What’s New In ScreenFlow 10
ScreenFlow 10 has a completely new UI — refreshed for macOS Big Sur with a new customizable toolbar, reworked preferences windows, improved timeline track functionality and main menu organization. We’ve worked at making this the best screen recording and editing software on the market. We know you’ll love it!

Title Library
We now have an integrated lower third and full screen title library with animations so you never have to build these elements yourself. The library is free and customizable, and what’s even better is that everything can be done within the ScreenFlow app to save you time and remove the need for additional 3rd party software.

Simultaneous Screen, Camera and Mic Recording
No other screen recording software offers this
Record virtually anything on or attached to your computer – yes, we mean virtually anything. With ScreenFlow 10 you can record multiple cameras, microphones and screens simultaneously, plus iPhones® and iPads® for nearly limitless possibilities.

Multi App Recording
No other screen recording software offers this
Want to record independent audio from multiple apps at the same time? Done. No need to redo everything if a notification accidentally comes through, just edit it out.  We’ve also added a new low latency mode for users of Digital Audio Workstation software enabling power-user workflows.

Video Filters
We’ve re-implemented color effects presets, re-coloring and more. Whether you use our built-in options, import your own Cube® look-up table or use options from a 3rd party, make every video reflect your brand and elevate production value.

Automatic Background Remover
Don’t have a green screen? Not a problem. ScreenFlow 10 comes with a state-of-the-art automatic Background Removal filter, powered by advanced machine learning algorithms and is optimized for Apple’s M1 Neural Engine.

Archive Storage
Let’s say you record 2 hours of video but edit it down to 30 minutes. With other software, the full two hours would still remain on your disk taking up valuable storage space. With ScreenFlow 10 we provide a destructive archive option so we’ll only store what’s being used in the final recording.

Major Performance Enhancements
ScreenFlow 10 is packed full of behind-the-scenes improvements to make sure your ScreenFlow experience is the best it can be. Up to 250% smaller camera recording at the same quality as ScreenFlow 9, up to 75% less CPU usage during camera recording, up to 300% faster thumbnail creation on the ScreenFlow timeline and up to 66% faster export on Apple Silicon hardware are just a few of the ways ScreenFlow 10 is the best ScreenFlow yet.                             

Even More To Love
ScreenFlow 10 has many improvements, including a new UI for Big Sur, a customizable toolbar for all documents, updated preferences layout, mouse pointer path smoothing when screen recording, playback canvas contextual clicking and enhanced settings for more rapid editing, ability to override system dark/light themes, and more!

ScreenFlow 9 is Now a Fully Fledged NLE https://news.broadfield.com/screenflow-9-is-now-a-fully-fledged-nle/ Thu, 12 Dec 2019 15:21:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=14472 Review: ScreenFlow 9 was once a dedicated screen capture software. But with the release of version 9 it aims to fill a gap in the market for a versatile, yet very easy to use NLE for Vloggers.

ScreenFlow 9 is a major upgrade to Telestream’s screen capture app for macOS. It’s fully Catalina compatible and has a slew of new features that make it possible to create a complete videocast and/or screencast without having to jump back and forth between ScreenFlow and your NLE. Version 9 has multiscreen recording, a Timeline Tools palette and a clip editor, and it comes with the ability to use automatically generated proxies. There are also new controls for the radar click effect and some major performance improvements. Telestream included a trial subscription to their stock images and videos service.

Before ScreenFlow 9, and to obtain the highest possible quality when you record yourself presenting parts of a screencast, you would need to jump back and forth between ScreenFlow and an NLE. The reason was that ScreenFlow’s files could become so huge you would sit waiting for the app to catch up with every edit you made. Proxies are the obvious solution to that problem. Now, I thought the proxy feature would be available on all types of recordings, but it isn’t. Telestream’s technical product manager told me proxies are only available when the app decides it makes sense using them. As ScreenFlow optimises the recordings you make with it, you cannot create proxies of these as that would not make any sense. They are available for imported media, though.

