In this video, TechSmith's master trainer, Jason Valade, walks you through his own video editing workflow in Camtasia, TechSmith's video editing software. Jason covers everything from the basics of saving your project as a standalone file, to track customization, up through more advanced editing with our keyframe animations. If you're a new editor, or have been using Camtasia to edit videos for more than a decade, you're likely to find a tip or new trick to make your video editing workflow more efficient when watching over Jason's shoulder.
