Convert PowerPoint 2010 Presentation To Different File Types This is different than just saving a PowerPoint as a different file type so you need to be clear what you are being asked to do in your question. To begin, launch the PowerPoint 2010 presentation which you want to convert. Head over to File menu, and click Save & Send. From the main window, under File Types, click Change File Type. In right sidebar, you will see list of file types.Click desired file type from the list. Under Image File Types, there are two file types; PNG(Portable Network Graphics) and JPG format.

You will be asked on your exam to save a file as a PowerPoint Show. Why Should You Be Saving As a PowerPoint Show Before Sharing? When you deliver a PowerPoint presentation, you don't want technical issues--such as starting your presentation on the correct slide--to concern you. Microsoft PowerPoint allows you to save your presentations to start automatically by changing the settings within the program's menu. A powerpoint show is a presentation that always opens in Slide Show view rather than in Normal view. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
Save Presentation as a PowerPoint 2010 Show File Save the presentation containing the PowerPoint triggers, transitions, animations, sounds, timings, ink marks, etcetera as a PowerPoint show file. This will embed the sound/music files into the presentation so that they will be included when you email this show to others. • Choose File > You can select either Save and Send or Save As for this task • If you select Save and Send under Type Select PowerPoint Show. If you select Save As in the Save As dialog box, type a name for the file (if it is not already named) and then click on the drop down arrow for Save as type: • Scroll to select the option PowerPoint Show (*.ppsx). • Click the Save button. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
You can also create a custom show based on an existing PowerPoint file! This can save you time and allow you to make refinements for the audience. On the exam you will be asked to create a custom show. • This is done by selecting the Slide Show Tab and in the Start Slide Show group selecting Custom Slide Show. If asked to create a new show, select New. If you are asked to edit an existing show, select Edit (you will be asked to do both). • If it is a new show remember to enter a name. You will also need to select the slides specified in the question and click Add to move them into the show. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
Working With Audio • On the exam you will be asked to use an Audio File. Go to the Insert Tab, in the Media group select Audio, then select Audio from File. • If prompted to answer “How do you want the sound to start in the show”, select your option. We suggest you choose automatically • When the sound icon is selected on the slide, the contextual menu changes to reflect options available for sound. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
TIPS FOR USING AUDIO • Loop until stopped (this means that it will play continuously until the slide show itself stops). • When this is ticked, the song will start playing again from the beginning if it finishes before your presentation is over. • Have the music both fade in and fade out with a 5 second timing for both • Hide the sound icon during the show (it looks better this way) • Select "Play across all slides" under the "Start" list. This setting will cause the song to play throughout the presentation. • Be cognizant of the timing of the music and the slideshow. You can always trim the audio if it is too long. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
NARRATION • While this is not on the exam, you will find that having this knowledge is very useful. • When creating a video version of a presentation, you'll probably want to “capture” the human element of the presentation by recording and timing voice narration and even laser pointer gestures. • You can record your slide show prior to sharing it with your audience, or you can record a narration while actively delivering a presentation to a live audience and include their comments and questions in the recording. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
Recording Narration • When you record a narration, you run through the presentation and record each slide. You can pause and resume recording any time. • Ensure your microphone is set up and in working order prior to recording your slide show. • On the Slide Show tab, in the Set Up group, click Record Slide Show . • Select one of the following: • Start Recording from Beginning • Start Recording from Current Slide • In the Record Slide Show dialog box, select the Narrations and laser pointer check box, and if appropriate, select or deselect the Slide and animation timings check box. • Click Start Recording. • To end your slide show recording, right click the slide, and then click End Show. • The recorded slide show timings are automatically saved and the slide show appears in Slide Sorter view with timings beneath each slide.

Your Assignment-You will apply a number of exam tasks to enhance a presentation and also learn how to make an exciting video file in PowerPoint DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
1. You can upload PowerPoint videos to YouTube, Facebook, the Web, etc • 2. You can transfer PowerPoint slides to an iPod or a mobile phone and enjoy the presentations while on the move even without a PowerPoint viewer app. • 3. If your slideshow is like a photo album with lot of images, convert the PowerPoint to video and burn onto a DVD – you can now watch the presentations on a large TV screen. • The possibilities are endless. PowerPoint files converted to video using this technique also preserve all the voice narrations. And as expected, the total cost is $0. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
Why turn your presentation into a video? • You want to give a high-fidelity version of your presentation to colleagues or to other constituents such as students, alumni, or accrediting/reporting agencies (either as an e-mail attachment, published to the web, on a CD or DVD). DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
AFTER ALL: YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine on the Web DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
Some Tips To Remember When Recording Your Presentation As A Video: • You can record and time voice narration and laser pointer movements in your video. • You can control the size of the multimedia file and the quality of your video. • You can include animations and transitions in your movie. • Viewers do not need to have PowerPoint installed on their computers to watch it. • If your presentation contains an embedded video, the video will play correctly without your needing to control it.

Step 24: With the audio selected select the Playback on demand tab and select • Play across slides • Select To Either • Loop until stopped (this keeps it going as long as the presentation is running and is done when the video run time is longer than the duration of the audio file) or • Play the video as a slide show by clicking the Slideshow button on the bottom right side of your screen. Pay attention to where in your presentation the audio ends. On the slide where the audio ends insert another song. Now what you will want to do is adjust each audio file so that they blend into each other making a smooth transition. You do this by adjusting the Fade on the audio tools playback on demand tab. My suggestion is to adjust the fade out of the first song to 15 seconds and the fade in of the second song to 10 seconds. • Hide During Show • Set the volume to high. • Step 25: Preview by viewing as a slide show. If the audio begins or ends abruptly then you will want to adjust the fade on the audio tools playback on demand tab. DR NICOLE BUZZETTO-MORE
