1. Introduction: Today, the content in PowerPoint Serbs way more purposes than just presenting and showing something. In this course, you will complete a project step-by-step with my guidance. Throughout this process, you will develop practical skills that you can use for work, business studies, any project that requires visual illustration digitally. My name is better on collision. I'm an e-learning designer. I designed digital learning experiences that users can enjoy during the learning process. I use PowerPoints on a daily basis, is one of my many tools for work. And I like to share my knowledge insights about it. Throughout this project, you will develop new skills like how to handle and create modern engaging content in PowerPoint. Also, how to work efficiently fast in PowerPoint to save valuable minutes and clicks. You will learn how to build up an interactive website like content in PowerPoint with clickable buttons from the start till the end. Check out my other class, modern zooming PowerPoint presentations within minutes. If you want to have a crash course about the creation process of such content. In this class, you will apply the same process. But in more details with more examples. During this project, everything is connected to everything starting from the background through the simple layouts, the fine movements, animations. It has incomplete storyline logic, which you will understand and learn if you follow all the steps I teach. I will see you in the first lesson. Let's get started. 2. Preview of the project: Here's starts to presentation. It's aimed to catch the attention with the nice one colored background, clearly referring to the milestones development process. We will show you the journey of this product lunch. We can talk about four main phases. We came up with the idea, full byte at testing, implementation and finally calculating the profit. Before this presentation content works also like a website. This is the homepage. The icons are menu icons. They will help us to navigate throughout the whole presentation. Watch how the zooming behaves a bit different. It always zoom stood the respective location of the progress of the story. In fact, how we go higher and higher. The dynamic nature of this presentation is that you can start wherever you want. If that makes sense, of course. Here it has a logical order, the beginning and the end. Interesting feature is that you can choose to zoom into the topic and zoom out to always keep the overview. But you can proceed directly after the end of the chapters like this. You get the picture now how the exact locations of these topics and the Morph transition support the flow of this content. Let's start with the idea. Here we start telling the story. There was an afterword drink with the colleagues, the real meeting after such a long disappointing struggle, it is always important to make it emotional. Emotions stick naturally in our memory. Here we explained the peak point of a struggle and the turning point when the team just had an idea, an idea that can turn everything around and finally find the solution success. Here's just one example how you can make the content emotional. Like saying, most of us have not seen our family before. 08:00 PM every single day. Huge sacrifice. Try to exaggerate, make it extreme. Watch how we progress inside a content. Still staying in the same chapter, but new page, new contents. We continue with the story. What was exactly the missing piece? The details are not important. The flow of the story, what matters? There was an ingredient which they did not consider yet. We made a complete turn as we replace the specific ingredient. Here it goes into more details. What is exactly the material ingredient? Always keep it simple, no matter how much content you have do to work and compress it into three short, both points. Remember, the bullet points cannot be content to read. Does to stamp professional. You speak and explain the bullet points. The bullet point is a simplified phrase, keyword, maximum one-sentence statement. Right-click next slide. After drinking evening, they had an online meeting about their conversation. They set up the following steps. How they can realize this new direction. And again, keep it short and simple only the point. How do you sum up the next steps? What is the conclusion of the online meeting? Information? 123. This pipe icon is a reminder that this is the end of the chapter. Now comes the next. The icon from the homepage is always the home button, which brings us back to the homepage. Let's see how the testing phase ones, again, a short but straightforward title that we found a real shortcut method to automate the core solution. Diving into this more detailed, it only took two weeks to reorganize the work processes. And that's how we ended up with new material. You can include more details following the layout rules. Keep the phone size and don't write more text than this. What was exactly the solution? What is the material? Remember that we are presenting a chemical products. So here's a microscope picture showing the test process. When you mentioned further details, do exactly as I've showed you before. Now comes a very cool effect. You click Next and Luke, we switched topics within the topic, written content goes to the left while the picture goes to the right. And this is an intention of focus shift saying like, hey, this is something very important. So please pay close attention. Have a closer look at the picture. How it zooms closer to the specific part on the same picture, while it animates to the right side. Here's a notification again that the slideshow of this chapter is over. I click on the Home button to zoom back to the overview. We continue our journey as we make progress and go one level higher to the implementation part. You explain how it changed the game and a short summary of the results. There was a sign again that we have to click through the home button again. In this final chapter, we explain what were the exact numbers of the result. Either a financial chart or a product specific summary would do it. The approval of this product launch and was granted. And this is the end of this success story. A little joke for the end. The only one question we had to answer, where do we party? The end? Here, you either zoom out or leave the screen right here. 3. How to work with the project file?: This project is going to require more work and more manual steps. The first step is that you have to get familiar with the PowerPoint work file, download it. Once you open a file, you can see that I prepared some slides for you. Colors. Just for demonstration, I insert a shape. The colors are the same. This is the main accent color. And all the rest are combinations that harmonize well with each other. It's important because you will see how we base on these colors in the next projects font. You see the original template. We have Roboto condensed and Roboto regular. I'm only going to use the robot to body. If you don't have Roboto and your computer, you may use similar font. You can also just almost eat or simply Calibri font as well. The master slide view is still the same, but we will use it in a different way. Shortly. We will mostly copy paste the existing layouts, namely D's two down here. It is a bit more extra work, but you will see why we need this for these cool effects. But no worries, I prepared everything for you. These are all the source slides that you will need and super simple. Here are the icons, the header slide, once you zoom in the origin background picture, the content slides. The wearable written content once on the left, then on the right. The same for two pictures. Within the written layout, only the header, one sub-header, one paragraph as a body texts, or sometimes three bullet points. As you have seen, that simple animations, the objects that relate to specific animations you already see there to build in animations. This brings us to the navigation pane where you will gain new skills handling this little window here. The navigation pane will have a crucially important role in this project. It's critical to name most of the objects and their respective names have always a specific purpose. All these will save you a massive amount of working minutes. You can already think before debt. Now let's continue with the background picture. 4. Create the home page and the subpages : Open up your project file. Remember, I used the phrases website, homepage, sub page for a very simple reason because that's exactly what we are doing. Building a website like presentation, we'd zooming features. Technically, it's a PowerPoint presentation, but we will function just as a website. Once it's ready. Let's set up sections for these pages. Go right above the backup section and click new section and name it. Overview. Right after. Do the same and create four more sections for topic 1234. Move your cursor between the overview and topic one section. Click there, and once you see the line in-between, hit Enter. Now right-click on this slide here, go to layout and click on Blank. Don't forget to delete this little text box here. Scroll down and go to this slide where you can find the background picture. I know it looks different. That's the original one that we will make it look even better. Click on the picture and hit the Control C buttons. Scroll back to the overview and hit Control V. Alright, now, right-click on the picture and go to form a picture. Go to the fourth step, picture color. Down here, you find a drop-down for recolor. Click on it, and here you find many variations, options for recoloring the whole picture. This is actually already Photoshop work, but PowerPoint has the built-in feature so you can recolor the pictures by just one-click. How cool is that? Remember the template colors. Powerpoint automatically sets up these color combinations based on the template colors. It will perfectly fit to our overall design. Go here and click on this color. This is the x and one color in a darker version. Nice. This picture contains now only one color from the design set. This move only will create unconsciously to harmony in the human eye as it will stay consistent throughout the whole presentation. Now click on the slide here. Click control C buttons again. Based it to all other sections by clicking always Control V. Here we go. We are ready with the map of our website. In the next video, we will create the interactive buttons and the smooth zooming effects. 