Are there some good examples of using Captivate 8.0 to produce product launch videos? I prefer to use Captivate over Camtasia. Thank you.

    To each is or her own I suppose. Given the significant price difference between Captivate and Camtasia, I'd be surprised to find that there are many folks out there using Captivate for product launch videos. I believe that you will find the vast majority of marketers are using things like Camtasia and combining it with other snazzy tools such as the whiteboard animation tools like Easy Sketch Pro or VideoScribe or maybe even PowToon.

    The bottom line here is don't be surprised if your post results in hearing mostly crickets. Captivate is overwhelmingly used for eLearning.

    Cheers... Rick

    Thank you, Rick. 

    Based on my own investigation, that is what I thought. However, I have Captivate, and I am familiar with the tool. I did see some cool PowToon and Camtasia examples, but I am not familiar with the tools, and I have a fairly unrealistic deadline for this video.

    Appreciate the quick response.

    Definitely use the Video Demo application coming with Captivate. Not as

    good as Camtasia but close.
