This practical resource helps you make a useful recording without turning it into a production project. Keep it open as you prepare your next walkthrough.
Zoom to answer a question
A zoom is useful when a control or detail would otherwise be hard to see. Let the action provide the reason.
Stay wide for orientation
Keep enough of the surrounding interface visible for people to understand where they are.
Give motion time to settle
Smooth transitions help the viewer follow the change. Avoid moving the camera for every small pointer movement.
