Hi Makers, the next big thing Video creators think apart from ‘How to create a video’ is ‘How to make my video engaging’. Believe me, it doesn’t matter the number of hours you put into creating a video, if it is not engaging enough the efforts go in vain. 

One of the ways to make your Animaker videos engaging and effective is by adding screen recordings to them. 

With screen recordings, you can convey the message better, show variety in the visuals and allow the viewers to engage better with the video. 

With this in mind, we have introduced Vmaker - an easy on the go screen and webcam recording tool for you.
