Wondershare DemoCreator Review: All-in-one Screen Recorder and Video Editor Software

Explore the features of Wondershare DemoCreator – an all-in-one Screen Recorder and Video Editor through this tutorial:

If reality hadn’t hit us on the head before, it certainly has after the novel Coronavirus pandemic, which has forced a major chunk of our industries into resorting to virtual technology in order to continue executing their daily operations.

All of a sudden, webcams became far more important and crucial for businesses to thrive in a time as unprecedented as this. Everything, from school lessons to office meetings, is now happening in the virtual space, thanks to the many online applications that enabled this luxury.

Private businesses and government institutions have found new respect and appreciation for virtual technology, and if current trends are to be believed, we can expect this advanced software and tools to become the new normal as we move into the new year.

There were many tools and web applications that stepped up to the game, allowing many users to take their crucial office meetings, academic courses, and presentations online via online video chat and conference applications. There were typical ones, like Zoom and Skype, that really helped many individuals run their businesses smoothly while a pandemic wreaked havoc on the civilized world.

However, there is one tool that shined exceptionally bright amidst a crowd of similarly powered software, most importantly because of its robust and spectacular screen recording feature. It re-emphasized how important it was to capture everything happening on your screen.

Screen recording helps you to record your online conversations, courses, and office meetings, which can be later used as fundamental demonstrations, memorandums, and tutorials to increase the productivity of your students or office staff. Not only that, but you may also want to enhance the quality of your captured video, add subtitles, adjust audio, or drown out any unwanted background noise and trim it to be more concise.

Well, Wondershare DemoCreator does all of this, and more with the help of its dynamic and advanced recording/editing features.

What is Wondershare DemoCreator

DemoCreator is an incredibly powerful software that works prominently as a screen recording tool. As such, it allows you to quite easily record everything that is happening on your screen in real-time.

Specifications

It is one of those tools that are extremely fruitful for YouTubers, Twitch Streamers, and gamers who like to share their gaming and tutorial content online with their followers. It is also fundamental in recording daily office meetings and presentations for future references.

One of the ways by which Wondershare DemoCreator makes the function of screen recording uniquely intuitive is by employing the real-time screen drawing and mouse spotlight feature. These features combined, make the process of capturing system sound, microphone, and webcam content relatively simple and more personalized.

Of course, there are many screen recorders out there that offer what DemoCreator delivers. However, it edges out its competition by also packaging its screen recording software with a phenomenally intuitive video and audio editor that possesses the ability to transform even the blandest videos into a thing of beauty.

Powered with advanced features like ‘audio fade in and fade out’, and populated with a vast gallery of green-screen effects, transitions effects, annotations, and stickers, DemoCreator may very well be a noteworthy video editor rather than solely being known for its screen recording ability.

Wondershare DemoCreator Features

Wondershare DemoCreator is quite rich in the features it offers to all of its users. From ostensibly futile to incredibly imperative, here are all the features you can benefit from, with DemoCreator:

#1) Screen Recording

Screen Recording is what DemoCreator positions itself as and is widely known for in the online space. In fact, this is the first thing that greets you when you open the tool on your device, with a large red button inviting you to press the record button.

You simply have to click the record button and the tool will automatically start capturing your screen based on your preset or manually carved out aspect ratio.

#2) Real-Time Screen Drawing

Wondershare DemoCreator hits it out of the park by allowing users to highlight their content, write on the screen or draw lines, arrows, and other symbols while the screen is being recorded by the tool. This is a brilliant feature, especially for creating tutorials or instructional videos. Using the real-time screen drawing feature is also very simple.

Enable the screen drawing mode before clicking the record button. You will automatically be presented with a toolbar that allows you to choose your preferred cursor and color to write and draw on your simultaneously-recording screen.

#3) Webcam Capture

DemoCreator allows users to capture their faces via the webcam while simultaneously recording whatever is happening on their device screen. This feature is especially useful for online gamers, video commentators, and teachers who want to expose themselves along with the content they are in charge of presenting to their audience.

#4) Microphone Sound Capture

Some users like to involve themselves in the screen-recorded presentation without showing their faces. Wondershare DemoCreator can capture pristine audio directly from a microphone to serve this very same purpose. It also keeps the recorded audio separate from the captured screen to better edit them further in the process. You can easily mix, blend and separate audio later in DemoCreator’s video editor.

#5) Audio Fade In And Audio Fade Out

This feature is extremely important to edit audios and forms an integral part of an overall audio engineering experience. The feature allows you to gradually raise the volume of your audio from silence with Fade-In and similarly helps you gradually reduce the volume of your audio to complete silence with Fade-Out.

#6) Fast Export Without Editing

The Fast Export is a fantastic feature for users who are satisfied with their recorded screen alone and don’t want to spend any unnecessary time editing the video in DemoCreator’s editing tool. To enable Fast Export, simply right-click the recorded video available in the library and select the Fast Export tab.

Once selected, you can add a title to your clip and choose your desired ‘saved path’ on the device. The clip will be exported to that destination in no time.

#7) Annotation

Annotations are of great importance, especially when you are creating a tutorial or demonstration video. As this is usually the norm with screen recording tools, DemoCreator comes with quite a competent annotation feature that allows you to add quick dialog and text at any point in time in your video’s timeline.

You can also add graphs, drawings, bubbles, arrows, blur effects, and banners in various unique styles.

#8) Add Green Screen Effects

Green Screens are a great way to create dynamic, visually fantastical backgrounds for your videos. DemoCreator has one of the simplest functions when it comes to applying a green screen effect to your video’s background. It simply requires you to import both your green screen recorded footage, and the background screen that you would like to implement into its library.

