Here is my beginning to end ScreenFlow Recording and Editing Workflow! Did you learn anything new?!

[@ClaireWrimo]

Yes I didn't know I could use Streamdeck for editing, yay!😀

[@ladyfermenter-ThanksAPint]

You always have the most complete tutorials. Thanks Meredith!!

[@meredithmarsh]

Thanks for watching!!

[@theapril20]

Hi Miss,I found you on Google today,I searched how to be consistent and upload more videos and they recommend your info ,I read everything and now I'm here,thanks for all You helped me so much,this is all I need, I'm a small youtuber,and I I want to learn more how to create contents.

[@TheresaCroft]

I had to update my screenflow skills as I sat it down for a few years. I always look for you..because you explain easily and are so pleasant to listen to. Thanks you Meredith!!!!!!!!!

[@meredithmarsh]

😍 thank you Theresa 🙏

[@_AnthonyGauna]

Recently decided I want to take a chance at sharing things on KZbin and wasn't sure on if I should purchase Screenflow or not. Watched this video and immediately decided to purchase, but also subscribed to your channel and got inspired. The pace and flow of this video is so good. Thank you!

[@meredithmarsh]

Thank you so much for subscribing?

[@augustoliver2779]

I have the same mic and it is a good one.

[@susanwheeler-hall]

Just discovered your channel, wish I had sooner! Excellent pace and style thank you

[@meredithmarsh]

Thank you 🙏 glad you found me! Thanks for watching!

[@susanwheeler-hall]

What microphone are you using or do you currently recommend? I have the Rode podcaster but I've had issues with it picking up a lot of background noise including fans and keyboard clicks. I've looked at the Shure models, are they any better?

[@ArnoutDrenthel]

I think you don't need to eyeball the round cropped talking head. There's logic in the numbers there. What I found that works is using this logic in calculating the exact values, that depend on the resolution of the original video-file. Corner Round is ½ of the Height of the videoresolution: 540 for a 1920×1080 video Cropping (L and R) is ½ of the difference between Height and Width of the resolution. So a 1920 × 1080 video would be cropped left and right for exactly 420 (or any combination of 840 combined). It's pixel perfect. Thanks for an insight of your workflow though! Learned a few nice tricks to speed things up!

[@meredithmarsh]

Math?! Yikes! :) I think you're on to something though. The issue is my face isn't necessarily perfectly in the center or the frame, or I want it zoomed in a little. But you're totally right... I could just use math!

[@Alex-es3fd]

Hey Meredith, how do I go back and forth between showing myself full screen to showing the recording with me in a corner? Thank you so much.

[@DigitalPhotoMentor]

What is stream deck?

[@ClaireWrimo]

Hey Meredith! Thanks for this great tutorial, I've learned so much! I'm losing track of all the software we can use, there are so many great options. Ecamm, Descript, Screenflow... Which is best for what? (Or is it more complicated than that?)

[@meredithmarsh]

It’s more complicated than that ☺️

[@DaveCantShave]

Did you move to ScreenFlow because of mouse lag with Camtasia, or do you just think it’s an easier software to use?

[@mashak3065]

Hi. I've been enjoying your videos! If my goal is to screen record multiple choice practice exams (one question and 3 possible answers on screen at a time), while also recording my face reading and explaining the correct answers, do you think ScreenFlow or Descript would work best?

[@meredithmarsh]

I’d use Screenflow for that!

[@TheresaCroft]

Curious why. Why does my top bar of my computer not have the "video start" video...cannot figure that out.

[@sebastopolband]

Hey Meredith. Really great video. What is the approximate ratio of the time you spend editing to the length of the video? eg 5:1 would mean 60 mins editing for a 12 min video. I’m sure it varies but what might an average be?

[@meredithmarsh]

Thanks! I’ve never measured. Some videos take 10 hours to edit especially an in dept screen recording. Some take 1 hour to edit.

[@miguelkieling532]

Hey Meredith! Did you notice any video capture quality increase when you compared Rode X to Camlink? Thanks

[@meredithmarsh]

I didn’t notice a difference but I didn’t go very in-depth in my testing ☺️

[@samm7547]

I encountered an issue which can't seem to solve. So audio waveforms go completely flat after making edits (could be a cut, could be applying a filter like synching the audio and video). There's only one solution on their official website but I've tried it and it doesn't work. :(

[@helloapple556]

Hi need help in screenflow exporting.. I did record 4KUltra ppt videos loss resolution while exporting in 1080p. Used ( 4KUltra record, manual, 50fps, 6000 datarate, multi-pass ), Could u please explain while I export my recording PPT even I record in 4KUltra, the recording is great but I found its slight blurry while exporting in 1080p size, when I export the same 4K file, the ppt is clear but as many courses hosting websites need 1080p video files, so the export is slight blurry, what’s the solution, please . Telestream don’t respond Mail, sad to say..

[@melissakozaruk5363]

I have already purchased Descript. Do you think you need this too if you already have another software like descript?

[@meredithmarsh]

It all depends on what kind of videos you’re creating

[@mikeshuey]

Just curious... have you ever had your audio waveform in ScreenFlow appear very small? Just upgraded to a new MacBook Pro and reloaded ScreenFlow. The audio sounds normal, but the audio waveform is tiny. My guess is ScreenFlow doesn't like the new Sonoma OS. Thoughts? Can't find a fix online. Thanks in advance for your help 🙂

[@meredithmarsh]

I have noticed that as well honestly. It’s really annoying. I’m not sure what the fix is!

[@mikeshuey]

@@meredithmarsh It may be time for me to move to a new editor... this is really unusable. I love Screenflow, but time to try something else. I guess Descript or just dive into Davinci Resolve.
