Creating a PowerPoint video with voice over involves a few simple steps, and you do not need any third-party software. Here’s a step-by-step process on how you can do it:
Step 1: Prepare Your Presentation
Ensure your slides are ready and free from any errors. This includes checking the design, text, images, animations, and transitions to make sure everything is just the way you want it.
Step 2: Set Up Your Microphone
Connect your microphone to your computer and make sure it’s working correctly. You can check this in your computer’s sound settings.
Step 3: Begin Recording
Go to the “Slide Show” tab on the PowerPoint ribbon, then select “Record Slide Show”. You can choose to start recording from the current slide or from the very beginning. Once you click this, PowerPoint will go into a full-screen mode.
Step 4: Record Your Voice Over
Once in full-screen mode, you’ll see a small control panel at the top left of your screen. Click on the microphone icon to turn on your microphone. Now, you can start speaking your voice over. You can navigate through the slides using the forward and back arrows.
Step 5: Save Your Recording
Once you’ve finished, hit the square stop button on the control panel, then press escape to exit full-screen mode. PowerPoint will automatically save your voiceover with the presentation.
Step 6: Export Your Presentation as a Video
Finally, to save your presentation as a video, go to “File” > “Export” > “Create a Video”. Choose the video quality you want, then click “Create Video”. Enter a name for your video, choose where you want to save it, and click “Save”. PowerPoint will then convert your presentation into a video, complete with your voiceover.
