Programming skills are not needed. The StarCast Recorder is intuitive to use, and with a little practice, you’ll be developing animated content that looks and sounds like it came from a professional studio. The Recorder uses Microsoft PowerPoint as its platform, which is important for several reasons:

• Most business people are familiar with PowerPoint and are comfortable using it to make presentations.

• Most companies already have libraries of PowerPoint files developed for live training courses, in-house meetings and sales presentations, which can be quickly and easily uploaded to StarCast making the transition to Web training fast and straightforward.

• PowerPoint is a sophisticated authoring tool in its own right, allowing the use of complex animations, paths, linked slides, backgrounds, and many more high-end design features, which will make your StarCast courses come alive for viewers.
