The cursor is part of the story.

Why a little motion creates a lot more clarity.

A viewer often follows your pointer before they understand the interface. CrazyCap smooths cursor movement after recording, keeping the action easier to follow while you remain in control of the finished video.

01 · A visual cue

Give the viewer a moment.

A short pause gives the viewer time to find the place you are about to use. It is a small courtesy that can make a walkthrough easier to follow.

02 · Steady paths

Keep movement deliberate.

Long, hurried cursor paths can be hard to follow. Move directly to the next useful action and let the screen do the explaining.

The goal is not a perfect recording. It is a recording that lets the idea come through.
03 · Keep it human

Use Studio when a moment needs a change.

Automatic cursor smoothing sets a helpful default. In Studio, you can review the result and make adjustments before you export.
