How To Animate Letters



in this video, we are going to see how to convert this sentence into a nice-looking slide like this. this istypically called typographic art or text art i'm not suggesting that you do itfor every slide, but slides which are high significance - when we are showingsome important concept - it is worth taking that effort. and trust methe effort is not much. so let's get


How To Animate Letters, started. first of all, i want to break thesentence into smaller pieces so i'm just going to cut this text and paste it into thebullets area. now i'm going to cut it into the pieces i want. once it is in thebullets we can convert it to a smartart. i'm using smartart as a quick method tochange this individual pieces and put


them into their own text boxes. you couldhave done this manually by copying pasting but i find this simpler. now thissmartart is purely temporary. i say convert to shapes. now these are individualshapes and i can ungroup them. while they are ungrouped i'm going to change manythings: remove unwanted fill color and the border and i'm going toput some text color. i don't need this text box so i'm going to delete it. this is the background of the slide.let's make it black so things stand out. i want to only focus on this world hungry andi want to hide all of them temporarily. this is done from selection pane available athome


select selection pane a better option would be hide all andjust enable this guy. i don't want it uppercase i'm just going to make it lowercase and increase the font size shift control greater than is a fast past way toincrease the font size. and i want this to be a chunky font so i'm going totake arial black. from a design point of view arial black is not a favorite fontbut this is just for demo purpose. now i have a picture showing some food. i copy that picture and paste it here and i'll send it to back this picture i'm going to arrange insuch a way that the food i want to show


through the font is overlapping. nowwhile the picture is selected i press shift and click on the text. both are selected.now we go to drawing tools format and choose intersect from here. intersectis a very powerful feature: it looks at the common area where both objects overlapand that part of the picture becomes part of the text. of course at this stagenow text is no longer editable. it has become a single image. now i say show all and hide the picture forthe time being move them around so that the picture doesn't overlap and then i sayshow all and arrange everything. and finally we get this nice lookingslide. so try this out yourself and
