Creating Brush Animation in PowerPoint
Creating a brush animation in PowerPoint can be an engaging way to enhance the visual impact of your presentation. Here are the steps to create it:
Step 1: Insert a Shape
Go to the “Insert” tab on the Ribbon, click on “Shapes”, and choose the shape you want. Click and drag on the slide to create the shape.
Step 2: Apply a Brush Stroke Style
Once your shape is on the slide, you can apply a brush stroke style to it. To do this, select the shape, go to the “Format” tab, click on “Shape Outline”, then “Weight”, and choose a thicker line for a more pronounced brush stroke effect. Then, go back to “Shape Outline”, click “Dashes” and select the style you prefer. You can also change the color of the shape outline to match your presentation theme.
Step 3: Apply an Animation
With your brush-stroke-styled shape selected, go to the “Animations” tab. Choose an animation that suits your needs. For a brush-stroke effect, the “Wipe” animation can be effective. Click on “Effect Options” to choose the direction of the animation.
Step 4: Set Animation Timing
Under the “Animations” tab, you can set the “Start”, “Duration”, and “Delay” of the animation using the relevant options. This allows you to control when and how quickly the animation occurs.
Remember, creating effective presentations is all about grabbing and keeping the attention of your audience. Brush animation can be a powerful tool for this, provided it’s used appropriately and in moderation.
