Hockey Pucks and Big Red Pointers for Camtasia

Growing up in Michigan, I have always been a hockey fan. I often went to watch games at Michigan State University and even played on a roller hockey team in college. And, if I couldn't attend a game, I would sometimes watch hockey on TV. I remember back in the early 90's Fox Television developed a special puck (FoxTrax) with internal electronics that would highlight the puck on the TV broadcast. That way viewers could easily see and track the puck on-screen. Sometimes it was hard to follow the action of small, fast moving puck on TV.
Just as the puck could be hard to track, the same is true for your cursor when screencasting. It can be hard on your viewers to follow your mouse movements. And, on some backgrounds, it may be nearly impossible to see your cursor. That's why I love this tutorial from video expert, Bill Myers! He'll show you how he makes his cursor big and red so his viewers can easily follow his activity. The video runs just 3 minutes long.
And, don't forget you can also highlight Camtasia Studio's cursor for added visibility. There is a tutorial here.
Thanks for sharing your tip with us, Bill!
