Hi guys, I was researching about this and didn't find anything useful, so maybe you can give me a hint about this. What is the software that marketers use to create their squeeze/sales videos? those with slideshows with a speech over them. I was checking several promotional videos from marketers and they look very similar, so I would assume they are using a special software to achieve this task. I was using Microsoft Powerpoint for these kind of videos, but maybe there is a targeted software that will help me to make the videos faster. Any ideas? Kind regards! Marce
I also vote for animoto as easy, see fiverr or look here on digitalpoint for people camtasia Proshow Producer Adobe After Effects powerpoint is very good to build slides see slideshare.com also used on LinkedIn.com On one of my websites I sell a program that does it in 10 minutes from txt files, very fast and effective good looking.

Camtasia is the best way to go. it's easy to use and the interface is definitely Google compliant. If you're not afraid to jump in front of the camera. There are many free options.
Camtasia is definitely the best way to go BUT I've also been very pleased with the Windows Live Movie Maker .. found out one day that it was already installed on my machine! I think it is much easier to use than Camtasia ...
I use a simple way. I create a classic presentation in Microsoft Powerpoint. Then I'll create own video ie themselves as speaking on camera. I use the classic web camera, or just a mobile phone with the option to take videos. Then this my own video I will put into the first image in Microsoft Powerpoint. For transform the presentations into video I use FREE software from iSpring Solutions. I cannot insert here URL, but go to Google and find.
I started with Windows movie maker for video editing then eventually graduated to Adobe Premiere Elements. APE is a bit more complexed and I still have a bit to learn. You can do so much more with it though.
Final Cut Pro (it has developed a large and expanding user base, mainly video hobbyists and independent filmmakers. It had also made inroads with film and television editors). Sony Vegas Pro (for beginners to quick editing). Adobe Premiere+Adobe After Effects (for experienced ones to quick edit and additional effects).
Windows Movie Maker is free and comes with a few good effects. It should work well with your power point slides since they are both from Microsoft. Adobe Premier needs deep pockets and you need the energy not to get discouraged especially if you are just starting out. There are numerous other possibilities. Your budget will determine how far you can go. I prefer short clips because people are always in a hurry and if they lose interest in your video in the first 10 seconds and your video is 10 minutes long, it means you will have wasted 9 minutes plus 50 seconds. You can check out a simple clip under 1 minute I just posted on YouTube to see what I'm talking about. Visit link below to check it out: http://youtu.be/h5XeQZVbkTI
Most marketers in my experience use Camtasia. It is costly, however - both on your pocket book as well as PC resources. Another choice would be Jing. If you have Windows, you could also use PowerPoint...
most marketers use camstudio or camstasia to make screencapture videos. They might use http://www.optimizepress.com/. It can do almost everything you want. (not endorsed or affiliated with them.)
When you tried Camtasia, then you never will using, or use to use some other soft. Will post in 20 min a version that can be used Just give me some time.
If you want to create a slideshow video I recommend you some of the MS products, if you want to record your screen, Camtasia would do the work better (my opinion)
You can find some software that could create video out of slideshow presentation. Google for slideshow to video converter. You just have to record a voice over and finalize audio and video with Windows Movie Maker.
