RE: Screen Videos

["Chris McQueen" <chrism -at- docutechcorp -dot- com>]

Jim:

If I understand you correctly you have several large videos that you
would like to separate into small videos.  If that's the case, usually
you would import the large video into Camtasia (i.e. Import media) and
then cut, split, or adjust the length of the video to the size you want
for one of the small videos.

Once you have adjusted the large video to be a small video (i.e. one
chapter) you use the 'Produce Video As' and create a new video.  Your
original large video remains intact and you now have a small video.

I suggest you look at the "Working with Clips & Elements on the
Timeline" (at least that's what it's called in Camtasia 3) to understand
how to adjust the video.

If this doesn't help, feel free to contact me, I have a fair amount of
experience with Camtasia.

Subject: Screen Videos

Hello All,

I recently used Camtasia Studio 4 to create screen videos (tutorials).
Specifically, I did this by creating multiple audio and video tracks.
My
produced videos contain 4-5 "chapters" and are 20-50MB in size.

The project manager has decided that he would like these videos broken
out
into smaller, chapter-size videos that can be streamed more quickly over
the
web.

Problem:  I can't figure out how to do this in Camtasia - how to copy
certain portions of my timeline/storyboard and paste them into new,
smaller
videos.

In my opinion, it's akin to taking a PDF created from multiple files,
and
separating back to its component files.  Has anyone ever done this
before?
I can't find this particular topic in the Camtasia help file.

TIA,

Jim