5. Prepare the buttons : Before we create the interactive buttons, we have to design them first. Let me show you what I mean. Scroll down to this slide and click on this slide here. On the first icon. When you click again, you'll notice that it's a group. The Morph transition works only if the item which we want to morph is only a single item. Therefore, we have to ungroup these nicely made icon groups. The problem is that you can't work with them if they are not grouped either. It's going to cause further complications. The solution is designed them as pictures. Here's how. First, select them all and move them a little bit down here. Duplicate this icon. Simply use Control C, control V. Now, click and hold Control and Shift buttons at the same time and enlarge it by clicking and dragging this edge here. This way it keeps the same proportions around this size. Click on Shape Format to see the exact size. Make sure it's a bit higher than 11 centimeter. It's important to prevent any pixellated picture at the end once we export this icon picture, That's why we do this. But the outline did not grow. That one we have to enlarge manually. Just click on the group. Click again. Now you selected the inner circle. Right-click and go to Format, Shape, open line, and go to width, and make it 6. Now you see the outline got thicker. Do the same exact process for 23 icons. Once you're ready, right-click on the icon and save as picture. I save it on my desktop in a folder I created for it. Do the same process for the other three. Now, open your folder where you saved the pictures and drag them into your slide. The next movies that you have to resize these pictures and replace the grouped icons with these. Click on the first grouped icon, then click on Shape Format. You see here that the height and length is 3.6 centimeter. Precisely. Select all the picture icons and goto picture format and simply rewrite the numbers 2.63 centimeter. Perfect. Now we only need to replace the grouped icons with these picture icons. For debt, you have to open the selection beam. By the way, we are going to use this a lot. So get familiar with it. Click and hold Control button. Why you click on the idea icons. Now go to home, arrange, align, align left. As you see, it's kind of way too much steps for a single move. Therefore, create a shortcut icon for depth in your Quick Access Toolbar. The Quick Access Toolbar is the line here. With these shortcut icons. This makes your life unbelievably easier when you work with PowerPoint. This is located above your ribbon by default like this. If you like, you can leave it there. I recommend to bring it down here below the ribbon. It supports your work much better and makes more sense when you want to work faster. As you see, I already have it here. You can simply add it by going to home. Arrange. Here, right-click on the icon and click on Add to Quick Access Toolbar. The new we'll have it here as well. Now, we can speed up the work process due to same aligning process for two or three other items, you will see how much faster it goes with the shortcut icon. One more step. Click and hold Control button. While you click on the picture icons one by one. Now, go to the selection pane and click on these icons that you can make them invisible. Now select all the group icons altogether. You can see them now how they are located here by the way. And simply delete them. Go back here and deselect these icons so that we make the picture icons visible again. There you have it. We just designed the buttons. In the next video, we will make these buttons interactive. 6. Make the buttons interactive / Part 1: This is the programming part. You don't code like a programmer, but technically you do the same since the end result is an interactive user interface. You program actions on the screen setting up conditions like if this happens, then this happens. Let's rename the icons in the selection pane as icon 1234. Select all of them and copy by Control C. Scroll up to the first slide and paste them by Control V. First, we create the entry animation for which we duplicate the slide. Before you either right-click on the slide and then click Duplicates Slide, or just simply click on the slide and click Control D buttons. It's faster. Go to the first slide and relocated the items in a diagonal line. Like this. Drag the text boxes down here and make sure that you move them in a way that the title and textbooks keep the same distance from each other. This will create a smooth, nice entry animation. Click on the next slide, go-to transitions, and click on Morph go-to duration and make it slightly faster. 1.75 seconds is fine. Test the transition by clicking on this little star icon next to the slide here. Nice, it works. Now located topics accordingly. We literally create the progress metaphor. You place the steps on this imaginative stairs step-by-step. Just like that 1234. Here we have to create additional circles. Make sure it's perfect. Circle, click and hold Shift button while you click and hold the left mouse button and move it diagonally like this. Now, click on the picture to recall the exact size again, you see it's 3.6 centimeter. Click on the circle and go to Shape Format and adjust the size as of 3.7 centimeter, both the height and Blanche. To make it slightly bigger. Duplicate the circle shape three times. Or click control C once, then three times Control V. Place the circles accordingly in front of the icon pictures. Click on the first one and type with your keyboard. T1. Do the same for the other three as D2, D3, and D4 at the end. Go to the selection paint again. You can reopen it on this step. If you closed it already, then just open it again in home. Arrange, then selection pane. Now we will have to create a little organization here, and that's how we will continue in the next video. 7. Make the buttons interactive / Part 2: Being well-organized pays off in life. Heredity being messy brings way more trouble. Let's prevent that. In general, it's a principle that you name, label the object in a structured way, especially when you work with many objects. Let's clean up here to later, you will need to well-organized selection being to have a clear overview. Click on T1, then go-to selection pane and rename it there as of topic one. Do the same for the three other circles. But be careful here. If you mistakenly renamed in the wrong object, It's going to cause you three times more work to fix it later. T2, t2, t3 as topic three, then T4 as topic for. Alright. Now rearrange them in order so that it starts from the top as topic 1234. Just drag and drop them like this. Now comes the most important part, the so-to-speak coding. Click on T1, go to Insert action. Click on hyperlinked to. Then on slide. Make sure to click on slide three. Always double-check if you click the right slide number. But it's easy to follow. Just check on the left side. You clearly see that the slide for topic one is slide number three. Do the same for the outer shapes. Click on T2, insert action hyperlinked to slide. Slide number four. The same for the next one. Click on T3, insert a hyperlink to slide, slide number five. Then finally the last one, topic for perfect. Now you just created the menu buttons. For a second. We make them invisible. That's why the selection beanie so useful. Just go there and click them here so they turn invisible. Now copy the idea icon, Control C and paste it on the third slide, Control V. Do the same with the rest. Copy the testing icon and paste it to the testing slide. Then implement icon, implement slide, and finally profit icon, do the prophet slide. Nice. Scroll down to the backups. Now you see why we needed this here. Copy this icon, Control-C, then paste it four times on each topic slides. Go to first topic and click on the smaller icon. Again, go to picture format to see the exact size, 2.33 centimeter. Click on the bigger one and just type in 2.33 centimeter. Good thing is that since it's a picture file, it resizes itself proportionally in an ultimate equation. So you only need to type the size once. Click on the icon one. This is also critical here, that you check the selection pane and make sure that you see the correct labels. Click on icon and then click on Backup icon. You see if you don't have the right labels, you can mix them up easily. And that brings more trouble later when you notice. Align them just as before. Now you have the shortcut. Select them both, go to align objects. Then click Align Left and Right after Align button. Afterwards, go to selection pane, click on Backup icon and delete it. We do the same exact process for the rest. Slide number five, resize the icon to 2.33 centimeter. Align them, then delete the backup icon. Same process for the next two. In the next video, we continue with the first animation tests. 