In The Club
Turn a PowerPoint presentation into a video
Run a club or society? Here's how your tech can make it easier
In a perfect world you’d always give a presentation live to all your club members, but it can be tricky to get everyone in the same room at the same time. As an alternative, you can convert your PowerPoint presentation into a video and make it available for members to watch (this option isn’t available in LibreOffice Impress or OnlyOffice).
This is a sensible thing to do for two reasons: first, it’s as live as you can get after the event, and you can even add narration to the slides if you want. And second, it turns the presentation into a file format that members who don’t have PowerPoint can watch. It’s quite a new feature though – you’ll need to be using PowerPoint 2019 (version 16.19) or subscribe to Microsoft 365 (version 15.23).
