I use ScreenFlow because I am on a Mac but I mmay switch to Camtasia. I have more requests for PC tutorials so I thought if I used the same tools on Mac and PC then it wouldn’t be 2 skillsets to keep up. Plus with Camtasia on a PC I can virtualize Linux and record with Camtasia running in the background, multiplying even more the kind of work I can do.

I’ll be on my way to your site to see what’s there, thanks again for visiting.

Just my own opinion and favorite techniques:
(a) Make it more visually interesting with callouts and more things happening visually, reinforced by the commentary. The visuals should reinforce the auditory.
(b) There is a lot of visual clutter, including Windows desktop stuff. Zoom in slightly when recording to eliminate **everything** that does not contribute to the thesis.
(c) The fade thru blacks are very effective.
(d) If using Camtasia Studio, see my website and blogs for specific examples of using the special effects that could “spice up” the visual appeal.

Just so there is no confusion, I think this cast is top notch, well organized and executed. My comments are “icing on the cake” in nature.

Keep up the great publishing.
