5 Tips for Creating Animations & Transitions in PowerPoint

Adding animation to your PowerPoint slideshows can greatly enhance the experience you offer through your presentation. If you’re new to PowerPoint, follow these tips to get started with animations.

1. Transition vs Object Animations

One of the first things you need to be aware of when using PowerPoint animations is the difference between transition animations and object animations.

On PowerPoint, you can animate each object you add to your slides. While this can be useful when presenting key points in a presentation, you should try to keep object animations to a minimum.

You can also add transition animations to your slides. These animations help create smoother transitions between slides.

2. Time It Perfectly

Each and every animation you add in PowerPoint can be customized to your preference by setting times for the duration of the animation as well as adding delays.

It’s up to you to experiment with different settings to find the right time and delays for your animations. Try to keep animations short and sweet.

3. Stack Multiple Animations

Another useful feature of PowerPoint animations is the ability to stack multiple animations for objects. For example, you can add both entrance and exit animations for each object on your slide by stacking different animation effects.

Stacking animations can drastically increase the duration of your slideshow presentations so use this feature only when necessary.

4. Automatic vs Controlled Animations

Controlled animations offer a great advantage when you’re delivering specific types of presentations like product reveals and feature showcases. For example, if you want to talk about key points in your speech, you can use controlled animations to reveal those points one at a time upon your mouse click or using a remote.

You can also set your animations to play automatically so they flow through your slide presentations without having to click for each slide to start.

5. Keep It Simple

Overall, you should try to keep animations to a minimum and avoid using the more flashy animations in your presentations. For example, it’s perfectly fine to add a fade-in transition effect to your slides. However, adding flashing and bouncing animations may hurt your reputation as a professional.

Stick to the simple and minimal animations to make your presentations more entertaining and easier to look at.

Genially in a nutshell

How do I make a presentation interactive and how does Genially work? Find the answers to all of your slide-related questions here!

What’s an interactive presentation?

Interactive slides contain clickable hotspots, links, buttons, and animations that are activated at the touch of a button. Instead of reading or watching passively, your audience can actively interact with the content.  

Genially’s interaction presentation software allows you to combine text, photos, video clips, audio and other content in one deck. It’s a great way to condense more information into fewer slides. 

If you’re a teacher, you can share multiple materials in one single learning resource. Students can create their own projects using digital media and online maps. For business or training, try embedding spreadsheet data, PDFs, and online content directly in your slides. 

An interactive slide deck is more user-friendly than a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation or Google Slides document. That’s because you can break information down into chunks with pop-ups, labels, voiceovers and annotated infographics.  

The other benefit of interactive content is increased engagement. It’s easier to keep your audience’s attention when they’re actively participating. Try Genially’s presentation software and free slideshow maker to see how it’s better than other presentation websites. You won’t go back to standard presentation apps!

How do you make a clickable slide?

The best way to make slides clickable is to use Genially’s free interactive presentation program. Design your slide then apply an interaction. In a couple of clicks, you can add popup windows, hyperlinks, close-up images, games, animations, multimedia and other content.

How-To Geek

Forget the powerpoint app for animations, use powerpoint for the web instead.

The PowerPoint app animation pane can be... a pain!

Quick Links

Why the powerpoint app is bad for animations, why powerpoint for the web is much better, tips for using animations in powerpoint for the web.

Using PowerPoint's animations increases your presentation's professionalism and helps you to emphasize certain elements within your slides. However, compared to the online version of PowerPoint, the animation pane in the Microsoft 365 app is confusing, unclear, and difficult to manage.

The main drawback of the animation pane on the Microsoft 365 PowerPoint app is its lack of clarity. When you add animations, you are offered a mixture of symbols and icons that—unless you're a seasoned PowerPoint expert—are confusing and unclear.

As you can see in the screenshot below, there are numbers and vague icons to the left of each animation, and different colored boxes in varying positions to the right. And if you have animations grouped together, you have to click on the gray bar to see them individually.

What's more, to make changes to the animation—such as the timing or the type of effect—you have to click on the drop-down box and then decide which is the best option (from the many available) to take you where you want to go.

It's also not immediately clear exactly what each animation is when you glance at the animation pane—you have to take the time to hover over the animation in the pane or click on the description to remind yourself of what you've chosen for each element on your slide. And when you do, you're only given minimal details.

Finally, all of the above confusions become even worse if you have dozens of animations on each slide.

It seems that Microsoft recognized that the Animation Pane in the app was substandard, so they took the opportunity to improve these features in the web-based version of the program.

First, you don't have to decode the confusing symbols and icons anymore. The words On Click have replaced the mouse icon, the name of the animation (in this case, Fly In) has replaced the colored star icon, and the duration of the animation is also displayed (in the app version, you'd have to go through two clicks to find this important information). Microsoft has also done away with the pointless colored boxes that were supposed to tell you the timing sequence of the animations.

However, the best feature of the web-based workflow is that you can click on any of the animations in the Animation Pane to view more details, so viewing and changing your animation options is much easier than in the app.

After you've clicked on an animation in the Animation Pane, you can:

  • See and change the animation type.
  • Decide whether the animation should appear when you click or after a certain time following the previous animation.
  • Change the animation duration
  • Add a delay.

In the app-based version of PowerPoint, these options were all accessible via a lottery of drop-down options and dialog boxes, so the PowerPoint for the web's Animation Pane saves you time and presents everything to you much more clearly.

It's also much easier to add more than one animation to an item when using the web version of PowerPoint. Simply select the element you want to add another animation to, and click "Add" at the top of the Animation Pane. Likewise, you can easily delete an existing animation by clicking the trash icon next to the relevant item in the Animation Pane.