8. Make the buttons interactive / Part 3: Now we worked a lot so far. Let's see some visual results to by testing the animation. Go to slide number two and open the slideshow. Move your cursor to t1. And you see that the cursor changes from Arrow to a finger click. Click on it. Nice. It brings us to topic one. But as I see, it doesn't zoom yet, escaped the slideshow and see what's going on. We still didn't set up the transitions for these slides. Select them all, hold Control button and click on them one by one. Go-to transitions and click on Morph. Again, decrease the speed to 1.752. Test again slide number to open the slideshow, click on the button, and that's it. Beautiful. But now we have another issue. We need another button, a home button, which brings us back to the homepage, the overview slide. No matter where we are. Quit the slideshow and let's create that home button. Go to slide number three. Again. Insert a circle shape, try to make it the exact size like the icon down here. Either you do it manually or by adjusting the size as I showed you before. This time I do it manually so you can see that too. Just as always. Make sure that you keep Shift button clicked while you drag the angles of this shape so that you keep the proportion of a perfect circle, something like that. Always try to make it slightly bigger. Now, place it right in front of the picture icon. It doesn't matter if it's not a 100% precise overlay. Just make sure that it coerce it and has more or less the same size. This is just fine. Now, similar process as before. Type in letter H by using your keyboard. This is going to be the home button. Now makes sure that you select the shape and not the character H. It happens rarely, but can happen. Simple, just click away and click on the circle. Now the circle is selected. Go to Insert, action, hyperlinked to click on slide. And here, make sure you select the overview slide. Slide number two. Go to slideshow and test it right away. Perfect, it works. Now you have to do the same for the other three topics. Quit the slideshow, go to slide number three. Click on Home button. First, rename it to home button in the selection pane. Copy it by Control C. Just it to the next three slides. You have an easy job here since it's always the same home button, no need to adjust the program behind it. It's going to morph back to slide number two. No matter where you are. This is one amazingly cool feature about PowerPoint, that no matter how complex is your presentation, how many slides the software ultimate equally adept to the interactions, transitions between the two slides. Whenever you make these hyperlinks. Let's see it yourself. Let's go to, let's go randomly to slide number four and opened the slideshow. You see how it works perfectly in the very flexible, dynamic way. How cool is that escaped a slideshow? Now, as you have realized, one big part is still missing the actual zooming effect off the background. Yes. Let's create that one too. In the next video. 9. Make the interactive buttons invisible : I know. I said now we create the moving background and beer at me and told me yet, we have one tiny stem before making the buttons invisible. You see, we still have these T12 34 buttons and they shouldn't be visible. We only need their functions. Also, if you go to the first topic slide, the home buttons should be invisible to go to slide number two and click on D1. Right-click, Format Shape, click on Fill. Then here you see transparency, make it a 100%. Then as you see the characters that we typed in t1 still visible. Here up you see shape options and text options. We only made the shape a 100% transparent. Now we're going to do the same for the text. Click on the Text Options, and here you find another transparency setting. Make it a 100 person to. Now this shape is a 100% transparent. Now it looks like we click on the icon while we click on the invisible button. Now we have to copy and paste these format settings that we just made. So we don't have to redo these steps over and over again. For debt, the Format Painter is a super tool for safety reasons. Have the selection pane in front of you. Here you'll see that you clicked on the topic one button. Now, go to Home tab. And here you find this little painter icon. Make sure you click double, not once, but double. After-death. Be careful not to click on anything else. You see the cursor, it changed next to the arrow. You see the little painter. With the DoubleClick. You kept the Format Painter switched on. And this way, you don't even have to select the shape. Then click Format Painter again. But you can keep clicking to the next shape where you want to copy paste the format. Again. This way we copied the format by simply three more clicks and we saved many rapid iterative steps. How cool is that? It really feels good to be efficient? There is one more thing. We have to do the same process for the home buttons. Click on slide number three, click on this Home button and do the same. Right-click Format Shape. Go to Fill, make the transparency a 100%, then Text Options. And here to transparency a 100%. Again, for safety, opened the selection pane. You see what is selected and what is not. Home button selected and watch. You go to Home tab Format Painter again and be careful again with the clicks. You double-click. Now it's a bit different. If you are not on the slide, but in the slide bar. Here you can click on the next slide still without using the Format Painter. While it stays active. You see I just clicked on slide number for nothing happened. But the painter icon is still there next to the arrow cursor. But now you are on the slide barrier against. So make sure you only click on the Home button. And it's invisible. Beautiful. Again, do not click anywhere else, but on the next slide, slide number five. Then click on Home button. Then click on slide number six. And click on this lest Home button and click escape. Nice, we are done. Let's check the slideshow. And it works nicely. The buttons are now invisible. Perfect. Finally, we can focus on the background. In the next video, we will do it right away. 10. Dynamic backgrounds – create moving environments : What we're going to do is do zoom into each topic areas. By debt, we use this metaphor of milestones and literally zoom into those milestones phases of the story that we are telling. Let's start with the first topic. Go to slide number three. Click on the picture. Right-click picture format, then fourth tab. And picture transparency. We make it transparent first so we can see the slide frames when we enlarge it. That's enough. Zoom out a little bit by holding Control button and scroll backwards on your mouse. With a scroll button. Grab any of the corner and drag them, making it bigger like this. You see how the transparency helps you to navigate, Whereas the slide exactly. Now go back to the overview slide to use a little help and count the steps from the left 12. See when it's bigger, it helps one to the left slide bar. You can, you can always control yourself and see the end result within the frame. Now we have to crop it because it's became quite big size picture. Now, I'm not saying it's going to crash your PowerPoints, but at some point, it can slow down the speed when you present and can make it glitching. Remember, afford a morph transition, you always have to duplicate a slide by debt. You always raised the size of the picture of FiO2. That's why we make the picture smaller. It also depends on the performance of your computer, laptop. The surest way to prevent such problem is just cropping it right here. Click on the picture, picture format and then crop around. This size is enough. Now reset the transparency. Again. Click picture format. Then transparency 0. Nice. Let's test it right away. Go to Overview. Start the slideshow. Click on the first topic. Then click on the icon to come back to homepage. Wonderful. Let's do the same process for the other three topics. Click on slide number four, make it transparent. Format the picture. Four-step transparency. That's it. Enlarge it. Again. Go back to the overview slides. Count the steps to be precise. 1234, fourth level, 1234. I want this area to be on the left side in focus here. Like this. That's a good size. Again, crop the picture. Make it smaller. Format, picture, crop. Nice. Reset the transparency. There you go. Now let's save some valuable minutes here to, let's just go directly to the next topic slide, slide number five. Again, right-click, Format, Picture, picture, icon, and transparency. Enlarge it. Go back to overview slide. Here we don't have to count, It's easy. There is a little house at the topic area. Go back and you see the house. Now it's a matter of choice here. The concept is simple. The area of the topic should be normally on the left side. So later to content part, the other part of the slide can animate in on the right. This time, I just choose to locate the house on the right instead of the left because they liked the frame that way better. But you can locate it on the left side too, if you like. The house is here like this. Now, crop it. Picture Format, crop, make it smaller. Then right-click transparency. 