How To Convert PPT To Video

Instructions on how to quickly convert a PPT deck to video. UPDATE -- this example was for a "ONE SLIDE" deck for simplicity's sake. Obviously, if your deck has more than one slide, just upload them all and adjust their size to match your audio. Questions? dick@dickcarlson.com

if you want to make a short audio file
easily available to lots of learners a
great way easily enough is to create a
video file that you post directly to
youtube com not very intuitive but it's
one of the best ways to be sure that
nearly anyone can manage to download and
consume your content i found a quick way
to do this is using PowerPoint also
pretty not intuitive i was presenting to
a great bunch of trainers the other day
and mentioned the idea so now i actually
have to tell people how to make it work
a completely free method step 1 create a
one slide powerpoint deck make a single
slide deck and use slideshow record
narration to record your audio or record
it with another tool if you know how to
manage that step to save slide as a jpeg
do a save as using the jpeg option which
will create a JPEG image of your single
slide step 3 save power . as a webpage
to us save as web page and you'll find
the audio file as a little . wav wav
file step for open windows movie maker
it's on your machine already import the
single jpg image and the audio file into
the timeline
step 5 finish the movie as a WMV file
finish the movie to your computer then
upload it to youtube the first time you
do this it may take you an hour and you
may tear your hair out by the fifth time
it will be less than five minutes if you
have more money than time there are a
whole bunch of little apps online that
will take the powerpoint deck with the
audio and do it for you
there are of course many other ways to
do this using recording software like
audacity or audition using video
software like final cutter premier or
hiring George Lucas a bunch of offshore
animators I was just talking about
something very quick and dirty that
would get the job done
if you give it a try leave a note in the
comments and let me know where I went
wrong
this has been deep Carlson at tech
