Convert PowerPoint to Flash Video (FLV), Easier than You Can Think

PowerPoint, the predominant desktop app to create illustrated document in offices. Flash Video, the beloved of the Web to spread animated document out of office. Many companies and none-profit institutions do appeal to both PowerPoint and flash videos. To make further reach to a presentation, you may consider converting the PowerPoint to flash video (.flv).

Don't have an idea of flash video?

Here's a brief introduction.
Flash video, short for FLV, is a media file format used to deliver video over the Internet using Adobe Flash Player version 6-10. Flash Video content may also be embedded within SWF files, within which the audio and video data are encoded in the same way. Flash video is viewable on most operating systems, via the widely available Adobe Flash Player and many other third-party players like MPlayer, VLC media player, QuickTime and Moyea Web Player. With small size, flash video has established its name as the choice format for embedded video on the web. It is used by web services like YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo! Video, metacafe.

What Can You Benefit from converting PowerPoint to Flash Video?

1. Be friendlier to your audience. There are much more computers installed with a flash player than a PowerPoint program compatible with yours. That is, your audience will get a quick access to your presentation masterpiece in Flash Video. And, a flash video online is more intuitive than a PowerPoint presentation to download.
2. Smaller size makes more sense. A PowerPoint file turned in flash video is much smaller than its original size. A credit to fast web distribution. To insert a presentation to your blog, a web video service like YouTube, you'd better reformat it to such swift FLV file.
3. Hassle free from PowerPoint emailing. Many users suffered from emailing a clumsy PowerPoint file to a client or a friend. With the presentation in small flash video via an online web service, they don't have to email it while the viewers won't bother to wait and download.
4. Safeguard your presentation work. A PowerPoint file is liable to being stolen by unwanted hands, e.g. your rival companies, with minor modification. When you finalize it in flash video, one cannot edit it with ease. Your content will be safer during web distribution.

• Phase 2: Convert the sermon PowerPoint presentation to video
  
  

Procedures of Creating a Sermon Slideshow Video

Phase 1: Compile the sermon presentation script in PowerPoint

To make a thrilling sermon slideshow video, you should develop a thrilling sermon PowerPoint original first.

Generally, there are 5 steps for composing a complete PowerPoint presentation, shown as below:

a. Select a matching layout for the sermon PowerPoint
This includes the slide mode, PowerPoint background or template. Although MS PowerPoint itself has a few built-in templates for your sermon presentation, you can taste some others with a typical Christian style to outstand. You can get free Christian PowerPoint templates and backgrounds at eBibleTeacher.com, ChristianPPT.com, ParadiseDesign.com

b. Add or import the text with illustrations for the sermon PowerPoint

The core is the content. Your audience would be evoked quickly by an illustrated, well-organized sermon story. Structure the text and the pictures. Use short words and phrases instead of long sentences. Note that audience would often turn around for another when coming to a video with blurred graphics. So remember to choose quality pictures for your sermon PowerPoint. Tune the text and the pictures till perfect. See also PowerPoint font tips for your sermon presentation.

c. Wing the sermon PowerPoint presentation with animations and transitions

How would you like the sermon presentation move on? You'd better rely on the magic of MS PowerPoint, a rich range of animations and transitions. Animate the Christian artwork to achieve more.

d. Give a dynamic mood (music or movie clip) to the sermon PowerPoint Church is always associated with merry hymns. Why not move the merry mood to your sermon PowerPoint presentation? Any Christian online will be very likely to hear your dynamic message! Alternatively, you can use an old movie clip that fits the sermon to add a touch.

e. Test! Test! Test!

A presentation without tested practice is never a good presentation. When you are about to finish the sermon presentation, don't forget to test the integral effect. Check the sermon
slideshow from a global view, looking through to see whether each PowerPoint element is coherent with another. If you want the church sound to play across all the slides, check whether it is exactly as long as the slideshow. If not, adjust the slide transitions to make them accord.

Phase 2: Convert the sermon PowerPoint presentation to video

How to Add an iTunes Sound to PowerPoint Presentation

Add music, add a mood to your PowerPoint presentation. You wanna use a song from iTunes store as background music of the PowerPoint file? Oops, there is a format problem. PowerPoint doesn't accept iTunes music, which is encoded in M4P. You need to make a format alternation before inserting the iTunes sound into your presentation.

Here I will discuss in 2 sections how to convert iTunes music to a PowerPoint-supported audio format, and how to import the converted iTunes sound to PowerPoint 2003/2007.

Section 1 Convert iTunes Music to PowerPoint compatible audio (e.g. MP3)

Mentioning this issue, we should know which sound formats are compatible with PowerPoint.
Audio file formats compatible with PowerPoint 2003/2007 include: AIFF, AU, MIDI, MP3, WAV, WMA
Among the sound formats above, MP3 is the most familiar to us, with its small size and good sound quality. So to convert iTunes music to PowerPoint compatible format often means to realize the conversion from M4P to MP3.
Generally, you can try these two ways to convert an iTunes track to MP3 audio format.

