When annotating a video recorded with Camtasia Studio 6.0 (or any version after 4.x) you might want to take advantage of the SmartFocus feature to automatically add zoom and pan frames to the video. For code demonstrations, this really helps focus the user’s attention on the small bits that are hard to see from the back. Tip: remember to record the screen using the .camrec format, not .AVI. Apparently Camtasia needs the extra information kept in the .camrec files to manage the SmartFocus feature.
