This tutorial/product demo I produced for DealerTrack DMS was my first complete video using Adobe Captivate. Captivate is a screen recording/editing software. It’s different than Camtasia and other screencapturing software in that it focuses on the post-production aspects of screen recording and editing. It gives the user options to add callouts, mouse movements and clicks, and other assets after the recording is completed. So in other words, you can build a screen recording from the ground up.

I used Captivate to walk the customer through the DMS Desking Suite while teaching them step by step how to navigate the software. I think it turned out well, though now I don’t use Captivate anymore. DealerTrack hired a recent college grad to produce all the Captivate projects. It’s fine by me – less software for me to learn.
