Are you ready to elevate your presentation game and capture your audience’s attention from the get-go? In this blog, we will explore a simple yet impactful technique using images and rounded rectangles in PowerPoint.
Crafting the Background
Start by inserting five images into your blank slides. One group of images will serve as the background, while the other will transform into circular thumbnails.
- Copy the images onto blank slides.
- Right-click on the first image, navigate to Format Background and choose Picture or Texture.
- Click on the Format Picture panel that appears on the right.
- Repeat the process for the remaining images.
Creating Circular Thumbnails
- Head back to the first slide.
- Insert a rounded rectangle and set the radius to the maximum.
- Duplicate the rounded rectangle five times.
- Select all the rectangles and adjust transparency to 0%.
- Play with the Quick Styles options for a sleek look.
- Set the light bar to 100%, adjusting the direction as needed.
- Group the rounded rectangles.
Arranging Elements
- On the first slide, set the aspect ratio of the second group of images to 1:1 (square).
- Position the images on the left side and adjust their placement.
- Set the size of the thumbnails on the first slide to 5cm and arrange them.
- Repeat these operations for the remaining slides.
Adding Text and Final Touches
- Insert relevant text for each slide to convey your message effectively.
