The ability to create and share videos has been a game-changer for remote sales teams all over the globe. Video pros recommend using keyboard shortcuts, sometimes known as hotkeys to increase flow and efficiency.
When doing a screen share recording, viewers and creators may feel the slow-down caused by using a mouse or trackpad to complete actions within the recording of the video. Starting and stopping recordings, turning the camera on and off, and even re-sizing the video player can slightly delay your message. Keyboard shortcuts help by offering a myriad of options that can be typed rather than clicked for ease of filming.
