Free Screen Recording Software

Wiki Article

I want to talk about the different types of free screen recorder for windows 10, otherwise known as screencasting software, what it is, what it does, how you can use it, and what people use it for.

I'm sure you've seen videos on YouTube and other places online where people are recording what they're doing on their computers. They're shooting a video of what they're actually seeing on their computer monitors.

Screen capture video is one of the best ways to share how-to instructions for any number of things, whether it's how to work a piece of software, how to use the back office of the business you're in, and a lot of other things.

I do quite a bit of screen capture videos in my business, as you can see on my YouTube channel and on my blog. It's just a great way to add some personalization to your blog posts!

It's also a fantastic way to still do video marketing even if you're extremely camera shy because you don't have to put your own face on camera - unless you choose to. Most screencasting software has the option of recording your computer monitor and your webcam simultaneously, so your viewers can still see you.

And if you absolutely dread being on camera, you just deselect or choose not to launch the webcam portion of the software.

Screecasting is also an easy way to provide "one-on-one" tutoring and instruction without having to physically be at the other person's home. So yes, gone are the days where you have to physically be there to tutor someone!

Using this type of video also makes it easier than trying to picture what's on the other person's screen while walking them step-by-step over the phone on whatever you're trying to teach them.

I remember when I was on the job, and if I had a problem with my computer, tech support would initiate a program where they would literally take over my computer. Pretty eerie actually!

While you're sitting there doing nothing, your computer is almost working by itself! GoToMyPC or Citrix is a tool that's still around for remote access to your or anyone else's computer.

But if you're not comfortable with accessing someone else's computer to do instruction, or the other person isn't comfortable with allowing anyone to remotely access their computer, screencasting and sharing the video is the next best option.