0. Nice. Now comes the last topic area, topic for CO2, the overview slide again, it's an easier 12 from the right side, 123. Go back to slide number 6123. I want this area here. Same steps. Right-click, Format, Picture, picture, icon, transparency. Zoom out here. Zoom out, and here you notice that for depth, little area we have to zoom in a bit deeper. And this requires us to make the picture almost twice as big as the previous one, for instance. Therefore, you have to crop already during this enlargement process. Then enlarge again the cropped picture. Here, you have to be careful to keep the picture in a line, in a line with the right border. Otherwise we will see white lines on the right. You see? Alright, so 123. Okay, Let's adjusted a little bit. That's just fine. Nice. Now, crop this picture for the second time. Click away. Nice. Rosette, the transparency again, right-click Format, Picture, picture icon, transparency. Back to 0. Alright, let's see how this all works. Go to overview slide again. Slideshow. Very nice. In the next video, we will add the missing headers, titles that are also part of these Zoom effects. 11. Completing the zooming effects – adding the headers: As you have seen from the preview video, there was an entry text on the very first slide. While you zoom into the topics, the topic titles also zoom along the way, changing their sizes and then fitting nicely to the frame where the zooming stops. Let's scroll down to the backup slides and copy this grouped textbox here. Select Control C. Then go up to the first slide and paste it Control V. Let's see the difference shortly. You see now there is that entrance cortex title right at the beginning. Now, scroll down again to the backup slides. Here you see the title text box, select it and copy. Control C. Scroll back to topic one and paste it. Control V. Click on the next slide. Paste again Control V. The same steps for the next two topics slides. Nice. Now go to the overview slide and just copy the text from the topic. One, title the idea. Click select, copy, control C. Then go-to topic one slide. Click on title, select all, and paste the copy title, Control V. If you see that by pasting it to meet a second line, then make sure you delete that. Just click Delete, and be sure that the last letter of the title is the very last character of that text, like this. Let's do the same steps for the other three topic titles. Go to overuse slides, select and copy the next typo testing. Go to the topic two slides. Click on title, select all, and paste the copied title Control V. Again, overview slide. Copy the next title. Implement Control C. Go through the topic three slides, click on the title, select all, and paste the copy title Control V. Alright, one more to go. Overview slide less title, Prophet. Select copy, Control C. Go down. Topic for slight. Click on title, select all, and paste the copy title, Control V. Nice. Let's go back to the very first slide, slideshow. Nice. We have the entry animation as we wanted. Now click on the topics. That's it. You see the title follows a zooming and fits perfectly to the target frame as the zooming stops. The same consistent zooming animation with all the other titles beautiful. In the next video, we will start adding the content of the topics, topic by topic. 12. Adding the content layouts – master slides and script / Part 1: In this video, we are starting to add the content to our topics. Make sure that you download this resource as a Microsoft Word file. We will use this. I will also refer to the end result PowerPoint. It will help understanding the process. Let's have a look at the script file first. As you can see, developing the content with PowerPoint or any other software starts without even opening the software. It starts with a pencil and paper in best-case or in your Word document. But I would encourage you to start on paper because it helps to boost and flow your creativity. Not having any frame structure yet, just an empty paper and your mind. That's how I put the structure together, which is a clear table of content. You can see now how common sense is this, that you just need a clear, logical, well-structured table of content like this. And then you transfer that into a PowerPoint. You also need to see that even as we start to work in PowerPoint, you never start with the slides. The slides are details, the structure of the content, what dominates, and how you should start. You can see structure starting with an overview, then exploring the content by topics, and exploring the topics in detail step by step. In the Word file, you can see how I divided the topics into slides. Topic one has four sub-topics. Slides. Slide 1234. The same way I continue, topic 23 slides, topic 342 slides each. Let's see it in the final PowerPoint. Open the slide sorter view to have a clearer overview. There you go. Overview topic one, including four slides, topic 23 and then four. Yes, topic for has an additional slide. But that's not a Content Unit, but a technical unit. Meaning we had to duplicate this slide to create that ending scene animation at the end. Now, let's set up the frame by preparing the slides to the topics, go-to topic one. Click on this slide, in this slide bar and duplicate it. Click Control D three times. Go-to, topic to, again, click on the slide and click Control D two times. Then topic three. Topic for go-to topic 1. First slide. Now we go to the Master Slides View tab, Slide Master. Here you can find all the layouts from the previous section of this course. What did you learn that basic steps of zooming, we still use the same template and layouts, but in a different way. I also added some new layouts to you. And these are the two layouts that we are going to need. Now, you see it's simple. Once the content on the left and then on the right. I even named these layouts content left and content right. These two are just for demonstration. You can't use these layouts. One more thing. If you have a closer look at the layout, you'll notice that the small connector shapes are gone. Well, they are still there, but I made them invisible because if I leave them in the layout, then you can't animate and zoom them in the normal view, they would be fixed. That's also one manual step that we must do from the backup slides. Alright, let's close the master slide view. Close Master View, and we are back in the normal editing. You go to the first slide within topic One, Home tab Layout. And here you see the two slides layout that I just showed you, content left and content right. Click on contents right. Then here you ultimately find the header subtitle and the body texts placeholders. Have a look at the final PowerPoint again. We already knew who that we didn't. Topic one, we have a content slide, right, left, left, and then right again. Let's set it up accordingly. Next slide, layout. Click on Content left. Next slide layouts, again, content left, forced slide layout and content right? Nice. 13. Adding the content layouts – master slides and script / Part 2: Let's switch to disorder review here as well. Then do the same with the next topics. Topic to. Let's see the final PowerPoint again. Three slides. Content right, right, and left. Home tab Layout. Content, right. Next slide, layout, content, right. Last slide, layout content left. Next topic. Again, let's see the final PowerPoint. Slide, one to content, right? Alright, go to our project file, topic three, slide one to click on slide one, layout and content right? Next slide layout, content, right. Let's topic again. Let's see the final version. Same, but this time content left, left. Go to Projects file, click on the first slide within topic for layout content left. Next slide, layout content left. Very nice. Now let's complete this process with the less layout elements. But now from the backup slides, these are the menu items that we need to copy paste manually in order to be able to zoom animate them, to scroll down and double-click on the last slide. This brings us back to the normal view. Select everything that you see on the right side like this. Always check on the selection pane if you selected well, and we need 1234 items. Here I check 1234 items, correct? Copy, click control C. Scroll back to Topic 1, first line, and paste them. Control V. You see in the selection pane that these four items now are on topic on top of every other item on this slide. Don't click anywhere else yet. In case you did click somewhere unintentionally. No problem. Just select them, hold Control button and select the first four items one-by-one again. Now, drag and drop. Then just in front of the background picture. Only the background picture has to stay in the playground. As the very last item behind. You see that we have to do the same for the second, third slide, but on the left side, scroll down again and click on this slide. Select everything on the left side. Select again these 1234 items while holding Control button and copy them. Control C, and paste it. Control V. Again, drag and drop down just right in front of the background picture. Well-done. Copy control C. Then scroll back and based control V. Again, drag and drop these four items just in front of the last picture. Now, these venules steps are all the same for the next three topics. So at this point I will fast-forward the video. If something is unclear, just come back to this part of the video and you will have your answer. Well done. You just set up the frame for all slides. In the next videos we will add the written content from the scripts file, topic by topic. 