Incorporating+into+PowerPoint


 * __Directions for PowerPoint__:

Embed a Movie ** ·  Insert a slide in PowerPoint that has a blank slide layout or just a title on the slide. ·  Go to the top toolbar. ·  Choose ** INSERT **     à    **Movies and Sounds**   à   **Movie From FILE** ·  The “insert movie” window opens to allow you to browse to where you have your movie saved. For example, if you saved your movie to ** My Documents **  à   **My Videos**, then you would go to that folder to click on your movie. ·  After you click your movie, click “** OK **” ·  A window will appear asking you if you want the movie to start automatically in your show or when you click on it. I prefer to have it play when I click on it. So choose “** When Clicked **”. ·  At this point, you can drag the movie to a different spot on the slide, or drag it by the corner to make it bigger on the screen. ·  View the slideshow to preview. (When you hover over the picture in slideshow view, a hand should appear. When you click on it, the video should play).  ·  ** __ HINT __ : You need to save your movie AND your PowerPoint in the SAME folder. If you do not do this, then the next time you open your PowerPoint, your movie will not work. ** >> media type="custom" key="2876189"
