How to make animated presentation clips from your footage

Reveal each idea with simple motion and hold the completed slide long enough to understand.

Start with the moments that tell the story

Bring exported slide images, exact labels and an existing presenter recording where needed. Pick the takes that make the subject clear, including a strong opening and a complete ending. These choices give Shorty a useful starting point for the edit.

Give Shorty the creative direction

Reveal each idea with simple motion and hold the completed slide long enough to understand.

Try a 45-second 16:9 edit as a starting point. Include the exact title or closing message you want on screen. Add a reference when you want to show the pace, captions or mood.

Create a 45-second 16:9 video from my exported slide images, exact labels and an existing presenter recording where needed. Reveal each idea with simple motion and hold the completed slide long enough to understand. Use my supplied wording for titles. Export slides to images first; a PowerPoint file is not an editable Shorty slide deck.

Make the next version more specific

Export slides to images first; a PowerPoint file is not an editable Shorty slide deck.

Play the first cut and pick the change that would help the story most. Name the moment, describe the result you want and tell Shorty what to keep. A note such as “hold the final product shot longer” gives the revision a clear direction.

Questions, answered.

What footage should I use?