14. Topic 1: adding the content / Part 1: Let's end the contents to topic one. Go to the script file and select all content from slide one, copy Control-C. Go to the first slide, we didn't topic one and then paste control V. Drag the text box on the right. Like this, resize it slightly to seed better. Now makes sure the text box is selected. Then change the fonts due to the theme fonts. Just scroll up here within fonts and click on Roboto, Body. Copy Paste one-by-one. Let's start with the title. Select copy, Control C. Click on the title and Control V. You see that it makes sometimes in additional enter, but make sure you delete that. It is important that the last letter of the title is the very last character of the text box like this. Then subtitle, select, copy Control C. And click here, paste control V. Here. We won't need these two items. So select them both and just delete. Next slide. Go to script file. Select the slide to content copy. Control C. Go to the second slide within topic one. Based it by Control V. This time, place it on the left like this. Then change the fonts again to Roboto Body. You see that the title is still the same. You could also copy it from the other side. But to be systematic and most importantly, fast, we just keep doing it this way. So copy and paste it. You see the subtitle is already different. Select copy control C, Then based control V, delete the empty characters at the end. Now select and copy the bullet points, then paste it here, control V. Now here you have to be a bit more careful. Select these items. You can notice that these are four items not to. That's why it's so important to always have the selection being in front of you. What we only need to delete here is the backup icon and the pipe icon. Select them here and delete. By the way, don't forget to delete the text boxes on the site. Once you're ready with them. On this slide, we already have a visual item to, normally I only use pictures for this whole presentation. Here I add an icon only for demonstration how it looks like. It must support the content. The title says there was one missing piece that we ignored. So I just pick the missing puzzle icon. Go to Insert Icons. Type in puzzle. Here it is. Select and Insert. Make it slightly smaller. Change its color. Right-click Format, graphic, fill, color, and white. Good. Next slide. 15. Topic 1: adding the content / Part 2: Again, script file, select and copy the text and then paste it in this slide. Control V. Place it on the left and change the fonts to Roboto Body. Again. Select and copy the title, Control C, then paste it here, control V, Backspace twice. Select and copy the subtitle Control C, then paste it here, control V. Then the bullet points as well. Again, make sure you delete this icon and the backup home button. This time we insert the first picture in the script file. You'll see that I left myself a reminder for the keyboard once I searched for the respective picture in the library, which is arrow, go to insert pictures and stock images. Type in arrow. And that's the one, select, insert. And it's ultimately inserted. Nice. Click on the text box on the left and delete. Next slide, which is the less slide within this topic. Again, script file, select and copy the content. Control C, based it in the slide, Control V. Change the fonts to Roboto Body again. Select and copy the title. Based it here. One Backspace. Then subtitle, select Copy, then paste Control V. Then both points select copy, paste control V. This time, we need these icons. So keep the pipe icon. This will be the notification that this is the last slide when you present the content. Just a short recap. Select these items here. You see that this is our invisible home button which we created and the topic icon. That's why we need the backup icon. So hold Control button and click on Backup home button. Go-to align just in case you missed to save it as a shortcut. Again then Home tab, arrange, Align and align, right? And that's why it's important to have this shortcut in your Quick Access Toolbar to save some valuable clicks. Now, you can click on the Backup Home button and delete it. Nice. Now delete the text box on the right as well. One more thing to do, insert the right picture. Again, go through the script file and you see here I marked online meeting. Back to the slide. Insert pictures, stock images, type in online meeting. Let's scroll down and find our picture. Here it is. Select and insert. Very nice. Now we have all the contents that we need in topic one. We have to do the animations, right as well. We will do that in the next video. 16. Topic 1: animations / Part 1: Before we set up the animations, Let's see where we stand right now. Go-to overview slide, slideshow. Click on topic one. The idea. As you can see, it's still quite messy here, even though the content is already there. However, on the second slide, you already see some interesting things as the title animates to the left. Then on the last slide, we see some other thing as the home button and the other graphic animated to the right. Now let's clean up all this and make it right. Before. Let's go to Slide Sorter View. Go to transitions, select the last three slides within topic one while holding Control button. Go to duration and make it 1.5 seconds. Let's already set it up in the other topics as well. Always leave the very first slide on 1.75. Now why are we doing this? Because the first slide is the Zoom in animation from the overview, there are more details to precess for debt. We leave a bit more time to view and process, but within the topic, there are less movements between slides. For debt, 1.75 is a bit slow. Let's speed it up slightly. Select the second, third within topic to go to duration and make it 1.5 seconds. Topic three, topic for you can do it parallelly. Just select both seconds slides, then go to duration and make it 1.5. Nice. Let's go back to topic one. Opened the first slide. Let's use these legalist store icons on the left to test the slide animations. Now go to animations. Then open animation pane. Within the animation pane, you can always see all animations that are active within this slide. We have one animation for the white overlay behind the text. Let's create first an order for the movements on the screen. First, we arrive to the scene, then the white overlay should appear. Let's because simple fade in animation for that. When you click here within the animation pane, it always plays the selected animation. We have the fade in. Nice. Next move. We need the header, subtitle and bullet points. Select the header, but you can guess already the little line graphic next to it is also part of the header, so they have to move together. For that, we will use the float in animation. Now, watch out. We must be consistent with the animations too. If we stick to fade in for the white orally, then it always must be a fading animation. If we always stick to the texts with float in header subtitle body, then they always must be a floating animations as well. Consistency is key. As you noticed, you can add animations to multiple items as well, and it looks nice. Now, next move, subtitle. Here is another beautiful thing. The animation painter. It works exactly as the Format Painter. But for animations, same logic, but different case. First click on the item which includes the desired animation which we are looking for. Just click the header, then click on animation painter, and click on Subtitle. Guess what? You can be even more efficient and save even more steps. Remember the DoubleClick? Yes, same logic. Awesome news. I delete the animation that I just added to the Subtitle. Click again on the header. This time, double-click on the animation painter, then click on Subtitle and body text, then click escape. That's how you disable the animation painter. How cool is that? You didn't have to go to click on item. Then animations then select the animation, even selecting the animation, then click on item than animation painter, then glucagon know, just double-click and click on the icons one-by-one. Let's play all. Very nice. However, it's a bit too slow. Let's speed it up. The white base is already fine. That's 0.5 seconds. Let's select all the rest. Same way as you do that in the selection pane, hold Control button and select one-by-one. Then go to duration and set it to 0.5. Nice. One more thing. At the beginning, right-click on the white, on white base and start with previous. This means that the white base will animate automatically without quick. As we zoom in. Let's see what we have done. Nice. That is already very smooth. Let's move on to the next slide. 