anyway of marking text with electronic pen?

This a bit unusual, however, I am planning on making some YouTube and presentation type exegetical videos that feature me in one half of the screen and accordance opened to a bible chapter on the other as a moving screen capture. I was hoping to be able to mark the text with the bamboo tablet and pen that I have to aid the presentation. All I have managed to do so far is highlight or underline the text but so far no ability to actually draw freehand. Can this be achieved?

 

thanks

You would need an app that places an invisible drawing layer in real time over the app (e.g., Panic's Desktastic), or you might consider strategically taking static window captures (cmd-shift-4, space bar, choose window/interface element, click) that you would doodle over in a drawing program window (try Plasq's Skitch) for those segments (of course you would lose the live interaction of the cursor with resources, but it might work if you just need to draw boxes and squiggles).

 

Let us know how it goes!

okay great. I was thinking along the same lines but I had no idea where to find those kind of programs. Thanks for the links.