Drag both the files into the Video editor’s timeline, and drag the green screen effect from DemoCreator’s library section to the timeline. Then you can remove the green or other color background by selecting the color you want to remove.

A properties window will open on the right-hand side of your screen, wherein you can implement the effect while also refining the video with tools like offset, tolerance, edge thickness, and edge feather.

#9) Add Transitions

No video editor is complete without transition effects to enhance your video’s visual appeal. Thankfully, DemoCreator has a plethora of transition effects to choose from. You can select any effect from the left-hand side of your tool and add it to the timeline where you want the transition effect to take place. It’s that simple.

#10) Add Captions

This feature is imperative when trying to give your video a more theatrical effect. You can add a title card at the beginning of your video, or add end credits with readymade caption templates available in DemoCreator’s vast library. Simply select the one you like and add it to the timeline where you want the caption to appear.

You also have the ability to change the font, and size of the text you enter in these captions.

How To Record Screen Using DemoCreator

Screen Recording on DemoCreator is very simple, with the interface itself acting as your guide along the way. To begin recording, click on the large Red capture icon, which greets you as soon as you open the tool.

Once selected, the tool asks you to establish certain settings that will become fundamental to your end result. You have the option to choose whether you want to record ‘Full Screen, a specific part of your screen, or a ‘target window’.

You can later also choose the frame rate ranging from 15 fps to 120 fps as per your preference. Apart from this, you also have the option to select whether you want to record yourself via your device’s webcam. The resolution and the frame rate of this camera are also customizable.

Then you also get to choose whether you want to record both the system and microphone audio or just one of them. You can simply let this one be if you want to record both audios by default.

Enable Real-Time Screen Drawing (Optional)

Just below your settings, you will also see the option to enable screen drawing. Switching this on will provide you with a toolbar that allows you to draw and write on the screen while the recording is still on. You can also add arrows and lines to your screen as it is being recorded.

Recording Process

Once you have your settings in place, you can start recording by clicking on the capture button. The recorder will count down to 3 seconds before beginning the record. Thanks to the mouse spotlight feature, you can also drag the corners around your screen to capture the perfect shot on your screen.

You also get a magnifier that helps capture the edges of your screen with utmost precision. Alternatively, you also have the option to choose a preset aspect ratio in the initial settings window.

Once you have finished recording, simply press the ‘Stop’ button and your captured video will be automatically imported to the editing tool.

How To Edit Videos Using Wondershare DemoCreator

DemoCreator could easily pass off as a full-fledged video editor, considering it comes jam-packed with everything you need to execute the video editing process. The editing window mimics the interface commonly found in most video editing tools.

It has a library section on the left-hand side, which harbors your media file, with all the features like effects, stickers, captions, and transitions that will help you enhance your video quality. The features are presented in a vertical fashion, with each and every tool easily accessible from here with just one click.

Then there is the timeline where the actual editing will happen. Here you can edit, trim, and merge your clips as well as add transitions, audio, and other effects. You can also move the video and audio footage across this timeline to seamlessly blend its various expectations for a satisfying end result.

Finally, there is the preview window from which you can check the results of your editing as the process progresses. You can directly add stickers and annotation here as well to save time.

Trim, Split, And Cutting Video

To trim a video, move towards the end or front of the video on the timeline and drag it across until you have the desired result.

To cut a video, right-click the part of the video you want to remove and select ‘cut’ from the top. Just like that, the chosen part will be removed.

Splitting, on the other hand, requires you to place the yellow slider on the timeline from where you want to split the video. This will effectively split the video into two parts.

Resize Video

If you want to change the size of the video, simply go to the transform section in the setting and use the scale toggle. You can adjust the percentage here to get your desired video size.

Adding Effects

Adding effects to your footage through DemoCreator is probably the easiest thing you will ever do. If you want to add a transition effect to your footage, simply select the transition icon on the left-hand side of your screen, select the type of transition effect you like, and add it directly at any point in the timeline to create the effect.

Similarly, you can also select stickers, captions, and annotations from the left-hand panel and add them directly into the timeline where you want the effect to take place.

Editing Audio

To edit audio, simply click on the audio clip in the timeline. This will open a properties section on the right of the preview window. From here you can adjust the volume, denoise the clip to make it sound more audible, increase or decrease audio speed or simply mute it.

You can further edit the audio by right-clicking the audio clip and selecting the ‘edit audio’ tab. Once selected, a palm-like symbol will appear on your selected audio. You can use this symbol to drag your audio volume up and down, while also pushing it in from the left to create the Audio Fade-in effect, and push it inside from the right to create the Fade-out effect.

Price

Users can avail DemoCreator for free with the added caveat of a watermark being attached to every video you export from it. However, the tool also offers a flexible pricing plan, which in our opinion is worth every penny you shill out at its alter.

You can get the tool for a Monthly plan of only $6.99, an Annual plan of $23.99, and a Lifetime plan of only $44.99.

Conclusion

DemoCreator is one of a kind when it comes to a screen recording tool. It will undoubtedly capture your videos with ease but is also proactive enough to offer you the opportunity to enhance your captured video with a smart and powerful editing tool.

Its fast and smart performance is complimented quite spectacularly by a clean and comprehensive interface that provides everything one might need to go on an editing endeavor. Its real-time screen drawing feature makes it a useful tool for content creators and online tutors who engage in offering tutorials and instructional videos.

You can get DemoCreator for free now, but can also enjoy a watermark-free version by paying a very reasonable and affordable monthly fee of $6.99 only. It is one of the best screen recording tools available for content creators today, and as such, has our highest recommendation, especially for online gamers and tutors.