17. Topic 1: animations / Part 2: Click on the little star again. Now, that's interesting. The title and the graphic besides, move along to the left side. Why is that? Because we didn't add animation to dam in this slide, so they just morph within the transition. Remember, our morph transition is activated the whole time. We have to delete the animation from the white base. Let's check it again. Beautiful. This case we don't do anything with the header. As you see, it's the same header from the previous slide. But the rest content has changed. So we animate them. Remember, we were able to use the Format Painter between slides and guess what? Same logic for the animation painter as well. Just click to the previous slide. Click on the last item. Go-to animation painter. Double-click. Again. Be careful not to click on anything else. Click on the next slide, then click on Subtitle and body text, then escape. Nice. But we have a media item on the right side this time, an icon. We have to animate it as well along the content story. What do I mean by that? Let's think for a second. How would this animation makes sense? Here's the respective content that refers to the missing piece. Now, do you think it would be wise to tell the joke too soon? Obviously, not. Use the momentum and a real impact. Know, first move is animating this stuff to the left. A signal that next thought topic comes, we switch focus. Then comes to information. There was one missing piece which we ignored. Let's pause for a moment. Let it sink while the viewer, since this, now, that is the punchline. That's the moment to animate the visual support in by debt, you attack the brain literally from double sources. The verbal channel and the visual channel with the same information. That makes a bigger impact. Click on the icon and select float in animation. Let's see. Now, still not right, this should follow this one right after. Let's reorder the animations. Click on the last one. You see that this belongs to the icon. Drag and drop in the middle. We did not copy this animation. That's why it's 1 second long again, let's change that to duration 0.52. Let's see again, getting better. But I want this animation to come automatically right after the subtitle without clicking. Right-click and start after previous. Let's see it now in the slideshow. Let's go back one step to the first slide and then click Next. The missing piece, and then bullet points. And here's another thing. The bullet points should appear both point by bullet point. Click on the text box, and click on Effects options. Instead of as one object, click on by paragraph. Plate. One, Two, Three. Nice. Next slide. This time the header changes, so we add new animation. The rest is the same. Go back to previous slide. Click on the text box. Make sure you are in within Animations tab, go to animate painter and double-click. Click on Next slide and again, be careful. Read or scroll a bit closer and click on each item, one by 11234. Escape. Nice. Now let's clean up just as before, we want these two items to move together. And this time we don't need the white base extra animation again. So just delete the first one. Now click on the second, open this drop-down here, and click on Start with previous by debt. Who made these two animations? One, nice. Again, we have a new media item, a picture on the right. Just as we did it with the icon, we stick to float in animation. And it has to appear at the right time. First, just click on the text box. This time only one-click. And on the animation painter, and then click on the picture. Check the title. We made a complete turn. The picture refers to death one. Drag and drop this animation to the second animation like this. But again, it has to follow ultimately after the previous one. So go to drop down again and start after previous. Very nice. And finally, the last slide of this topic. Let's speed up the process a little bit. From the third slide, click again on the text box. Then go to animation painter. Double-click, click on Next slide, then one-by-one, click on the picture. Zoom a bit closer. Click on the little graphic. The header, then subtitle and body text. Click Escape. Click on the white base. You already know we wanted to need this animation, so delete it. Let's see what we have. Nice. It's already quite close. Let's make the leader line and header one animation again. Click on them one-by-one to see which number they have exactly. So it's 34, which means you have you have to click on for the dropdown. Start with previous. The other day we had a meeting. That means the picture should follow this statement. It should be the other way around. Click on the second and drag and drop it to the one level behind. Again. Click on the drop-down and start after previous. Very nice. There is one final thing to do. You remember this little icon here? This is the reminder that the topic has ended. So it must appear, at very least. You see it's the first one. While it should be right at the end. Well done. Now, after it is heavy lesson, we will continue with the topic two in the next video. 18. Topic 1: image morph effect: Before we continue with the topic to you, I intentionally left out one specific animation from the last video. Namely this one. This is called the so-to-speak image morph effect. This itself is worth a separate video because it's a powerful tool and I did not want to overload you within one single video. This is also a matter of choice. You saw a clear logical pattern from the previous video, when and how to animate individual support for the respective phrases, statements in the titles, headers. With this animation, you leave that part out, but you can also combine it. It's your call. I give you both options. Let's see how it works. You should see that it's a transition between these slides. This picture morphs into this picture. But hey, didn't we have the Morph transition already? That's right. The problem is not that, not the lack of Morph transition in this case. Let's go to this slide, open the selection pane and click on the picture. And here's the secret to explanation marks. Now go to the other slide. Click on the picture and guess what? The same executor label for the picture? That's right. You only need to label the pictures with the same exact characters within each slide and put two exclamation marks behind, like this. By same characters, I mean even the capitals and small letters. For instance, if you write the letter S capital, then it breaks the effect and it's one work. Seat yourself. It does not work this time. Only because of debt one letter. Therefore, it's very important to type in the same exact characters to both pictures plus the two exclamation marks at the beginning. Let's go to our project file and set it up there to go to slide number five. Click on the picture. You see it's still labeled as picture placeholder, which is an ultimately generated named for two slide layout which we used, double-click and rename it. Double explanation marks. Then image only small letters. Then select and copy. Control-c. Go to the next slide. Click on the picture, then double-click on the name of the picture, and paste it Control V. There you go. Now, let's see it in the slideshow. As you can see, it's still does not work. Why is that? Because we already added an animation to the second picture. Remember, the morph only works between these two pictures if there is no edit animation. The second picture, which the slide is morphing. Let's fix that. Click on the second picture. Animations. Animation Pane. You can see that there is an edit animation to this picture. Click on that animation and delete. Now test it again. Very nice. Now it works, looks very good. In the next video, we continue with the topic too. 19. Topic 2: adding the content : Here comes the next big chunk of this content topic. To open your Word file and quick overview, we have 123 slides. Go to slide one, select the content and copy Control C. Go to your project file. Click on the first slide of topic one. Within the slide, paste the copy text control V, place it on the right, resize it slightly, then change the fonts. Body text, Roboto, select and copy the title Control C. Then click on the header, paste it Control V. Select and copy the Subtitle, click and paste it. Again. Don't forget the backspace when needed, select and copy the body text. Then click and paste it here. Select the icons below. We won't need them here. Delete, click on the text box and delete that too. Next slide. Select and copy the slide to text from the script file. Go back to PowerPoint and paste it here, change the font of the text box to Roboto Body. Then copy and paste the text one by one. Delete the text box on the right and watch out. This time, we don't delete the icon below, Only the pipe icon. We still don't need that. Delete that one. But the backup home button we will need here, select the backup home button, hold Control button, and select these two on the left. The invisible button and the respective topic icon behind. Go to Align and align, right? Nice. Now, quick only on backup home button. Then delete it. Soon. You will see why we are doing that. Go to script file and see the word marked for the picture material. Go back to PowerPoint, insert pictures, stock images. Then type in material. Here it is. This is our material picture. Insert. Nice. Now you'll see that I want you to stay consistent with the Home buttons do. If a picture comes in where the icons take place, then the icon has to move. The icon is only part of the background or the content side of the slide. That's the concept behind it. There are sometimes exceptions, but we need a concept and rules and most of the cases we follow the rules. Next slide. We already know that we are going to use the same picture here, however, in a different way. This time, just copy the picture from the previous slide. Click Copy, come back and paste it. Control V. Go to a line. First, click on Align Top, then click on a line, right. Perfect. Script file, select the content, copy control C than PowerPoint file based control V. To the left, then change the font of the text box again, Roboto Body. Select, then copy, paste the contents accordingly. And as always, pay close attention to the very last characters. Delete the text box on the left. As always, have to selection pane open to see what is where. Select all the items down here. Here we will need the pipe icon named graphic, since this is the last slide of the topic, we need, of course, the topic icon and the home button, but the backup home button is not needed anymore. Click away, then click only on the backup home button and delete. We just added the contents to topic two. In the next video, we will animate them. 20. Topic 2: animations : Let's continue with the animations in topic to go to previous slide, which is