After many weeks of waiting to find the time to test out my new, “inexpensive home office equipment” I ordered many weeks ago, for green screen (chroma key) video, I have finally run a very rough draft experience, leveraging the following software and equipment (after researching and testing software and hardware solutions for better audio / voice narration recordings):
Although very interested and passionate about this technology and these possibilities, I have to suggest to myself and others to not go forward with attempts in establishing a “cheap home studio” (without proper information, professional consulting and knowing what you want and must do) unless you have the room and are better equipped with “professional equipment” and the time, effort and cash to invest.
TechSmith Camtasia Studio is brilliant (even with a cheap piece of fabric or filming in front of a colored wall – a color you’re not wearing or holding / displaying) but, try to only do these activities in a more professional setting with professional equipment you do not need to unpack, setup, pack away again (if not, then of course you can get by with patience and less investment) – “ain’t nobody got time for that”.
As explained from “Remove a Color (Green Screen)” and “How to create a DIY green screen video effect (aka chroma key)”, you need to work with the editing options to achieve the best results – it always is dependent on what you’re recording, in front of what and what your later usage e.g. background will be (Visual Effects: Remove a Color – Tolerance, Softness, Hue and Defringe); here is my very first, on-the-fly example, seen from the embedded video below (with commentary).

Si usted está buscando establecer un futuro profesional como freelancer, en el área de desarrollo de Rapid eLearning (además de otras áreas de trabajo), necesitará una carpeta con ejemplos de su trabajo realizado. Tales ejemplos son siempre más verosímiles cuando se han desarrollado para un propósito específico y para el beneficio de una empresa pequeña o grande, persona, asociación, etc.
Comenzando inmediatamente, estoy ofreciendo envases gratuitos de Rapid eLearning* para sus presentaciones / contenidos (dentro de lo razonable, por supuesto) – Articulate Presenter, Engage y Quizmaker son las herramientas de autor que estaremos utilizando. El contenido puede ser fácilmente alojado en su servidor, o entregado a través de CD-R. Estoy buscando clientes** que me permitan legalmente el uso actual y futuro de los contenidos que publico, a modo de ejemplo (el alojamiento de éstos ejemplos será en mi propio servidor y sitios).
Póngase en contacto conmigo por correo electrónico si usted está interesado o si tiene preguntas. Muchas Gracias.
* Oferta válida hasta el 30 de Junio 2014.
** Pequeña o mediana empresa, Profesores, Institutos educativos, asociaciones, etc.

Wenn man es vor hat sich selbständig zu machen im Bereich Rapid eLearning Entwicklung u.a., braucht man ein Portfolio voller Beispiele. Solche Beispiele sind natürlich immer tatkräftiger wenn sie „echt“ sind bzw. wenn sie für bestimmte Zwecke einer Firma, Person, Verein oder ähnliches gedient haben.
Deshalb gibt es ab sofort, von mir direkt, eine kostenlose Dienstleistung* Ihre Rapid eLearning Präsentationen bzw. Inhalte zu publizieren (in Maßen versteht sich) – Articulate Presenter, Engage und Quizmaker werden genutzt. Die Inhalte können auf Ihrem eigenen Server aufbewahrt oder sogar auf CD-ROM gebrannt werden. Ich suche Kunden** die es mir dann erlauben manche diese Inhalte selber auf meinem eigenen Server aufbewahren zu dürfen und sie als Beispiele (von meinem Portfolio) jetzt und in Zukunft zu gebrauchen.
Kontaktieren Sie mich per eMail wenn Sie Interesse (auch Fragen) haben. Danke schön!
* dieses Angebot gilt derzeit bis zum 30. Juni 2014
** kleine oder große Firmen, Professoren, Bildungseinrichtungen, Vereine, u.a.

If and when you’re looking into establishing a professional future as freelancer, in the area of Rapid eLearning development (in addition to other areas of work), you need a portfolio with examples of your work performed. Such examples are always more credible when they have been developed for a specific purpose and benefit of a small or large company, person, association, etc.
Beginning immediately, I am offering free Rapid eLearning packaging and publishing services* for your presentations / content (within reason of course) – Articulate Presenter, Engage and Quizmaker are the authoring tools I will be using. Content can easily be hosted within your server or delivered via CD-R. I’m looking for clients** that will legally allow me the current and future usage of some content I publish, for portfolio-related example purposes (hosting these from my own server and sites).
Contact me via eMail if you’re interested and/or have any questions. Thank you!
* This offer is currently valid until the 30th of June, 2014
** Small or large companies, professors, schools, associations, etc.

Yep, I’m a “happy camper” today! Not only do I own Studio ’13 now (in addition to Storyline) but, I have also had time to update all of my past content, previously published with Studio ’09. This post does not list out all detailed differences, comparing both, Studio ’09 vs. Studio ’13 however, it does provide links to content I have updated for you to compare on your own (the left image launches the Studio ’13 example, the right image launches the Studio ’09 example). In addition to my high-level overview here, check-out “What’s New in Articulate Studio ’13”.
NOTE: The Studio ’13 examples can be downloaded and viewed on your iPad with the Articulate Mobile Player.
