getting ready to present my slide show live on the 00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:31.500 Web, so viewers can watch it remotely. 00:00:31.500 --> 00:00:32.500 It's easy. 00:00:32.500 --> 00:00:36.140 All you and your viewers need is an internet connection. 00:00:36.140 --> 00:00:43.690 Just go to the Slide Show tab, choose Present Online... and a dialogue box will appear - click 00:00:43.690 --> 00:00:45.980 Connect. 00:00:45.980 --> 00:00:49.310 And now PowerPoint is preparing your online presentation. 00:00:49.310 --> 00:00:53.920 This step can take a couple minutes depending on your internet connection. 00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:55.510 The result is a link. 00:00:55.510 --> 00:00:59.170 You can copy this link or send it to your viewers in an email. 00:00:59.170 --> 00:01:03.710 When they click the link, a new window will open to display your presentation. 00:01:03.710 --> 00:01:10.070 Once you're ready to begin, click Start Presentation, then just give your presentation like you 00:01:10.070 --> 00:01:11.689 normally would. 00:01:11.689 --> 00:01:15.150 Your viewers will have the same view of the slides that you do, so they'll be able to 00:01:15.150 --> 00:01:19.940 follow along as you advance the slides, just as if they were there with you. 00:01:19.940 --> 00:01:24.100 In our experience, this feature may not always work correctly the first time. 00:01:24.100 --> 00:01:27.700 To make sure there aren't any surprises the day of your presentation, you may want to 00:01:27.700 --> 00:01:30.360 test it out with a friend or co-worker first. 00:01:30.360 --> 00:01:34.740 Also, be aware that you can't use PowerPoint to speak to your audience while presenting 00:01:34.740 --> 00:01:36.090 online. 00:01:36.090 --> 00:01:40.660 You'll need to pre-record your narration, or (even better) plan to communicate on something 00:01:40.660 --> 00:01:43.150 like a conference call. 00:01:43.150 --> 00:01:47.530 Let's skip ahead to the end of the slide show. 00:01:47.530 --> 00:01:52.130 When you're finished giving your presentation, all you have to do is press Esc on your keyboard. 00:01:52.130 --> 00:01:57.490 Then click the button here to End the Online Presentation, which will disconnect any remote 00:01:57.490 --> 00:02:00.710 viewers who are still using the link. 00:02:00.710 --> 00:02:04.979 An alternative to presenting online is to save your slide show as a video, so viewers 00:02:04.979 --> 00:02:07.049 can watch it any time. 00:02:07.049 --> 00:02:11.900 These videos can be shared online, in an email, or even burned to a DVD. 00:02:11.900 --> 00:02:19.020 Everything you need can be found in the Backstage view... under Export, and then Create a Video. 00:02:19.020 --> 00:02:24.860 Start by clicking the drop-down arrow here to select the size and quality for your video. 00:02:24.860 --> 00:02:28.920 When making your selection, consider what you'll be doing with your presentation. 00:02:28.920 --> 00:02:33.570 If you plan on attaching it in an email, for example, the large file size of an HD video 00:02:33.570 --> 00:02:41.010 may be too big to send - in this case, consider choosing a setting with a smaller file size. 00:02:41.010 --> 00:02:45.379 Then decide if you want to use recorded timings and narrations - This will help make your 00:02:45.379 --> 00:02:47.889 presentation appear more polished. 00:02:47.889 --> 00:02:51.620 If you don't want to use recorded timings, you'll want to set the amount of time the 00:02:51.620 --> 00:02:57.459 video should spend on each slide here. 00:02:57.459 --> 00:03:04.439 When you're ready, click Create Video, and then save. 00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:08.969 You can keep an eye on your progress using the status bar at the bottom of the screen. 00:03:08.969 --> 00:03:15.400 When the bar is completely filled, your video is ready to view, send, or upload. 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.200 One of the last things I'd like to show you is how to tailor your presentation to different 00:03:19.200 --> 00:03:20.519 audiences. 00:03:20.519 --> 00:03:24.329 I'll do that by going to the Slide Show tab to create a Custom Slide Show. 00:03:24.329 --> 00:03:29.699 This feature comes in handy if you have to give your presentation to more than one group. 00:03:29.699 --> 00:03:33.760 Creating different versions can help you adapt to things like having less time to present, 00:03:33.760 --> 00:03:37.790 or each group having different needs or expectations. 00:03:37.790 --> 00:03:43.359 Just click Custom Shows, then New to create one for the first time. 00:03:43.359 --> 00:03:49.340 Give the show a name - for example, "Short Version." 00:03:49.340 --> 00:03:53.761 Then identify the slides you want to include in your custom show by selecting them... and 00:03:53.761 --> 00:03:55.920 adding them to the list on the right. 00:03:55.920 --> 00:04:00.360 I'm just going to add a couple more. 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:06.129 You can even change the order of the slides using the arrows here. 00:04:06.129 --> 00:04:12.930 When you're done, you can choose Show to view your custom show right away, or Close to exit. 00:04:12.930 --> 00:04:16.940 From videos, to presenting live... 00:04:16.940 --> 00:04:21.269 PowerPoint gives you many ways to share your presentation, and meet the needs of your audience 00:04:21.269 --> 00:04:22.770 - including the viewers at home.
