Qumu Quick Capture Brings New Power to Employee Generated Video Content

With just a web browser, employees can Create, Edit and Publish video presentations quickly and easily.

STREAMING MEDIA WEST CONFERENCE, Los Angeles, Booth #8 - November 8, 2011 – Qumu, Inc., www.qumu.com, the leading provider of enterprise video solutions, today announced the release of Qumu Quick Capture, a web-based screen capture and video creation tool with a simple interface that allows users to create rich media presentations.

Quick Capture is an add-on component to the Qumu Video Control Center that synchronizes audio and video with screen recording of anything on the user’s desktop.  Just record a product demo, sales presentation or project update, edit as needed, and publish online.

Quick Capture not only records all screens, it can simultaneously capture video from a webcam or PC camera so you can see the screen images and the presenter at the same time. It also provides instruction arrows or callouts that can be inserted after you finish, providing added ease-of-use for viewers.  Quick Capture automatically uploads the finished presentation to the Qumu Video Control Center where it can be shared easily with others. Published content can also be protected for viewing only by assigned users.

“The release of Qumu Quick Capture greatly enhances our Social Video capabilities as it enables employees to quickly and easily create compelling video presentations,” said Ray Hood, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Qumu. “With more and more of our customers allowing employees to create and submit their own videos, Quick Capture provides a simple, yet robust tool for creating and sharing Employee Generated Content.”
