Hi everyone and welcome to project three of the powerpoint video course.
So in this one we are going to try to push powerpoint to the limit and we will mainly use Morf transitions
and 3D shapes something that we didn't use in the previous projects.
So since we did the second project about Elon Musk Well let's do this one about astronomy.
So there are things that you're going to learn here is basically how far you can go with Powerpoint.
And even if you don't plan on using 3-D shapes anytime soon in your presentations Well it doesn't matter.
The transition that we will play with the more transition you can actually apply them with all kinds
of PowerPoint objects and you can get very creative with it.
So let's start.
And let me show you what you can do is it.
So first let's find an absolutely huge picture of space of stars.
So let's go on Google.
And the thing here is that you need a really huge picture an absolutely huge picture which means for
example something like this.
You see the number of pixels here.
Well has to be much bigger than your screen so your computer screen is probably something like thousand
nine hundred twenty eight thousand eighty.
And so this one is like two or three times bigger than this.
So this one is good.
This one not enough.
And yeah this one for example can definitely work.
So pick one.
Which is really really big.
OK.
And then we'll continue.
So go back to PowerPoint.
So I already have mine.
I will insert it.
So I chose this one as you can see it when you open PowerPoint it automatically resizes the picture
to fit in your slide.
But what we need is to actually make it much bigger.
So let's resize it while keeping the proportions OK.
As you can see since I picked a really big picture even if I resize it I zoom out.
It still stays very sharp.
That's why we need a picture with a really really big resolution because we're kind of going to zoom
at it.
Right.
So that's our PowerPoint slide behind.
And so this is the picture.
So as you can see it can get much bigger without losing quality.
OK.
So for now keep it normal size just to fill in the slide.
OK.
Like this.
It really doesn't matter where it is as long as you're feeling the whole slide with it.
And now let's just make it slightly darker because it's too bright.
So you go here and picture corrections and brightness you just decreases a little bit.
Yeah minus 30 percent or 20 23 percent for example something like this is good.
I mean it also depends on the picture that you chose.
If it's already not that bright then it's fine.
So now let's insert our first 3D shape.
You go here insert 3-D models and then choose from on line sources.
So I will explain later.
But basically when you click here you have a source that Microsoft is partner with which is this one.
And they already proposed it to download many 3-D shapes directly within PowerPoint.
But as you can see there's just one source for now.
I'm pretty sure that Microsoft will add many more sources over the time and you can also download your
own 3-D models from different Web sites.
But I will talk about it later.
For now just type a keyword here and type.
That's fine.
A 3D model of the earth right.
This one.
So click on it insert.
All right.
So here we have a 3-D model.
And when you click here and you drag the mouse as you can see you can position this model as you want
because this is a real 3D model.
It's not an illusion of a 3D model.
So unfortunately PowerPoint doesn't yet allow to animate these 3D objects individually.
So I can not create an animation for example that will make this Earth rotate on the slide.
I can only make it appear and basically use all the traditional PowerPoint animations.
However I can animate that 3D shape itself using the morph transition.
So for now morphed into action is the only solution to that.
But here again I also think that with some time Microsoft will introduce a way to animate these treaty
objects as well.
So let me show you how it's done.
So let's say that I want the earth to come to that position here.
Make it bigger.
And let's put it here let's see what it does.
OK.
Ercis here and that's fine.
Now let's duplicate this slide.
OK.
Now we have two slides.
And on this slide.
First of all let's turn the earth like this.
OK.
And now let's apply to this slide.
The transition more OK.
As you can see it rotates the 3D object which is really amazing.
And you can do many things like this.
Now there are many problems of course.
For example you cannot decide in which direction this object is rotating.
You can only do a morph transition and then it will decide automatically what this sort of the shortest
path from one point to another.
So I cannot tell this object rotate that direction.
It will do it automatically.
So you have to adapt and you have to play with it.
But now let's do some more offensive things.
So first of all let's make an impression as if we were flying towards this earth or if the earth was
coming towards us.
So once you position it let's make this object much smaller much smaller.
And let's position it outside of the slide here at the angle because yes when we will be using the morph
transition we will actually be working a lot outside of the slide and now on the second slide.
Let's use this picture here which by the way is not a background if you set it as a background.
It will not work.
So since we have this picture and it's really big we can increase the size of it.
So let's make it bigger like this.
OK.
Last thing that we should do is go in transition here and here you see duration.
When we when I showed you the rotation it was really too fast.
Obviously it's because the transition is two seconds.
So it's really fast.
So let's put it that five seconds for example.
And now let's see what happens.
All right we have our amazing Earth animation.
So as you can see I did two things here.
So we have this 3-D object which rotates and becomes bigger.
So I placed it outside of the first slide and then I have this background which is really big.
So I can do what I want that I can zoom zoom zoom out and by zooming in it creates this movement impression.
So basically the Morfe transition is doing all the job.
All right.
This is really cool.
