Best Of

If you have a high resolution monitor, zoom in your browser a bit, and make your cursor a bit bigger.
People watching your video are not seeing it at the same size as you.

No tips, just enthusiastic encouragement from my side! I always love to see some workflows tips/tricks from other advanced Onshape users! Would also love to see some of your more advanced surfacing models or tips/tricks explained if you ever get to it…
I saw your post in the thread about solidworks vs onshape surfacing and was impressed!

If you ever stray to the dark side that is a windows PC I found OBS Studio a useful free bit of software. Available from portable apps.com

I see Alins has already suggested that!

• While I haven't recorded a CAD YouTube video in a while, my advice would be:

• Sound quality is important. The built in mic on MacBooks is great, but on other platforms, you might want to use a cheap USB mic and normalize the speaking audio track volume (audacity does a good job).
• If you do add background music, it should be quieter than you think (in my experience, at least 20 decibels quieter than the speaking track, depending on the style and situation), and make sure you have the right to use it! (The YouTube music library in the creator studio is a great resource).
• Fancy editing is rarely worth it...with the exception of a few videos, the reception of the videos I made was generally inversely correlated with the effort-per-minute-of-editing I put in. The ones where I just hit record, did stuff, and posted (with low/no editing) did well and people found them helpful. And it is generally easier to follow something in human time, rather than something with lots of cuts and tight pacing (generally the "highly edited" videos resulted in a lot more comments and emails asking for help because something was unclear or jumped over too quickly)
• If you do want to edit something to a higher degree of production quality, it is much easier to cut out sections of a long take/video than it is to stitch together multiple shorter takes/video files. Same goes for podcasts/audio, even/especially with a script. If you biff something, just undo a few steps, take a breath, and continue from the start of some recent "paragraph" so to speak. Then, when editing, you can split the clip before and after the section you want to cut, and delete the middle part.
• On Linux, I used Kdenlive for much of my editing needs and OBS for screen recording. Now on my Mac, I've found iMovie to be perfectly capable for general cutting and editing, and the built-in screen recorder is great for capturing screen casts (as long as you don't need an "action camera" for the CAD user 😄)
• You can zoom in the browser to make the UI bigger without having to go to a lower video resolution. Note that video streaming platforms (well, YouTube at least) tend to apply crunchy compression to lower resolution screencasts, which can make text hard to read and cause other artifacts. So I definitely recommend recording and uploading at least at 1080p.

Looking forward to seeing what you make!

because when it`s in non perspective view, it is as if you were always looking from a camera orbiting the object, and when you zoon in, you just increase the size of the object, you don`t actually get closer to it. The camera is at an infinite distance of the object, so all parallel lines are always parallel.

That's the plan. I'm busy working on a very powerful plastic boss custom feature, and it seems like a video intro is probably in order. I also want to do similar intros for some other features I've been working on.
