Since that was my original process anyway, this will save me tons of time on future tasks.

You can also share them directly to YouTube. The best part is, you have the choice to save the files directly to your computer OR store them on Google Drive. With it, I can easily do video reviews of websites or make video tutorials for my clients. In my tests, it was able to keep up with high framerate video and audio without any problems, even in high resolution. Screencastify works with the Chrome browser itself to record screencasts of whatever you are doing. If you have a Chromecast, and have been following what you can do with Chrome apps on it, you’ll know what I’m talking about. Screencastify is part of that new batch of Chrome apps that are just awesome. So I figured, “some time has passed since I’ve looked… there must be an easier way now!” The final straw was today when I was trying to do a recording for an upcoming review of the Jurassic World website, and half the audio was missing and the video ran at about 0.5 FPS. It got the job done most of the time, but it really wasn’t cutting it anymore, especially for full-screen screencasts. I’ve been using a free program called “Screen Recorder.” The interface is bad, it has a terrible framerate, and sometimes the audio cuts in and out. And with a little help from a plugin I developed called Video Dashboard, I can embed those videos directly to their WordPress dashboard where they’ll never get lost.īut the program I’ve been using to do it is frankly… not great. After I upload it to YouTube, they are able to view it over and over again as needed. One thing I love doing for clients is producing video tutorials of myself on their actual website, doing tasks that they are trying to learn.
