Consider adding a caption below the image for additional context and information.

If needed, use screenshot annotations to further contextualize visual elements.

Do not use retina sizes as screenshots look fine at 1x (ratio of image size to intended display size is 1:1).

Only capture the part of the screen that is necessary.

Nice workflow, great screenshot annotations (also does basic GIF and video recordings) Here is a brief overview of screenshot tools:

Sourcegraph always encourages you to purchase the software you need to be successful, and this certainly applies to screenshots and screen recordings. Whether you need a dedicated screenshot application or not depends on how often you plan to contribute visual content, and if you need things like annotations. If you really think your video needs one, ask for help in the #marketing channel (and cite this handbook section and explain why you need one). It adds a large burden of maintenance that we don’t want to take on. So, they’d all need to have the same layout, tone/voice of copy, timing, etc. All title slides that we’re currently showing on our site should be the same, if we are showing title slides. Title slides delay the “time to a wow moment”.This means wasted time (since we don’t perceive a benefit to a title slide) and, on the margin, it means that our videos will be older, more stale, and more mediocre (more cooks in the kitchen). It takes a lot of work, and involves other people, to get it right.Developers already love watching videos of other developers showing things off. They make the video seem less authentic, which makes it less compelling.Title slides are slides at the start of your video that have a Sourcegraph logo, a background, a title (like “Batch Changes demo”), and maybe a nice visual effect. Add ScreenFlow to your list if you plan on doing videos frequently, as you will appreciate editing and clip speed-up capabilities.Choose Cleanshot if just doing screenshots and GIF-like videos.If you’re producing visual content regularly, invest in paid apps (you can expense them too):.

If doing a full-screen recording, 1280x720 (720p) will produce easy to read results at default settings.

Keep GIF-like videos and images as small as possible with no retina sizes (ratio of image size to intended display size is 1:1).

GIF-like videos are typically great for short “check this out” recordings, where videos are better at “how-to” or promotional style content.

Only use GIFs where this is not possible, e.g. Record a GIF-like video and embed it in a way that it behaves like a GIF.

Keep GIF-like videos 15 seconds or less.

Favor capturing only the part of the screen that’s required.