the last slide of topic one. Just as before, click on the last textbox. Go to Animations, animation painter, double-click. Go back to this slide. Again. Be careful with the clicks. Scroll closer to make sure you click on all the items correctly. Little line, header, subtitle, and body text. Then click Escape. Go to overview slide and test the animations slideshow, then click on topic two. As you see, we still have some work to do. First one is the wide base, click on it and you see that the duration is wrong. And the animation to remember, the white base can only be fade animation as we set that as a rule, duration, make it 0.52. Then click on fate. And one more thing. Go to drop down and click Start with previous. Then the little line and Header have to animate together. It's easy. But if you're not sure, just select to see where they are located. So it's the first second animation. Click on the second and drop-down. Start with previous. Click on the first one. Plate from nice it works. Click away and click Play. All nice. They work fine. Click on slideshow here. Since we can also test it from here, no need to go back to Overview manually. Click on the Home button, click on the topic button. Beautiful. Also, the white base fades in automatically, and then I can proceed by clicking the next, very nice next slide. Let's test the animation. That's it. You see how nicely moves the home button networks already. Well, let's see what else we need to do here. Well, that's the easiest case. Just delete all the animations here, since it's the same exact content. But with the picture. Click Animation Pane, select them all and delete the picture. No need to add fade animation to that because there is the Morph transition, we get a new item animates as a fade in animation by default. Let's test it. Very nice. Next and last slide we are in topic two. Looks pretty nice. Now, you might wonder how come that the picture is morphing. Now, while we didn't add the doubled exclamation marks, good question. Thanks for asking. The explanation marks are only needed when it's in-between two different pictures, but these two are identical. It's the same picture. Also. The title remains the same, so we only need to animate the subtitle and bulk points. Click on the first slide, then on the text box. Animation painter again, double-click. Then third slide again. Click on Subtitle and bullet points, then click Escape. Let's test it. You see we still need to fix something. The white base should not be animated. Plus the pipe icon comes in too soon. Go to animation pane. Click on white base and delete. Test again shortly. Nice, the white base is fixed. Then click on the pipe icon, it's on the top and it should be on the bottom. Drag and drop it here. There is one more tiny thing. When you animate, you see this little glitchy effect between the text and the picture is because of the different order. Click on the picture. You see that it's on the top of all items. Go to the previous slide. Click on the picture. And you see that here, there are some items on top of the picture. As we animate to the next slide, the header and picture are crossing each other. That is what's causing the glitchy effect. Let's just drag and drop the picture on top here as well. Problem-solved, normal glitchy effects. Very nice. In the next video, we will learn another special animation. 21. Topic 2: cropping morph effect : Just as for topic one, we also have a special effect for topic two as well, which is worth a different lesson. This is called the so-to-speak cropping morph effect. This means that we morph the same picture. So the Morph transition of the picture that's happening between two slides is about one end identical picture. Still throughout the morph, we changed the picture within its own frame. The frame stays the same, but within the frame the picture is getting relocated, shifted, enlarged, shrunk, you name it. Remember, there is no sense in doing visualization animation just for the sake of it because it looks nice. No, that's an amateur approach. If you learn this course and forget everything you learned, this is the only one thing that I push you to keep in mind, at least when you use any animation visualization with a specific purpose goal that is called design. If you just pick and use it for the sake of it without meaning. That is called decoration and has nothing to do with this course. What's the concept behind this special effect here? In this slide, you explain that there was a shortcut that they realized during the production of this chemical material. You show some detailed picture on the left, but it's still a superficial statement. You just explain the point. In the next one, you switch focus. You dive into more details to reveal more. Level one. Level two, by changing the sides, you call out for extra attention. Not only debt, but you draw the attention more by zooming closer to the picture. On the left, you explain verbally step-by-step with you are showing on the screen. This is the function of this effect. Let's create this effect. Click on the last slide. Click on picture, picture format, and crop. Here is the frame of the picture. Within this frame, you can move the picture around, enlarge it, shrink it. Unfortunately, not rotating. But other than that, pretty much everything. Let's enlarge it and create a zooming effect to this area like this. Test it. Very nice, and that's it. Now, this is also just one tool. You can use it in different ways. Let me show you how. Click on this slide. Duplicate, Control D. Drink it down here and to make sure what I want to delete later, I add a blank slide demo. Now, duplicate this slide again. Click on this slide, then click on picture format, then crop. Let's say I want to demonstrate a process. Starting from the left. I zoom in here, closer. Click away. Test it. Duplicate this slide again. Control D. Click on picture, form a picture and crop. Let's go south in the middle and enlarge it. It's slightly click away. And test again. Duplicate this slide again. Click on picture, form a picture and crop. Move again upwards, upwards to the right direction, like this. Click away. Test. As a closure, I zoom back to the original position of this picture. The overview from the beginning to close this little tour guide of that visual process. This one is simple. Just click on the first slide, duplicate Control D, then drag it down here as the last slide. Go back to the first one and opened slideshow. Overview. Step one. Step two. Step three. And back to overview. It goes backwards to overview. Step three, step to step one. And starting position. Of course, while you are showing the steps visually on the left side, you explain the steps on the right side, animating the titles, words, bullet points accordingly in the right rhythm with the flow of the steps. In other words, with the flow of the story. Now, I will delete it here, but attached to this lesson, you can download an additional PowerPoint source file only about this lesson. In the next video, we continue with the topic three. 22. Topic 3: adding the content : Let's add the content to topic three. It's quite short one, so less work. Go to topic three within the script file. Just header, select and copy, then paste it in the slide. Just bring it up here. Still we need to change the font. Select Copy and Paste here. You might ask, why not just copy paste from the Word file directly? Yes, that would be convenient if it worked, but it doesn't. You can, but the font size, style, and so on are not converted into the template setup. So it's going to cause double work at the end. Only if you add it first as a text box, then change the font here and then copy paste, delete the text box and these two items down here. Next slide, go-to script file again. Second slide, content, select and copy Control C. Go to PowerPoint based it control V. Place it to the right and change the font again. Robert took Buddy, select and copy the header, based it here. Then the subtitle and the body text. Delete the text box on the right and watch out. We noted the picture we will animate in on the left. So to keep the consistency as before, a short recap about the behavior of the buttons. The button cannot stay on the slide if a picture is there. So it has to move to the right side note, you will see at the very end how it's different with full-size picture. But that's just one single case throughout the presentation. So it's not the rule. Select Home button, hold Control button, select topic icon. Go to Align and align right. Click away. Then click on the Backup Home button and delete it. Check in the script file. We are looking for pictures labeled as when I go to insert pictures, stock images, type in when. Here it is, click and insert. Very nice. In the next video, we will animate the topic three. 