Best way to capture computer action shots?

[Wit]

I'm working on a new project. It's for an organization who uses internet platforms for interaction around their product. So my promotional film for them will include some of this interaction on screen. 

 

- What is the best way to do it?

- Using a Screen Recorder? If so which one is good on a Mac and using with MOV footage?

- Anny useful tips around these kind of shots?

 

Thank you so much!

Definitely a screen recorder. In another life I used one to do in-house training videos for a sales force.

 

I'm not sure what's good for the Mac though. Sorry I can't be of more help here.

 

Not a lot to say, but if you're going to record mouse cursor as well do rehearse your mouse movements. :P
