How to Do: Microsoft PowerPoint

PowerPoint is a presentation tool. It allows you to build a collection of  ’slides’ which you can click through.

The slides can contain images, videos and text. You can also make the content ‘animate’ and place transitions between slides (such as fade out and fade in and many others) so that moving from one to another has a little more impact.

For professionals…

Many people in business use PowerPoint, and most business people have memories of both good and bad presentations. If you want to learn to use PowerPoint for business use and take a few pointers from a graphic designer about how to make presentations look good, then call me on 07017 343434. I can definitely help.

For the rest of us….

PowerPoint is a great tool to use to collect family pictures, videos and memories together – a sort of photo and Video album. You can publish the results to a web page (easily – no techno-babble) you can email the presentation to others, you can get it onto a DVD and look at it on your television. Of course, you can just turn on your computer and look at the presentation.

I can help anyone who prepares, or oversees the preparation of presentations using Microsoft PowerPoint and needs to understand how. I can cover:

• Creating presentations: Starting from scratch, using different slide layouts, creating and formatting text slides, text effects.
• Using graphics, videos and pictures: Creating and formatting drawings, inserting clip art objects, inserting other pictures, formatting graphics.
• Organising the presentation: Slide sorter view, producing speaker notes and audience handouts, printing.
• Running the slide show: Transition and animation effects
