Tool for making a video tutorial? [closed]

Question

I'd like to make a video tutorial for my SDK--one of those videos that shows the screen while some dude talks about what he's doing. Can someone direct me to easy and preferably free tools for doing so?

Desired features: - Cuts (recording several snippets of video and putting them together afterward) - Subtitles (not only for user convenience but because I'd rather not disturb the other cubicles by talking in a microphone at work :))

(who doesn't like video tutorials?)

Update: I'm using Windows.

Answer 1

Camtasia is very good. I've also used wink, it is flash instead of video, but you can add navigation controls and text boxes.

Answer 2

Jing. Free, very easy to use, Windows version requires .NET 3.0 framework. Also, there is Mac version available.

Answer 3

a cool tool for screencasting is Camtasia Studio http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.asp with a free 30 day trial
