Using Video as a form of Social Media & Screencasting !


Videos are everywhere on the internet, they are one of the main things shared on social media sites, from videos on an iPhone of a prank to the News on tv3's website. You Tube is the main and most used platform for videos. I myself use it mainly to watch music videos and such, but everyone i know uses You Tube.


Screencasting is another use of video, you capture information from your computer screen then add an audio element to create a video. It is used by some of my lecturers for e-tutorials and also plenty 'how to' and educational videos on You Tube use this format.

- this website shows you how to screencast : http://www.screencast-o-matic.com , the demo video is very helpful and clear to understand !

You can edit your 'screencast' video on You Tube such as adding effects, music and narration.