To animate an item that doesn't already have animations, just select the item on your slide and the same "Add" button will become active for you to click.

Overall, the web-based interface is much more user-friendly and a huge improvement on the PowerPoint app, especially when it comes to using the Animation Pane.

We have a few quick tips to know when you start using animations.

Reorder Your Animations

To reorder your animations in the Animation Pane, click and drag the animation card up or down via the six dots next to the relevant animation.

View More Animations

By default, the Animation Pane offers some of the more commonly-used entrance animations when you want to animate an item. However, to see more animations, click "View More Animations," which will show more entrance, exit, and emphasis animations.

Animate Items Together

To apply the same animation to multiple items on your slide, click the first item, hold Ctrl, and then select the other items. Then, click "Add" in the Animation Pane, and choose the animation you want to use. When you present your slideshow, all the items you selected will appear, exit, or be emphasized in the same way and at the same time.

Now that you can master animations on PowerPoint for the web, check out these PowerPoint tips to make sure your presentation is professional and easy for your audience to follow.

PowerPoint parties are still bringing friends together, one hyper-specific subject at a time

For McCall Mirabella’s 21st birthday party last month, she asked guests to bring only one gift: A PowerPoint presentation.

Mirabella, a TikTok and YouTube personality with over 1.3 million followers across both platforms, assembled her closest friends and asked them to present a slideshow on anything they could think of. The only criteria was “the sillier, the better.”

Her guests delivered. One attendee ranked the attractiveness of 10 animated characters while another humorously explored the disparate stages of being high. Mirabella herself presented her predictions for how long her friends would survive in the Hunger Games (and how they’d meet their violent ends , seemingly a popular template for a PowerPoint party).

Such are the delights of PowerPoint presentation nights, which boomed in popularity during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic but are still charming partygoers (this, in spite of its regular use in corporate offices the world over). Through a silly slideshow, groups of friends get to know each other’s niche interests, secret pastimes and frequently hilarious takes on their friends’ quirks and strengths.

Seeing the people she loves get worked up over assigning each other Taylor Swift songs that match their personalities or fictional crimes that would land them in prison is a joy specific to slideshow-centric parties, Mirabella said.

“They’re so unserious,” she said of PowerPoint nights she’s attended and hosted. “Most of the time, people are left crying from laughing so hard, or bent over wheezing.”

PowerPoint parties got popular during the pandemic, but they’ve delighted friends for years

PowerPoint nights involve little more than an HDMI-compatible TV, a slideshow and a willingness to razz your friends or reveal your hidden passions. The software itself is nearly 40 years old , and it’s since become a staple in many offices and classrooms, but the ingenious PowerPoint party turns the familiar tech into a medium for comedy and comradery.

The concept of the PowerPoint party was formalized in 2012, when three students at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, hosted a “Drink, Talk & Learn” event. Guests of these early parties had to show up with a presentation on the arcane subject of their choice, like the moral alignment of Sonic the Hedgehog character Shadow, per Buzzfeed News .

The theme steadily grew more popular and by 2018, more PowerPoint enthusiasts in the US had caught on. Soon, everyone from software engineers in Seattle to students in Boston were presenting slides on hyper-specific subjects to a small crowd, often with a drink in hand.

In the Harvard Crimson’s account of one local PowerPoint party, a student presented his argument for why King Claudius is the true hero of Shakespeare’s “Hamlet,” a divisive take if there ever was one. The presenter told the school paper that his zeal for the topic had been relegated to “a rant to my friends up until now. Finally, I can present it to strangers.”

When Covid-19 arrived in 2020 and millions of Americans isolated in their homes, virtual PowerPoint parties became a safe, distanced way for friends to update each other on their lives and provide much-needed levity. Groups separated by the pandemic shared their screens on Zoom or even rallied their housemates to turn an ordinary night in isolation into an opportunity for a private TedTalk.

Tantalizing snippets from these presentations landed on TikTok (users rarely spill the juicy contents of the slideshows beyond their uproarious titles),  inspiring other users to host their own get-togethers. The subjects are typically zany, lighthearted takes on the idiosyncrasies of a group of friends — like how they’d each fare during a zombie apocalypse — and minor passions or dubious theories like the “real” (read: fictional) reason the dinosaurs died .

Since the party format took off in 2020 (and has since amassed over 40 million views on TikTok under related hashtags ), TikTok users have tested crafty new variations of the typical slideshow gathering and polled users on different platforms, like Reddit , for unique suggestions for presentations. Take the host who ambushed their guests by forcing them to present someone else’s PowerPoint on a subject they knew nothing about, like the hapless friend who bluffed their way through a presentation on how to pick stocks. A group in Philadelphia creates slideshows for their single friends to catch fellow singles’ attention. One creative TikTok-er even came out to their family in a PowerPoint on Christmas.

Though Microsoft PowerPoint software isn’t a requirement for these presentations — competing services like Prezi, Canva and Google Slides are also popular — Microsoft issued its own advice for hosting a premier PowerPoint party. Among its suggestions: Take advantage of those wacky transitions so photos can boomerang across the screen and titles can disappear with a click.

Since her cousins introduced her to PowerPoint parties during a sleepover eight months ago, Mirabella’s presentations have only improved in quality and theatricality. Her recent Hunger Games-themed slideshow included multimedia elements like Taylor Swift entering the fictional arena for a brief halftime performance to break up the bloodshed. Her friends voted it the best presentation of the night.
