Can you annotate video in Captivate?

[UsernameNumber]

I have a pre-recorded video of a subject matter expert demonstrating something, and I would like to annotate the video (highlight important parts of the window, display key points, etc).

I was hoping I could do this by adding the video to a Captivate slide (both event and multi-slide) and then adding my annotations at the appropriate points on the timeline, but I'm having a couple of problems:

1. When the video is playing it displays fine, but when paused the slide becomes solid black, which makes it difficult to place things relative to what's on the screen, though that doesn't matter much because...
2. When the video isn't paused, it covers up any other objects (or at least those objects aren't visible, whatever the cause is)

I've searched around and haven't found anything on how to do this. Is it even possible, or will I just need to add the annotations in another program and then export/import from there into Captivate?

Confessing I never did use any of these work flows, but here are some of my ideas:

• Use Premiere Pro (or After Effects) to add the annotations or
• Capture the video with the Video Demo application coming with Captivate (leads to a cpvc file) and edit in the dedicated Video editor: you can add static objects, audio, create several video clips and add transitions, pan and zoom without quality loss etc.
