TechSmith Camtasia 2022: The Freeze Region Effect

During a recent TechSmith Camtasia vILT class, a student asked if it was possible to remove alert messages that always seemed to appear when she was recording her screen. She felt that the pop-ups were, at best, distracting for her learners or, worse, ruined her screen recordings.

I've found the Freeze Region Effect in Camtasia 2022 to be one of the best Camtasia features… ever… period!

  1. On the Timeline, position the playhead just before the distraction you'd like to cover.
  2. Select the media.
  3. From the Visual Effects area, right-click the Freeze Region Effect and choose Add to selected media.

  4. On the Canvas, resize and reposition the Freeze Region so that it covers the distraction.
  5. On the Timeline, change the starting and ending point of the Freeze Region.

You're done! Sounds too simple, right? Check out this video and see for yourself how easy to use the Freeze Region effect!
