Mac shortcuts for n00bs

11 August 2008 by kristarella

Making and editing a screencast

2 July 2008 by kristarella

On Monday night (a week and a half ago) I recorded a screencast tutorial (or tutecast as Gio called it). It was the first time I’d tried something like that. It took several attempts and a week of trying to compress the video to get it right. It might take a bit more practice to […]
