Some channels do some crazy complicated edits and when seeing their timeline it makes my mind hurt. Zoom and Pan is a simpler editing technique in comparison that helps add some movement to the screen, but more importantly, helps the viewer find what you are talking about. Especially, in screen recording type videos.
Thanks ! If I want to zoom the whole clip, should I expand error from end of end ? or there is more simple way. I don't need any transition period/fragment.
Hi, what you want to do if you would like to zoom in without anyone noticing the zoom you would go to the very edge of the beginning of the clip and place the zoom there. Make the arrow all the way down to just seeing the dot on the edge and because the play head goes over it so fast it wont show the transition. I do this when I am going from one take to another and don't want the audience to be aware that the video was filmed in pieces. A hint if you have to do this in the middle of a clip. I look at the zoom percentage at the end of a clip and then match the zoom percentage to the beginning of the next one. I used to eyeball it but then realized, this could be easier, use the data the tool provides.
Thank you! Is it possible to add blur or custom background behind you, so if I don't want people to see what's behind me when I record my screen and show myself in the small corner?
Hi, the feature that will probably work best for your question is background removal people don't see what is behind you. While there is a blur it is more of a blunt tool to blur a whole region. The other option is use a greenscreen or something that is all one color and then use a remove a color option. This will also isolate just you in the frame. It would take a bit of trial and error to find what you like best.
Yep, that is what I was trying to say but you said it better. I appreciate that you clarified so that others reading along can see the answer in various ways. Each person can process the info in a way that is meaningful to them. Thank you fellow learner.
I love the zoom and pan tool for Camtasia on MS Windows PC, but this tool is NOT available for Mac. You can still zoom and pan with the custom animation control, but its not near as easy and convenient . When I used to edit on Windows PC, it went so much faster than it does now. I don't know why its not available on Mac, but I sure do miss this tool !!
I did not know that about Mac as a PC kid. Thank you for giving that heads up in case others are on a Mac as that is important to know. Always love when someone shared their lesson learned. Thanks.

thanks vary informative 😍
You are welcome
Thanks Heather again, just tested and realized if you put it the very beginning, you see just red circle/dot. This is actually right end of the arrow.
