Anyone with experience with Camtasia?
Other wise how can I do it in Storyline? Only one page, one video one scene?

- This is exactly what I am hoping to do
https://content.cloudguides.com/en-us/guides/Modern%20Data%20Analysis%20in%20Excel I'd start with the training video here and use the Record Screen feature in Storyline.
You can record step-by-step and then add audio on the slides.
Here is a quick overview, but definitely watch David's training video.
This was perfect Tom, your instructs and David's were clear. One minor question is do I need to place any triggers on the large hotspot we put in at the beginning so the user can click just anywhere on the video?
Thank you kindly
Hey there Nadine
I was trying to do this the other week in Rise and had no success. From what I could find out, if you want to have those Camtasia hotspots working you have to publish the Camtasia file in a certain way - and the published file type wouldn't upload into Rise. The only other way is to use the Storyline screen capture function which should achieve what you want.
Good luck!

The interactive Camtasia content needs to be hosted somewhere and then can be inserted using the embed block and an iframe
Piggybacking on this post, I'm curious if anyone is currently using Camtasia in addition to Articulate. Do you feel that Camtasia is a necessary tool for creating trainings and screen recordings/demos, or are all of your screen captures and editing needs met in Storyline? Any input about how you use Camtasia would be appreciated!
Camtasia is a good app for screencasting and video production. Many people use it in conjunction with Articulate 360 and then import the .MP4 into Storyline or Rise.
As a video editor, it has a lot more capabilities than the editing options in Articulate 360. If you're making interactive videos and assessments, then I'd insert the video into Storyline and leverage the features there rather than build them in Camtasia and try to embed that into Rise or Storyline. You'll have a lot more options in Storyline in terms of interactivity and integration with the other parts of your course.
Hi Tom - Thank you, that's helpful to know!
