How make a video of my screen movements?

In the Windows world, I could/can use Windows Media Encoder to make a video of my screen along with my mouse movements, and voice... e.g. to send someone a mini training clip of what's on my screen.
How can I do this in the Mac world, please? Since Mac is way better at A/V stuff than Windows, I'm sure it's a piece of cake.
Thanks.

for now you need 3rd party software (this ability will be built in in snow leopard).
check this link for example

I haven't tried any of them so can't recommend anything first hand.

    Cannot recall the full line-up of Effects in Pr 6.5, but you should have the fixed Effect>Motion>Scale, which will allow you to resize the Clip. You might need to use Motion>Position in addition. Basically, you will doing a PiP (Picture in Picture), with no Clip below, just the black showing.
    Good luck,

  • How to record video or use screen capture WHILE capturing audio from Logic??

    Hi,
    I want to record my self playing guitar and singing using my mac book pro built in camera. I want the audio to come from Logic so I can add whatever effects I want to the vocals. When I say audio from Logic I don't mean recording in Logic and adding it in post. I want it to be on the fly.
    What I used to do was use the screen capturing program Snapz Pro. I would screen capture a box around photobooth for the video, and then record while having Logic's audio in the background. It screen captures my entire computers audio. So for example if I get an aim message the bleep would show up in the recording. Or if I raise the volume or lower it the little click sound fx would be in it as well.
    Capturing the audio this way let me get Logic's audio effects in my video on the fly. It worked out great....until now! :/
    I just got the audio interface "Duet 2". And am using a microphone instead of my mbp's built in one. When ever I tried to record and capture my systems audio - my entire computer would crash. Snapz Pro won't work with the system audio with the interface. It works fine without it though.
    I then tried to use Quicktime's new movie recording feature. I see it only gives an option for microphone and now system audio. So I got soundflower to re route the audio but that doesn't help either. This is because when you capture this way you can't hear anything while your capturing. So if I were to record a video and wanted Logics audio in it, I would have to set the output to Soundflower first. So when I record I cant hear myself which defeats the purpose.
    So my final question is, how can I record video while having Logic's audio? I don't need to record with the mic, because in Logic the mic audio is going thru the system audio with everything else.
    I would like to use a process more similiar to Quicktimes straight movie recording instead of doing an odd way like I used to screen capturing a box around the photobooth screen.
    Thanks

  • How do I create a wide screen movie in Premiere Elements 7 and burn to DVD or Blue Ray?

    I have created a movie using project settings of 16:9 and also filmed in this format.  The movie I burned to DVD is not in wide screen. I have requested assistance and given instructions to go through share and select Sony PSP.  However this creates a file which is saved to my computer in mpeg-4 format which will not burn to my DVD.  I am using a Blue Ray burner which looks as if it will only take MP3.  Any suggestions?

    I haven't actually done a BluRay yet - waiting to get everything right and,
    hopefully, will be able to put more than 1 movie when all is finished!
    That's my next challenge. I initially used Share/Disc to burn the DVD with,
    I thought, all the settings for widescreen.  It has always worked OK in
    Pinnacle.  When I lodged the problem with tech support they sent me
    instructions using the Sony PSP.  Interestingly I use a Sony camera, have a
    Sony disc burner plus Sony TV and Playstation so you'd think they'd all talk
    to each other!!!

    Are your creating and burning your DVD (or is it a BluRay disc?) from
    Premiere Elements by choosing Share/Disc?
    If so, it should produce a widescreen disc.
    Sometimes DVD players don't automatically read home-burned DVDs as
    widescreen and you have to manually switch it. But at the very least the
    video should be either letterboxed or stretched.

  • How to run video on multiple screens?

    I work in theater and video production. I recently bought a PowerMac G5 with PCI-e with the intention of adding another video card later, to be able to run 3-4 independent screens.
    Here's my question: What software do I need to run multiple synchronized video files from one computer? For instance, how would I play a music video with one audio track and two video tracks for two separate projection screens? Is there software that already provides this functionality (like Macromedia Director?), or do I need to write my own?

    Your best bet is to contact someone local who does this one a daily basis. Sport arena, local tv station, someone who sets up multimedia for parties...Dj...local computer club...
    You may be out of luck trying to do this with one computer. Would be too cpu intensive...

  • How do you make an video/image move or grow in size on screen?

    I'm trying to make my video clip move from one side of the screen to the next, please help.

    Double-click on the clip in the Timeline to load it into the Viewer. Click on the Motion tab and use the controls in the 'Basic Motion' section. Set a beginning keyframe for each control that you want to change over the duration, then reposition the playhead and make the adjustment(s) - new keyframes will be created if they differ from the initial keyframes you set.
    It's even easier if you set the Canvas window to Image+Wireframe and manually scale, rotate and center the image.
    This is pretty basic stuff and you should find plenty of information on how to perform these types of effects in the user's manual/help files. For much more comprehensive instructions, pick up a copy of Kevin Monahan's book "Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Pro"

  • Hello guys! Do you know how to make a video smaller on imovie? Not by size or trim, i mean simply show the video as small as possible in the middle of the screen! Please text back.

    Hello guys! Do you know how to make a video smaller on imovie? Not by size or trim, i mean simply show the video as small as possible in the middle of the screen! Please text back.

    Go to the Map, Background & Animatic Browser (last button in the centre tool bar alongside the Transition button). Drag the Black background (or any background) to your project. From an Event, drag the video selection directly onto the Black clip in the project. As you drop the video clip, a pop-up menu will appear. Select Picture in Picture.
    Your video will appear as a small picture within the black clip. Click on it and reposition it to the centre of the viewer, using the yellow guide lines to get the exact centre position. Resize the Picture in Picture if desired by dragging the corner handles.
    NOTE: You may need to extend the duration of the Black clip to match the duration of the video clip. Double-click on the Black clip to open the Inspector, then adjust the duration there.

  • How to Make Video Fit the Screen? (no boxing)

    Hi I have finished my video almost now. However when it is played back in WMV it is like in a letterbox in the middle of the screen. I want to upload it to YouTube so it will look quite small on the screen. Is there a way I can expand it to fit the screen better? There seems to be room both laterally and vertically to expand it. I just looked at the DVD box and it says 16:9 - is this widescreen? not sure. I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

  • How do I make my video into an old tv? Like with the old lines that move up and down and come in and out?

    If you have After Effects..it has some preset FX for exactly this.

  • Is there a way to make the quality of quicktime player better. when I take a screen movie of a demonstration video the quality when exporting to final cut is poor???

    is there a way usinig quick time player when recording a screen movie of product demonstration better quiality?

    FCE works in standardized broadcast frame sizes and frame rates. If your screen recording is not exactly the same pixel dimensions and frame rate as the sequence you are editing in, FCE will try to force it to fit, and that forcing may distort and reduce the apparent quality of your recording.
    Have you tried to render your clips on the sequence?
    Most people that are creating tutorials, etc. use dedicated software. If you have to do this a lot, then you might want to consider software such as ScreenFlow, which consolidates screen recording, editing/manipulating of the screen recording, and re-compression of your project for delivery in one application.
