Tips for Screen CaptureTips for Screen Capture Get set up before you start recording: close

programs you do not need and quit programs that have an alert (i.e. email, chat, cell phone)

Add narration to explain what you’re doing and why. Silent screen recordings are often a bit confusing.

Be as natural as possible – even stand up if possible during presentation

If you are showing how to do something, or the steps you took, use menus or click on buttons rather than using keystrokes.
