Adding sparkle animation to your PowerPoint presentation can make it more engaging and eye-catching. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
1. Insert an Image or Text
First, you need to decide what element you want the sparkle animation to be associated with. It could be a specific text or image. To insert an image, go to the ‘Insert’ tab and click ‘Pictures’. Choose the image you want to use and click ‘Insert’. If you want to animate a text, just type the text into a text box.
2. Insert Sparkle Animation
Now, it’s time to insert the sparkle animation. Go to the ‘Insert’ tab, click ‘Shapes’, and choose the one you prefer. After selecting the shape, draw it over the text or image you want to animate. Once the shape is drawn, right-click on it and select ‘Format Shape’. In the fill option, select ‘Picture or texture fill’, then ‘File’ to insert the sparkle animation picture. After that, go to the ‘Animations’ tab, choose the ‘Custom Animation’ option, and select ‘Add Effect’. Then choose ‘Entrance’ and finally select ‘Fade’.
3. Adjust Timing
The next step is to adjust the timing of the sparkle animation. Click on the animation in the ‘Animation Pane’, then click on the drop-down arrow and select ‘Timing’. You can adjust the duration of the animation, delay it, or set it to start with or after a previous animation.
4. Repeat Animation
If you want the sparkle animation to repeat, select ‘Repeat’ under the timing options and choose how many times you want it to repeat or select ‘Until end of slide’.
5. Preview Animation
After setting up everything, click ‘Preview’ in the ‘Animations’ tab to check if the sparkle animation works as you intend. If not, you can always go back to the previous steps and make adjustments until it looks perfect.
Remember, the key to a great presentation is not only to make it visually appealing but also to ensure the content is engaging and meaningful. If you need professional help, SlideGenius experts are always ready to assist you.
