Mac Screen Recorder

March 9, 2017 by Judy Baker

Mac Screen Recorder is Easy to Use

It is software that you can use as soon as it is installed. You don’t need to have a filmmaking degree or be a technical genius. If you are looking for easy screen capture and movie making software, this is it.

I made this video using the built-in iSight camera on my iMac. I did a couple of takes using the built-in system speakers and I was not happy with the sound quality. Once I switched to my Blue Yeti microphone (USB), the sound was much improved. This video is a quick experiment. I could make it better and spend more time to refine. For my purpose of testing the software, this is a good enough result.

My main goal: could I produce a viable movie in a few minutes, upload it and share it.

Mac Screen Recorder passed the test with flying colors.

It is not as feature rich as Camtasia or Adobe Premiere. Where Mac Screen Recorder shines is its simplicity.

Need to create a training video for clients? This will work for you. You have options to upload to YouTube, Vimeo, share by email or text and a few more.

I give it 4.5 stars.

They also make apps for Windows users.

Sharing Your Stuff Made Easy

Sharing With Ease

Sometimes I feel like sharing something great with my friends and fans. And then, I start to do it and find that it takes too much time or too many steps. Have you ever wanted to share a good review or a testimonial and found that it took you so long to do it that you gave up half way through the process?

What if you could click on one button that would take you to a social site like Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, LinkedIn, Pinterest or even an email share of the super cool thing you want to share?

Have no fear, there is a solution that is easy, free and awesome. What is it you ask? Sharelinkgenerator. I made a link in under in 5 seconds:

Now, think about using this to promote your latest book, a new service or product. Pretty sweet.

This is just one of the great tips I learned about from Tim Grahl on his podcast, Book Launch Show.

Tim started this podcast in December 2016. Each of his episodes is about 15-20 minutes of great information for self-published authors. If you want to check out the podcast, click below.

Now you know how to make it easy to share your stuff with your fans. Sweet.

Why I like the Book Launch Show

Each episode is short, to the point and taken from Tim’s real like experiences. It is not full of fluff or lots of self-promotion. It is solid information that is proven to work for authors. He has a pleasant voice and delivery style. Even though he is very experienced, he doesn’t talk over the heads of a newbie.

I appreciate his practical approach to book promotion. Listen and learn. It’s easy.
