I just used Camtasia - Screen Recording and Presentation Software for the first time to create a demo video about using the BlackBerry 8700c speed dial feature. It only took a couple hours to record the screen, add some captions, record a voice narration and presto change - I had a professional flooking flash presentation! This blog entry is not an endorsement of Camtasia, it’s just a reflection on how quickly things change. Just a couple years ago I would have had to hire a professional Flash designer to make this kind of simulation. Now the software is almost as easy to use as PowerPoint. I think this upholds the theory in the “Future Worker 2015: Extreme Individualism” article that the future worker will creating all of his or her own multimedia as a way to publish and express their work.
