When it comes to designing images for social media, many people go in search of some new software applications that they can use to create their images. Yet, often times there is a powerful designing tool already in your possession – Microsoft PowerPoint. Not only can you use it to design images, but you can import media, photos, and videos into your PowerPoints and export those to images and video!
While this course is intended for designing with Pinterest-sized images in mind, it is also for anyone who wants to learn how to use PowerPoint to create video and images for any social media platform.
So what do you say? See you in the first lecture!
What you will learn
This course is a follow up to my first course where I taught how to create static images in PowerPoint for use on Pinterest. In THIS course, we take it one step farther – we turn those images into video.
From the course, you can expect to learn:
– How Video integrates into Visual Hierarchy
– Why Video Pins get more impressions
– An Introduction to PowerPoint Animations (useful for any presenter in addition to video makers)
– An Introduction to PowerPoint Morph Transitions and how to use them for video-making
– How to make an Animated Video from static image design
– How to embed video to a static image design to make a video poster
The course (like all Skillshare classes) is project-based. And when you are finished with the course, I invite you to participate in the class project to demonstrate your new skills.
I look forward to seeing your creations!
Skillshare is an online learning platform where you can learn just about any Skill from professional online course creators (like myself). Most courses focus on learning a single skill, and are project-based.
