How Can I Spice-Up My PowerPoint Presentations?

by James Liberty
4 replies
At one time, I heard of a great program called Adobe Ovation that looked really great for adding flare and professionalism to PowerPoint presentations.

(Adobe - Ovation)

But unfortunately, this program is no longer compatible with current versions of PowerPoint... and does not seem to run with Open Office Impress, either.

That said, what can I do these days to spice-up my PowerPoint (or Impress) presentations?

    Have you considered adding audio tracks to your PowerPoint Presentation? Feel free to PM me for additional information.

      James... In Office 2007 you have a lot of features at your disposal to do this. You can pretty much do anything you want with the text. It won't have that flash-esque presentation that Ovation did, but it won't have a boring look either.

      What version are you working with?

        Let's see, I purchased Ovation... and I think I also bought PowerPoint 2003. But then I realized that Ovation wouldn't work with the PowerPoint version that I purchased.

        Ovation was awesome, because it created these professional-looking video backgrounds... I'm wondering if I should now just go buy an old version of PowerPoint.

          You know... that may be your best option as long as you are not using Vista. I'm not certain how pre-2003 versions of Office act on Vista. If you are using XP though, you should be able to just go to eBay and get a cheap used copy.
