'Film My Desktop'

How can I record a video demo to use when I am presenting?

RE: 'Film My Desktop'

Hello Mike,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft PowerPoint course with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding how to film your desktop.

There are many screen capture programs available which do this type of thing. Some are free and some have to be paid for. Some of the paid versions have a free basic version and a paid for professional version.

Some names I know of : Camstudio / Camtasia / Snagit

Try the following link for a review of screen capture programs some of which have video capture.

Don't forget, if you want to create a video of your slide presentation, click File > Save & Send > File Types > Create a Video. I have used this before and uploaded the video to YouTube.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney

Another great program to record desktop/webcam and have different 'scenes' and sources all in one is OBS studio, which is free.

PowerPoint tip:

Removing unused toolbar buttons in PowerPoint

Are there buttons on your PowerPoint toolbars that you never use? Remove them from the toolbar by doing the following:

1. Go to Tools - Customise - Commands.
2. Select the toolbar button you wish to remove, then use your mouse to drag and drop the button into the PowerPoint window. When you release your finger from the mouse, the button will disappear.
