Using transparent PNGs for a more professional ScreenFlow screencast

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

For the moment, the professional screencasting software ScreenFlow doesn’t allow for titling in the user’s screencasts. Also, the options for incorporating a user’s keystrokes* into ScreenFlow videos leaves a lot to be desired. Both titling and keystrokes can be achieved with little effort by introducing overlayed transparent images (PNGs) into the timeline. Scraster Professional Screencasting has put together a short HD video to explain this work-around. Please watch in full-screen for best picture.

UPDATE: As of the recent release of ScreenFlow 1.5.1, ScreenFlow now offers titling natively.
