Also Good to Know:
• Start Captivate with a right click & select Run as Administrator
• Captivate uses lots of RAM – you will sometimes see the (Not Responding) message – wait it out!
• Best to add audio later, during production (rather than while recording)
• Use the smallest recording size possible – keeps the finished project smaller. Try for 800x600 if you can.

Other Considerations
• Silence is golden• Try to reduce echo & background noise• Microphone tips
– 4-6 inches from mouth– Above, point down toward mouth– Just to side of mouth (softens s and p
sounds)• Calibrate your microphone! It does make
a difference!
