Short One Month Summary
My month with Captivate began while working on e-learning content. My contract required that I use Captivate, and I had used it somewhat in the past. However, my goal was to become as proficient as I was with PowerPoint. I found that initially, it was a steep learning curve to use the advanced features. I also struggled with finding why Captivate was better than other tools. That was until I had to record and add video/audio to the slides. This situation is where Captivate outshines the rest. The adobe community was also beneficial in answering most of my questions. My only concern was the memory on my computer, but with Captivate, I felt like a full-fledge recording studio. I still prefer building on other tools and then bringing that design into Captivate when I’m ready to develop.
