New Features in Camtasia Relay 4.0:
- Camera Support: Camtasia Relay 4.0 enables users to capture video of an individual lecturing in the classroom and imbed that video side-by-side with written course material. The result is a recorded lecture or presentation that includes the speaker alongside her or his written presentation materials. The recorded lecture can be viewed any time by students with any device. This feature provides students with an even more in-depth learning experience outside the classroom setting, as they will be able to directly see the professor or speaker rather than only hearing their voice annotate written materials projected in the classroom. Even with this additional video feature, the recording process will maintain its three-step simplicity.
- Global Caption Editor: After recording a video, many professors or presenters don’t have time to edit the captions. That’s why Camtasia Relay 4.0 allows them to designate someone else to review and change captions remotely. After a video is recorded, this designated editor will receive notification that a video is ready for them to review. When video editing and captioning is completed, the video can be uploaded to various outputs in one click.
- Direct Publishing to YouTube: Camtasia Relay 4.0 comes with fully automated, one-click publishing directly to YouTube, where professors can publish and share their video with students anywhere in the world.