Method 1 Burn and Rip the iTunes music to MP3 for PowerPoint

• In the iTunes store, select the track that you want to use in your PowerPoint presentation. Then burn it to an empty CD disk.
• Open the disk with Windows Media Player, and rip music from the CD into a *.wma format. Right click on the track and choose to send to Windows Audio Converter. There you can choose the format as MP3 and save it to a folder.

Method 2 Convert iTunes to MP3 with Third-party Audio Converter

You can also use a third-party audio conversion tool to convert iTunes to MP3.
iTunes to MP3 Conversion software include: TUNEBITE Platinum, SoundTaxi Converter, 5star freeTunes, and AppleMacSoft DRM Converter for Mac
Choose one that fits to your system, and convert the iTunes M4P to PowerPoint-ready MP3.

Note: iTunes music files (M4P - "protected AAC") have DRM protection which prevent users from converting it to other formats or adding iTunes songs to PowerPoint presentation directly. To insert iTunes music to PowerPoint slide show as background music, you will need to remove DRM protection from iTunes Music and convert iTunes to MP3 for PowerPoint first.

Section 2 Import converted iTunes music to your PowerPoint presentation

Now, it's time to insert the iTunes MP3 sound to your PowerPoint presentation. Follow these steps:

a. Go to the slide where you want to add the iTunes MP3 sound. Select Insert -> Movies and Sounds -> Sound from File to insert the sound file from your local drive. Click OK.

b. Then you will see a message pop up asking how you want the sound to start in slide shows. Click Automatically.

Back to School Fun: Make Back-to-school DVD Movie with PowerPoint

Half fun, half fear. That is always what your kids feel in the first week of school. Fun in meeting new friends, and fear of the summer gone-by yet of what's to come. As teachers and parents, you can plan a colorful series of back to school crafts and activities to shatter the fear and encourage your kids. You may throw a funny film shot at night of the first school day, but I assume it would be more interesting and inspiring to guide kids to DIY their own back-to-school DVD movies with PowerPoint. Since kids are curious to new things, a challenging movie creation may dig their inspiration of crafts, brush up their computer skills, drive out initial back-to-school fear, and rebuild confidence in them. So this new school year, teach your children to make an icebreaker back-to-school DVD movie with PowerPoint and make a shiny start.

What You Will Need:

• High-def Digital Photos


• 
  


• MS PowerPoint on Your PC


• 
  


• Mood Music or Video Clips


• 
  


• Quality Blank DVD Disk(s)


• 
  


• Moyea PPT to DVD Burner Edu


• 
  


• DVD Player or Projector
  

What to Do:

Generally, this back-to-school DVD movie requires 2 processes - One is to mould in PowerPoint, One is to burn to DVD disc.

A. Mould back-to-school PowerPoint slideshow
I recommend MS PowerPoint because it is easy to use for young kids. You don't need to be a genius to use and teach PowerPoint. Now the first step you are to take is to compose the shape of the back-to-school movie with PowerPoint. Have no idea of the "shape"? It indicates what kind of story you want to develop in the back-to-school movie. It can either be an immediate record of awesome activities on the first school day, or an exotic collection of each kid's photo memories of the past summer vacation.
As to the movie story itself, you should associate it with your existing sources: the most basic factor digital photos, the effect accelerator mood music (also background music), or fitting video clips to give more of a touch. Be sure you have enough high-def photos in hand to support a back-to-school movie show (usu. 7-10 photos per minute).

When all the materials for the digital project are ready, it's time to assemble them into PowerPoint. You can use Photo Album in PowerPoint 2003/2007 to add in and edit the photos in order, insert the ready video clip to an expected slide, title the scenes of your movie story, and give a music mood that hits the point.
After edition, it comes to the second process:

B. Burn back-to-school PowerPoint presentation to DVD disc

A slideshow is not enough. Your back-to-school PowerPoint presentation can be playback on a DVD player or projector like a real TV show. All you need is to burn it to accessible DVD with such a cheap but effective app as Moyea PPT to DVD Burner Edu, an e-Learning program that can burn PowerPoint to SCORM compliant DVD and video at on go. Here is a simple guide of burning PowerPoint to DVD disc.

a. Pop in a blank DVD disc to your PC if supportable. Otherwise, you will finally get DVD image files of the back-to-school movie that requires another burning app to burn to disc.
b. Install and launch Moyea PPT to DVD Burner Edu. Then import the back-to-school PowerPoint file.
c. Select the output to DVD (either Standard or High Definition). Personalize your back-to-school DVD movie with your individual logo. Also select a proper DVD theme from the Menu tab.
d. Click Start to burn the back-to-school PowerPoint to DVD (disc).

For illustrative details of burning a PowerPoint presentation to DVD, see in How to Burn PowerPoint to DVD

OK. Your back-to-school DVD movie is ready on a disc. Connect it to a DVD player hooked to a large-screen TV, or to your school computer with a projector. Turn the icebreaker movie on, sit back with your kids, and enjoy the fun school day project!