23. Topic 3: animations : Let's add the animations to topic three. At this point, it's better just opening this slideshow from here to see the current animations. As you can see, it's still quite messy. Let's go to the first slide of topic to. As the animations behave the same way, we can just copy them. Scroll back to the first slide of topic to click on the white base. Animation painter. Just one-click. Scroll back to the topic three, and click on the white base here. Scroll back again. This time click on the text box here. Animation painter. And now double-click. Scroll back and carefully click on the little line. The header. Then click on Next slide. Here you only click on the subtitle and body text. Remember, the picture will fade in automatically because of the morph animation. So let's save the additional animations. Click Escape. Click on the white base, then delete each animation. Test the animations from here, little star. Alright, the pipe icon should arrive less and the body text is now a single paragraph, should behave as bullet points. Let's fix these. Click on the pipe icon, drag and drop its animation to the bottom of the animation pane. Click on the text box, go to effect options, then select as one object. Now, click the little star on the left again. Let's see from the beginning slideshow. Oh, you see, we forgot something. And the header and the little line should animate together. So let's do that. On the last animation, click on the drop-down, start with previous. Click on slideshow. Again. Nice. It works all just fine. In the next video, we continue with the topic four. 24. Topic 4: adding the content : Topic for will be a short one. Just as topic three was. Let's add the content, open the scripts file, select and copy the text. Go to the first slide and paste control V. Move it to the right, then change the font to Roboto Body. Select, copy, paste the contents one-by-one. As always. Pay attention to the last characters and use backspace where it's needed. Delete the text box. Go to script file. You see the node for the world of picture number. Go back to the slide. Insert pictures, stock images, type in number. Here it is. Select and insert a picture. Select all the items down here. Open selection pane and see the selected items. We only need the home button, the topic icon, the pipe icon, and the backup home button. We don't need. Select them and delete. Next slide. Select and copy the content. Based it, control V, change the font, Roboto Body, then copy paste the contents accordingly. Well the smiley, you don't have to just type in the Smiley. Then set the font size to 200. Delete the text box on the left. Look up the word for the picture. It's concert. Go to insert pictures, stock images, then type in concert. Here it is, select and insert. We are done. Let's animate them in the next video. 25. Topic 4: animations / Part 1: We are adding the final animations of this PowerPoint, same as before. To be faster, we copy the already existing animations from the previous slides. Click on the first slide of the previous topic, Dan on the white base, animations, animation painter. Topic for slide again. Then click on the white base. Alright, let's check the slideshow. We still have some things to do. Open the animation pane. Again, go back to the previous topic and click on the textbox. Here. Animations, animation painter, double-click, click on the slide, carefully click on each item. Actually, you can already save some time in advance. If you click the items in the desired order of the animations, start with the header, including the little line. Next animation, picture than subtitle and body text and click escape. Check the slideshow. As you can see, the order is right, but still not complete. Let's fix the header animation first. Now you see it's easier to pinpoint since we set the right order at the beginning. White Bayes little line header. That means the header has to start with previous, Glick here, then click Play from, That's right. Now the animate at the same time. Click away, then click Play. All. One thing is missing. The picture has to follow the statement ultimately, just as before. Click on the picture header animation, picture, animation. Picture animation has to start after previous. One more thing. In this case, I want to have the picture from the previous slide to be fixed since we stay in the same frame. The other picture disappearing is just creating an unnecessary distraction. Let's copy the picture from the previous one. Click Control C. Next slide, Control V. First, place it correctly. Go to a line, a line top. Then again, Align, Align, Right. Nice. Now drag it and drop almost on the bottom, just in front of the background picture. For a second, Let's make the picture on the top invisible. Just to delete the animation of the picture behind. Click on the picture. Animations, open animation pane. Then click on its animation and delete it. Go back to selection pane and make the picture on top visible again. Next slide. You see that the header changed, so it has to be animated. Click on the first slide, then on text-box animation painter double-click. Again. Mind the order. A little line header. This time the subtitle first and the picture only afterwards. But I already had a specific idea with the Smiley. It's the body text. But in this case, it should appear with the question at the same time. Why? Because I assume after the header one question left, they would still expect a professional related question, but no, completely personal. Where do we party? The smiley is aimed to emphasize the ICC. Got you feeling. But it only works if it jumps in right away with the question. Once they realize it was aimed to be funny, the visual smiley ultimately boosts the human laughing. Higher chance that they will actually click on the Smiley and click on the picture, then click Escape. Click on play all. Let's clean up the mess. Let's start with the white base. In this slide, it has no animation. It has to be fixed. So click on it, then click on its animation and click Delete. Now, click on the first animation. You see it's the little pipe icon again, which must be the last animation. Drag it and drop on the button here. Click on the first one again. Now you see that it's the little line next to the header, which means the second one is the header. This animation has to start with previous. Click away, click Play all getting better. 26. Topic 4: animations / Part 2: Now, as we talked, that in this case, the subtitle and body text have to animate at the same time to you. So click on the subtitle. Then on the body text you see here, these are the second third animations. The third animation has to start with previous, click away and click Play all again. The order is now fine, but again, the picture has to start right after the subtitle and smiling. Click on the picture. You see it's the third animation, drop-down and start after previous. And we just arrived to the very final moment of this PowerPoint content. Remember from the preview video that we closed with a special closure effect. Duplicate this slide Control D. Within this slide, delete all the animations except the last one. Select them all until here. Holding Control button, click, Delete, click on the picture, picture format, and click on Crop. Direct the sidelines like this, but stay within the frame. Click away. Then make sure you select the picture and align left. As you can see, it's not covering the slide fully. We will cheat a little bit. Click here, and deform the picture until it feels the slide frame. Normally we'd never do this, but in this case it's barely visible. So I go with it. Click on the little star. It looks actually nice. We have to reorder the items to create the desired effect. Which means we have to place the picture on top so it can cover the content on the left. Go to selection pane, click on picture. Here it is. Drag and drop it to the top. But don't forget that we still need the home button. As always. Just select this area in the corner like this. And you notice that we just selected four items, direct them all, and drop on the top. Let's test it. You see again these little glitchy effects as the picture starts to covert the items. To erase this glitchy effect, go back to this slide and reorder the items accordingly. The picture has to be on top of them here as well. But these items do. And guess what? We still have to delete the backup home button, in this case the pipe icon to, since it's technically not the last slide yet. Let's select them all first. Drag and drop them to the top. And let's go one-by-one. The invisible home button. We need that. The topic icon. Of course, we need that. The pipe icon has to go. It's still nonetheless, slide, click, Delete. Next one, backup home button, not needed anymore either. Delete. Let's go back to the final slide and test it. Now. Beautiful. Just as we wanted. One last thing. Delete the backup home button from this slide to click on it in the selection pane and delete. We have arrived at the last step. Let's have a review of the whole project again, now that you created it yourself. We will do that in the next video. 27. Final Preview: Let's recap what we have learned in this project. The goal of this project was that you, as a team leader or team member, would present a success story of a product launch. It's about a chemical product and that finally the team got the approval from the board to launch. You build up a fully dynamic environment for your content. Interacting with the buttons, zooming into each topic, presenting, animating the content within those chapters. As I mentioned, this is the homepage and the menu bar is this metaphoric stare. Right here. After we have designed the background buttons, we started to set up the slide layouts for each topic using the pre-built master slides. But combining with the manual steps, when we had to copy paste the items from the backup slides. We then started to add the contents topic by topic, based on the script file that I prepared for this project. Along the way, we learned and practiced many animations focusing on consistency. At some points, we have learned some special effects that we included in separate videos. And that's all you have created this project on your own now step-by-step. I hope you enjoyed it and learned valuable skills for your own projects.
