How can I create a PowerPoint video with audio?

Creating a PowerPoint video with audio is a straightforward process. First, you’ll want to ensure that all of your slides are in place and formatted to your liking. Here is a step-by-step guide to add audio and convert your presentation into a video:

Adding Audio to PowerPoint

1. Click on the slide where you want to add the audio.
2. Go to the “Insert” tab on the toolbar at the top of the screen.
3. In the “Media” group, click “Audio” and then select “Audio on My PC” from the dropdown menu.
4. Find and select the audio file you want to use and click “Insert”.

After adding the audio, you can adjust playback settings. If you want the audio to play across multiple slides, select “Play in Background”. This makes the audio file start automatically during a slide show and also makes the audio play across multiple slides.

Converting PowerPoint to Video

1. Go to “File” > “Export” > “Create a Video”.
2. Choose the quality of the video under the dropdown menu.
3. Under “Seconds spent on each slide”, specify the default timing between slides.
4. Click “Create Video”, name your file, select a location to save your video, and then click “Save”.

Remember, the video creation process can take several minutes or longer, depending on the length of the video and the complexity of the presentation.
