PowerPoint animations

Hi guys today i going to share few concepts about how to add animation to PowerPoint presentations.
You can control how objects move on your PowerPoint slides. In this tutorial I explain how to make effect transitions from one slide to the next and make object animations.
In PowerPoint you can to create the following types of animations.
  • Emphasis effect does something to draw attention to an object slide.
  • Entrance animation control the way in which an object appears onto a slide.
  • Exit animation allows us control which an object leaves a slide.
  • Motion path control how the object moves around a slide.
If you add an animation, you can modify properties on the custom animation pane. The animation pane has many options available.

Add music powerpoint

Adding music to a PowerPoint presentation is a easy question If you follow these instructions.
You need to have ready your music in either of two formats Mp3 of wav.
what is the difference between mp3 and wav?
Mainly is the size, mp3 is smaller file size but cannot embedded in PowerPoint presentation and Wav larger size but can be embedded in presentation. There is also a software called WaveMP3 is a little program that will convert "Normal" MP3's into MP3's with the .wav extension so they can be used by programs that don't support the MP3-format, but do support sound-files in the Windows Wave-format. The advantage of this process is that allows PowerPoint presentations of smaller size which may be attached to emails or copy to distribute to others. Is easy to use and free, not install needed. Clik on the link to download Download WaveMP3 v2.3 here (40.8kB) .
If you use mp3 “normal”, you will need copy both your presentation and your mp3 file to distribute. Click on the images to enlarge it.

Automatically – Your music will start when the previous action is complete, such as a transition from the previous slide .
When Clicked – Your music will begin if you click on the speaker icon that appears on the slide. You must click exactly on the speaker icon for the music to play. If you click on another part of the slide , the presentation will advance to the next action.

After this, an icon of a speaker will appear in the middle of your slide. You are allowed to move the icon to any location you desired on the slide.
The process are completed. The music would only play for the single slide.

    • Have a combo to select play automatically, across a specific number of slides or on click
 
 powerpoint_music07  
  • maximum size of the sound file that can play . For default 100 kb but you can set this value to the size of your music file, up to a maximum of 50 mb.
