Advanced animations in PowerPoint: 18 inspiring walkthroughs

18 easy to follow animation walkthroughs to show you how to quickly apply animation techniques to your slides

Good animation can be a wonderful tool to enhance the clarity of your message!

This course contains 18 walkthrough PowerPoint animation examples. Each one will provide you with understanding of a key animation feature that can be used to take your slide design to the next level.

All of the examples are included for download.

Some of the default animations used in PowerPoint can be worse than having no animation at all, but using animation that supports the content can bring your slides to life and engage your audience.

Here is what will be covered in the course:

1. Using the powerful morph transition to create a roller counter

2. Creating an animated custom chart using motion paths

3. Creating a looping light animation including output to video

4. Adding multiple animations on individual letters to create a sketch style text effect

5. Learn how to create your own custom transitions

6. Using custom motion paths and varied animation speeds to create a natural looking snowfall effect

7. Using the spin animation with repeat option to create an animated clock

8. Bring your slides to life using video in the background while animating text over the top

9. Creating an interactive menu using animated 3D models

10. Making an image mask to add depth to any design

11. Using the morph transition to create and animate a 3D rotating tablet

12. Using the draw tools and ink replay to create text that looks as if it is drawing out

13. Investigating 3D text with the morph transition to animate it with any rotation and colour

14. Making video style spinning effects by using different shapes and applying multiple animations to them

15. Creating an impressive motion design text effect

16. Drawing abstract lines using a 3D bevel and fluid animation

17. Making fun, falling, rotating and bouncing shapes using motion paths and the smoothing settings

18. Creating an interactive vertically scrolling presentation that animates between every page

    
    

By the end of this course you will be able to apply the skills learnt to create animations that you would have previously thought impossible in PowerPoint.

I hope you enjoy the class and please get in touch if you have any questions or suggestions.