Proxy support gives you three options in the Preferences panel: Manual, Automatic and Always. In manual mode, you can create them using an option on the clip’s context menu. With many clips, you’ll get the “Not suitable for proxy” message because it doesn’t make sense to proxy. With 4K clips, however, you’ll quickly be able to create them — I tried it with a 2min 4K/30 MP4 (HEVC) clip. The size of the clip was 1.52GB; the proxy’s was 3.1GB. HEVC adds computational complexity in exchange for a lower bitrate while maintaining the same quality. On a GoPro space is at a premium and the goal is to store at the lowest bitrate/quality combination possible. In your NLE, storage space is not so much a concern, but the ability to playback the file without severely increasing CPU usage is. ScreenFlow will therefore decompress the HEVC file first and then store it as an optimised proxy file. With HEVC files, the resulting proxy will be bigger in most cases. With a high-res MP4 on the other hand, the proxy was 674MB; the original being 4GB.

It should be said that ScreenFlow 9 is quite fast when using any file — it’s much faster than previous versions overall — but I didn’t expect that the playback of the HEVC file would be more fluent and smoother than it was when using the proxy. The most probable cause is that, as ScreenFlow tries to keep the quality the same, the size at which that quality can be guaranteed affects the speed negatively, more so than the program having to play the HEVC file.

Multi-screen

Another new feature is multi-screen capability. Unfortunately, my secondary screen literally fell from my desk a day before I wrote this piece so I couldn’t try it out. I do know, however, that multi-screen means literally that; you need two or more real monitors hooked up. It won’t work with Catalina’s Sidecar or the Duet system extension and an iPad. Having said that, the product manager told me they’re trying to get support for Sidecar ready within the version 9 timeframe.

The new Clip editor is a clip display that allows you to create In/Out markers, move the selected In/Out points and the I/O range with the mouse and place the selected range on the Timeline. It makes ScreenFlow behave more NLE-like than ever before and it’s a feature that simplifies a job significantly.

Also in the department “making the user experience more like a real NLE” is the support for Hand, Zoom, Blade and Track Select functionality, controlled by either hotkeys or mouse-selection. Needless to say, these save time.

And now for the fun part of the upgrade…

Of course, Telestream had to include at least one fun improvement and what could be more fun than a fully adjustable Radar click effect? I guess the Radar effect is about the most often used when creating software presentations and tutorials as it is nice to look at and pretty efficient at drawing people’s attention and so, you can now adjust the size, colour, duration and blur to create the perfect look. Especially combining a blur with a long duration creates a mesmerising effect that, if your viewers have been burning the midnight oil, makes them fall asleep rather than keeping them on their toes, so use with moderation.

Finally, ScreenFlow 9 has updated capture card support, thumbnail image improvements and better manual media management. It’s the best upgrade of the app I’ve seen in years. ScreenFlow 9 is available from $129.

Hands on: New video editing abilities make ScreenFlow 8 a Mac professional’s must-have tool https://news.broadfield.com/hands-on-new-video-editing-abilities-make-screenflow-8-a-mac-professionals-must-have-tool/ Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:32:04 +0000 https://www.broadfield.com/news/?p=11170 From AppleInsider.com

ScreenFlow 8 used to be an exceptional tool for recording your Mac’s screen and it still is —but the new update has it knocking at the door of apps like Final Cut Pro for video production. AppleInsider sees if it adds with one hand and takes away with the other….

…ScreenFlow 8 is now there.

We’re still focused on using it for Mac screen recordings and there are some new features that particularly support this. For instance, you can now record a narration track right inside the app. Previously you would record it in some other app and then drag it into ScreenFlow as a another track.

Now you just press the button, choose your microphone and let ScreenFlow 8 play back your video as you speak. In practice you’re going to need to a good mic and studio surroundings as you edit or the audio quality isn’t going to be as good. Yet if you are editing in a good place, it’s extremely handy to be able to watch what you’re narrating as you narrate it.

