No matter your (video/photo) slide show is produced and played in Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Slides, Mac Keynote, system photo app or other slideshow makers, you can record slide show video with your narration audio and facecam overlay effortlessly once you have an easy slideshow recorder.
Visually-oriented content is a craze, and many customers tend to do live or (pre-record) online video presentation by taking advantage of ready-made slideshow to spread their ideas and make connection with their audiences. Consequently, there is a plethora of handy slideshow makers that we can utilize to build pro-looking and engaging demonstration. Among those popular slideshow makers, free PowerPoint from Microsoft, Slides from Google, Spark from Adobe, and Keynote from Apple are particularly enjoyed by a large number of people.
However, when it comes record slide show on computer, according to actual user feedbacks around or on the web, it’s easy to find out that many slideshow creators’ integrated recorder doesn’t service well for various capture requirements, for instance the recorder doesn’t support putting front camera window on to slide, it fails to capture voice narration properly, there’s no mouse pointer during slideshow recording, video recording is too large/incompatible with end player and the slideshow producer is not equipped with recorder at all. Therefore, record slideshow with third-party screen video recorder is a more reliable way to go.
In view of the different types of screencasting tool, I will pick 3 representatives with their detailed instructions. Hope you can find the one that suites you most for a pleasant slide show video capture.
