Webcammax found on http://www.webcammax.com/ is an amazing program. I was first referred to it because I was speaking with one of the industry leaders about using chromakey or what may be referred to as green screen.
The effects of webcammax even the free trial version amazed me. The first thing I realized is that anyone using a webcam can set up a background of their choice either from their own library or that of the settings pre-loaded.
The next thing that I noticed that the masks and special effects are top to bottom cool. My kids enjoyed the Shrek face as well as many of the other characters, it is a beefy program set up to wow anyone who is unaware of the technology. Then there is a rival/competitive record my screen software built in that lagged a little but is still pretty cool. This rivals camtasia. The cost is not to steep, however an instructional video might be nice in order to feed some ideas to the person browsing.
I would be willing to put together some demo videos because the software is just that fun. The next part about this is the large grey effects properties on the trial version. For all the features the trial has it may be good to promote what is to come when you purchase this as a product. The ability to turn this into a video and load it up to youtube is a pretty good idea.
I work on some video conferencing and notice that I look forward to the creation process with this added tool in the tool belt. The amazing thing is hardly anyone knows about it.
I started my son’s Youtube channel with this site, it was very engaging for him and he is constantly on me about the chance to record his next video. He is 7 years old and products like these really give the next generation an opportunity to explore and take their imagination to the next level.
Drawbacks of the program are these:
A little lag time in recording The Picture in Picture feature may or may not be there still?
The record my screen needs to have the option of illumination of the cursor.
The Youtube feature didn’t seem to work, maybe I missed it but are the videos embedded? This would be a very good feature to have.
*** Number one drawback. There is no affiliate link, I have referred this product close 40 people already ****
