Assignment 4: SnagIt
You should find this last assignment to be quite a breeze now that you've mastered Camtasia and Impatica.
1. After you've downloaded the trial version of SnagIt, you should play around with it to capture various types of screen shots, including "region," "scrolling window," and "record video screen." Remember, back in the video module when we had to create a screen shot the long, manual way? This way is so much easier.
Now, for the "record video screen" the quality is fuzzy in SnagIt compared to Camtasia, but still useful for many projects. For your assignment, you'll just use the Web page (keep links) function.
2. Find a website that you like - any website. It could be about technology, travel, dinosaurs, or whatever you wish.
3. Now, using the "Region" tool, select a portion of the webpage, including the part that is of the greatest interest to you. After you capture it, a new SnagIt window will come open. Use the Edge effects on the right side of the screen to give your image a "wave" edge.
4. Use the callout tool and create an arrow (like my example here) to point out something on the region you saved.
