focusing on you and what's being projected in the PC? Thank you in advance.

Hi Salma, You are really an inspiration to someone like me, who is trying to jump back in the world of YouTube content creation. Especially this video is really timely for me, who has started created tutorials videos and uploading them weekly. I actually have a video uploaded today! Thanks for all the inspiration!!

Hi, I script sometimes and sometimes not... When I do, I might script out word for word, which can get very wordy, and also it’s tough to not LOOK like I’m reading. And I don’t know where to place the script in front of me or even how to put it there! When I don’t script, I might sidetrack or forget my words, but when I do I try to freeze so that I can edit out those empty parts without looking like too much of a jump cut! If it’s gonna be too much of a jump, I’ll put a photo in there or purposely jump into a closeup or pull back. But my question to you, Salma, is, where do you place your script so that you can read it, and not look like your eyes are reading?? And how do you place it? Thank you! Loving your new channel I’m a new subby!
