    best method to record painting process? (osx)

    I want to record my drawing process, from start to finish in painter. A long long time ago, i had an art program which came with a wacom tablet (cant remember the name for the life of me, it had a painted parrot on the cover though) that recorded each brush stroke and would let you draw an entire piece then hit rewind/play to watch yourself draw it from start to finish.


    At the moment i am trying to find something like this for painter now. I've run into snags though, i picked up Snapz pro and found it works horribly because my screen is too big! (1680x1050 17in widescreen) and even tossing down the recording details, i end up with a massive file. Considering i want to record a long film i need something more streamlined right off the bat so i don't end up with a 100gig file.

    Is there anything in painter that can record my strokes, or something that i can use to record myself drawing, that is of a respectable quality?

    Hey Blue... I have tried using "scripts" in Painter a few times, but for the life of me I can't get the scripts turned into a decent movie file.

    Look in your tool bar, under Windows, click on "show scripts". And go to the Help option to learn how to use scripts recording. This may satisfy your needs.
