One of my favorite courses of all-time, and I'm sure it's beyond better now. If you want to get better at screencasting, this is THE way to do it.

We have been working hard to make screencasting​.com the comprehensive destination for all things screencasting. 🎉 We're excited to announce FIVE new courses 🎉 • How to Screencast • Screenflow • Premiere Pro • DaVinci Resolve • Final Cut Pro But that's not all!

do we hate or love @aaronfrancis.com for this?

Love this: "For me, I just kind of YOLO everything. If the audience wants to follow along, that's great! Because I have to do this for many years, I have to want to keep going." – @aaronfrancis.com
