Hi everyone, I wasn't sure where to post this question, so I hope here is okay.

I was thinking it would be fun to make a video tutorial and post it in the section here at Renderosity, but I've never done that before and am not sure where to start. Can anyone suggest any free software I might need, or just generally point me in the right direction?

Yes Camstudio . The files tend to be very large in my experiance but it does a great job. If you are recording voice a headset microphone is nice to have.

Use VirtualDub to compress raw video file, it can compress 1GB file to 20MB without loosing any quality :)

Useful to know, I havent really tried playing with codecs , just happy to get it recording , and that was fairly painless .

Yeah, I know what you mean. At first trys my hand was shaking like crazy lol, then after few trys you get comfortable with it. There is great tut on Camstudio site about using the codecs :)

Camstudio is pretty good. I used a commercial version of it to create the sample videos here: http://www.screen-capture-video.com (I don't own the site, but I was hired for the application's interface overhaul and created the sample videos, including the audio.)

You might also find Fraps useful (and free). And if you need intro/outro music, I have some freebies on my site. :)
