World Politics Review screencast by Scraster Professional Screencasting

Scraster Professional Screencasting recently produced a screencast for World Politics Review, a premium provider of information and analysis on international affairs found online at worldpoliticsreview.com. The general manager at WPR approached Scraster with a familiar problem among paid-content websites: “We have all this great content behind our homepage, but we’re afraid people don’t know it’s there”. It was the objective of WPR to create a site tour that would show off the site, inside and out. WPR wrote most of the screencast script, and Scraster took control from there. The end result is an engaging screencast that servers two main purposes. First, the video is a introduction of WPR to new visitors who are unfamiliar with how to navigate the content-rich free side of the site. As well as giving unsubscribed visitors a cursory tour of the free content, the later part of the WPR screencast invites free users to consider the many benefits of WPR’s premium subscription service, which include a wealth of additional reports, downloads, and other exclusive content.

A professional screencast for LiveChime

A Video from Scraster Professional Screencasting

Scraster Professional Screencasting is pleased to introduce its most recent satisfied client, LiveChime. LiveChime is a Seattle-based start-up that creates an easy way to add live chat to online classified, auctions and marketplaces “to bring you the best buyer-2-seller results on the web”. Scraster bumped into LiveChime’s Erik Bergsagel on Twitter, where Erik asked his tweeps if they knew of any good professional screencasting services. A few tweets and a phone call later, Scraster was on its way to writing, recording, and producing the screencast for LiveChime’s tight Friday deadline. The video was delivered Friday and will be featured on the LiveChime site soon as the beta product gets closer to its official launch.

Working with LiveChime was a pleasure, but perhaps the coolest thing to come from our new business relationship is that Scraster now has a live chat link on each page of its website. LiveChime was as easy as could be to set up, and we’ve already had a trickle of inquiries–one of which led to a close. Although LiveChime is (for now) primarily targeting the online classifieds market, users of all kinds (like Scraster) can register and stick the chat link wherever they’d like. I’d highly recommend the service to anyone looking for a way to increase their accessibility. Visit the LiveChime website at http://livechime.com for more info. If you’d like to learn more about Scraster, and how Scraster helps companies like LiveChime engage, sell, and educate their site visitors, contact us today via our Get a Free Quote page.

Scraster Professional Screencasting: a 3-minute introduction

Friday, December 19th, 2008

When the Scraster Professional Screencasting website was launched, it was missing one crucial element – an enhanced screencast of its own to explain the services of a professional screencasting production shop. So here it is.

“Scraster Professional Screencasting: a 3-minute introduction” was produced in HD for your full-screen viewing pleasure. Its purpose is to inform the viewer about what screencasting is, why a lot of screencasts online are ineffective, and how Scraster Professional Screencasting goes about making a video that’s a cut above. The introduction video is presented here with Scraster’s new customized Blip.tv video player, which we were very happy to find among the mess of web video sharing options available.

Thanks for watching, sharing, Digging, and enjoying the video.

Happy holidays to you from Scraster Professional Screencasting. Let’s go kick some ass in 2009.
