Powerpoint Cascading Pictures Animation
Hi everyone, today we’ll continue to look at powerpoint. However, we’ll be looking at creating a cascading picture effect.
This effect is based on a powerpoint file which I had helped changed, to use for the new slides my boss had wanted to use for a presentation. Essentially, the effect is to create a cascading effect, as pictures ‘drop’ or cascade from different locations, to fall into place besides each other (looks better than it sounds).
1. select picture to apply animation to, in this case, the upper left picture, of the army tank
2. select Slide Show > Custom Animation
3. select Add Effect > Entrance > Fly In
4. select ‘After Previous’ from the Start dropdown box
note: the default selection of ‘On Click’ from Start dropdown box causes that animation to ONLY start after you click the mouse
note: select ‘After Previous’ from Start dropdown box ensures that animation will automatically start after the previous animation is completed
5. select appropriate direction from the Direction dropdown box, in this case, ‘From Left’
6. select upper right picture, of house
7. repeat steps#3 to 4
8. select appropriate direction from the Direction dropdown box, in this case, ‘From Top’
9. select lower right picture, of handphone
10. repeat steps#3 to 4
11. select appropriate direction from the Direction dropdown box, in this case, ‘From Right’
12. select lower left picture, of hill
13. repeat steps#3 to 4
14. select appropriate direction from the Direction dropdown box, in this case, ‘From Bottom’