You can also better see what your footage contains because of an improvement to the timeline. This is the Final Cut Pro- or Premiere-style bar beneath your video window that shows you the length of clips. It’s where you can move the cursor to skip through your material….read more

Telestream intros ScreenFlow V.8 for editing, screen recording https://news.broadfield.com/telestream-intros-screenflow-v-8-for-editing-screen-recording/ Wed, 08 Aug 2018 18:41:17 +0000 https://www.broadfield.com/news/?p=11144 From postperspective.com

Telestream’s ScreenFlow video editing and screen recording software for the Mac is now in Version 8. ScreenFlow V.8 adds new features including new styles and templates to help streamline editing workflows. There is also a new integrated stock media library option available.

The new templates allow users to pre-create ScreenFlow projects with placeholder clips in the timeline for important recorded media, as well as external media. Once a template is saved, future ScreenFlow recordings are opened directly in the template project, reducing the amount of editing required to complete jobs. For users creating software tutorials, serialized videos or even videos with similar formats, the new Templates in V.8 allow for quicker video production and less tedious editing, resulting in more time spent on the creative aspects of video production…read more

Working with Green Screens – Ideal World vs. Real World https://news.broadfield.com/working-with-green-screens-ideal-world-vs-real-world/ Wed, 21 Feb 2018 20:36:14 +0000 https://www.broadfield.com/news/?p=9785 From Telestream

We’ve been using green screens and chroma key filters in our WirecastLive and ScreenFlowLive shows as well as our webinars for a number of years now. During this time, we’ve learned a lot… but that’s not to say we don’t still have much to learn. One of the most important things we’ve learned over the years is that there are two worlds when it comes to live green screen work. The ideal world and the real world. Unfortunately for us, these worlds don’t always see eye-to-eye. If you’re like most people or organizations (low budget or just learning this for the first time), you will find yourself more often than not working in the real world. In an effort to take some of the guesswork out for you, we are sharing our top green screen tips (most of which we’ve learned through trial and error in our own studio), conveniently organized in order of reality.

Ideal World:

  • Spend the time and money to set up a pro green screen studio where you have enough room to shoot head to toe with green all around you to allow for wide shots, mediums and close-ups
  • Walls that aren’t green should be matte black and sound proofed to absorb light/minimize reflection and noise
  • Use a separate lighting rig just for your green screen to even out lighting, reduce shadows, and allow brightly lit but not blown out shots
  • Subject should stand 10-20 feet in front of the green screen to minimize bounce and splash
  • Light the foreground subject separately, match your lighting to your virtual set/background and make sure you light your subject’s head and shoulders properly to remove fuzzy edges and green spill
  • Hair is the trickiest thing to chroma key – spend time lighting it properly
  • Add blurs and filters to your backdrops and virtual sets to mimic focal lengths
  • Use moving backgrounds not static ones when possible/appropriate, even a small amount of motion can give “life” to a fake background
  • Ad props and real-world effects to match backgrounds as appropriate
  • Spend time testing ahead of time – different skin tones, clothing and props will key differently, and you will need to fine tune as you go (there is no 1-size fits all)

ScreenFlow is a more affordable option at $99, but it still packs a powerful punch. Like the other options, it also comes with a built-in video editor, so you don’t have to cross-platform your screen capture into another NLE.

ScreenFlow has an incredibly easy-to-use but powerful animation function. There’s not a steep learning curve in comparison with a compositor like After Effects. As you can see in the video, the animation introduction sets up within minutes. It’s elegant and smart, and it doesn’t require a textbook to learn.

ScreenFlow is Mac-only software, so if you’re looking for a cheap option for the PC, this isn’t your solution.

ScreenFlow can also capture recordings from an iOS device. This is incredibly useful if your educational content includes phone applications.

I think the best word to describe ScreenFlow is “easy.” It’s very much an A-to-B application with little to no fuss. You can even publish your screen capture straight from the software to Facebook, which is super cool if your audience is primarily based on your Facebook page and not YouTube.
