What is Screencasting?

What is Screencasting?

"A screencast is a digital video recording that captures actions taking place on a computer desktop. Screencasts, which often contain voice-over narration, are useful fordemonstrating how to use specific operating systems, software applications or website features.

Screencast production requires some kind of video-capture software and a microphone. The software, which can be a desktop client or web-based service, captures andsynchronizes the video and audio files and compresses the completed movie into a format that can be shared."
