Learning to Make Video Tutorials of Digital Watercolour Painting
Learning To Make Learning to Make Video Tutorials of Digital Watercolour Painting isn't as easy and as straightforward a process as I thought it would be. Here is the process I went through. It might save you some if you are planning to do it too! Whew! It's taken me 2.5 hours to make a short video using Jing and figure out how to post it on You Tube! In this process I had to see up a free Screencast.com Account, and open a folder to put the video in, to put it in a library. I also had to have a You Tube account and My Own channel. (I had opened My Channel before, but no videos were in it yet). Reading some of the short tutorials provided by Screencast.com and by You Tube helped. It also reinforced the idea that people learn better when having a visual example of something actually being done. This is my reason for wanting to start to do videos as part of my tutorials in the first place! I spoke too soon. It looked like it worked to me on You Tube, but when I opened it to play it I got the same message 'unsupported file format, video did not upload.' Mmm, I thought Screencast.com said it converted the files to an 'uploadable' format. What I failed to understand was that they meant uploading to the ScreenCast.com Sharing platform, which is nice, but doesn't get me the link and an upload to You Tube now does it?

(I have accounts on these sites). So, I didn't have to buy more software, but Movie Maker is not very user friendly and really doesn't seem to have much editing capability. There are free video editing software downloads to be found on the internet, but I worry about downloading free software in case of germs...I mean bugs and viruses.

Hi Joan
I posted you already and then I found this post, too.
So, record with camstudio.org in AVI format (far right button toggle SWF/AVI)
then use Windows Live Movie Maker (free with Windows, I use Vista Home Premium), import or just drag the AVI file in it and then > "Publish as">"youtube" (you need to have a free youtube account). That's it!
I haven't tried yet ( I have nothing to show) but it should work
