How to convert a Powerpoint presentation to video?

Question

I have some Powerpoint presentations I want to convert to videos (with sound) so that I can post them on the web (like Youtube). Does anybody know of how to do this, what software I need?

Answer 1

Before uploading your powerpoint presentation to youtube, you will need to convert it to a certain format that youtube accepts.

YouTube accepts video files from most digital cameras, camcorders, and cell phones in the WMV, AVI, MOV, and MPEG file formats. But PowerPoint presentations are not video formats and Microsoft itself also doesn’t support the conversion. So we need third party software to complete this process.

When we do the conversion, we also don’t want to lose any voice, movies, animations and transitions in the original PowerPoint. The video converted should retain all the subtleties in the PowerPoint.

Acoolsoft PPT2Video Converter is designed to help you easily convert your PowerPoint presentations to stunning videos. With only 3 clicks, you can convert PowerPoint presentations to video formats such as MPEG, AVI, MP4, WMV, MOV and 3GP with excellent quality.

Answer 2

There are many ways for you to do this. You can first consider Windows Movie Maker, it comes free with Windows XP and Vista.

But you say there are sounds in the presentations. So maybe you can not use this tool.

There are some other software program you can use. these software programs can remain all sounds, anmations and dynamic elements from your presentations.

A, use PPT to Video. http://ppt-to-dvd.com/ppt-to-video-overv... Import your PowerPoint presentation in it then output the video. The format include to MPEG, AVI, MP4, WMV, MOV, 3GP

B, use PPT to YouTube http://ppt-to-dvd.com/powerpoint-to-yout... with this convertor, you can upload your PowerPoint presentation to YouTube.

C, use PPT2DVD http://ppt-to-dvd.com/ppt2dvd/overview.h...

All of this software has a free version.

Hope this can help you.
