Is it complete playlist or more videos will be added ?

I would like to know how to do it. As when you reduced the view of thé slide it is Like a web. PLEASE Could I have an email to send you the slide? Thanks

[@DebGypsyOwlBryan]

Thank you! Game changer. Appreciate your tutorials.

[@rigvedgirkar7817]

Which version do u use? I cant get any of those animation options on my powerpoint 2007

[@ourjourneytohope]

Kevin, I am a retired teacher of teachers and I want to compliment you on your teaching methodology. You give a good intro including overview of your presentation. Your pace is good and voice is clear. Keep up the good work!

He is simply the best. I go for other tutorials ONLY if I don’t find them on his channel

The ability to teach people is a skill the majority lack. Your style is clear and informative. You are one of the few that know how to teach and keep your audience. Thank you for this video.

This is undoubtedly the best animation tutorial i’ve seen. You are obviously very knowlegeable and on top of that you are a great teacher! Thank you so much for sharing what you know.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial - it was very cool - I work in PowerPoint for a living and you have definitely improved my skill set. You are a great teacher!

[@HayDayPhoebe]

Thank you, Kevin. You are by far the best at tutorial videos. You go from point a to b to c whereas so many tutorials will go from a to g and skipping b, c, d, e, f. Thorough steps in tutorials get revisited many times.

[@1mgofdota899]

The double exclamation mark thing for advanced morph is so magical, it made the whole video worth it to watch. Also the repeat option for emphasis animation... Thanks Kevin.

[@kirbynamora]

Thank you so much! These animation tutorials will definitely help in making presentations more interesting.

Awesome tutorial! Clearly spoken, at the right pace and loads of great tips!

[@norsyuhadarazak9650]

I'm in my final year in university right now. Learning online really require us students to become more creative in presenting our projects. I have an online portfolio to be presented in a creative way and looking forward to use animated powerpoint as the medium. Thank you sir. I really appreciate this tutorial!!

[@remisemindmusic]

This video is one of the most productive videos I have ever watched on PowerPoint animations... You have pumped more knowledge into my head than I expected... bravo and kudos👏... How to make 3D animations with a voice over👈 I need to learn it so badly man!

[@bencortestv23]

It blew my mind. I didn't have any idea how powerful the PowerPoint is before I watched your video. It was so cool. Thank you so much, Kevin. I subscribed your channel already. Thanks again. I want to watch more videos like this.

[@ejeremeciahill]

you're such a great instructor!! I really like how you speak slowly and even repeat certain instructions a few times while going through them. Thank you sooo much and keep up the GREAT work!

[@brahimaarab9941]

Best PPT animations overview ever ! Thanks a lot Kev

[@jspoosener6729]

I so appreciate this. You are clear, precise and well paced. Thank you so very much!

[@jamescooper605]

Just want to say that this tutorial is the best that I have seen for an overview of animation. You deliver the message with clarity and speed. Fantastic job! I would like to see even more advanced methods involving multiples of text boxes and shapes all layered on top of each other on the same slide. I sometimes have had to drop in a white box over certain images so that other graphics don't display while I am trying to show something else. I am sure that there is a better way. Great content and keep it coming thanks.

[@chithraradhakrishnan9164]

Your are really a genius. You was working in Microsoft but you learned. Without having interest and knowledge you would haven't learned anything. It's purely your own interest and knowledge. I really admire you. Please keep sharing the knowledge and explore many things. I have learnt many things from you and I used to my professional life also I got appreciation for that. Thanks a lot Kevin 🙏

[@angelabynum1247]

Thank you for all of your informative videos. I recently recommended your channel to some colleagues in Professional Development session that I presented. I learn so much as I watch your videos. My students will be so excited when I use the animations. Thanks again for all of your awesome work.

Thanks kevin! this was more than enough for me to complete my academic assignment 😍

[@bradsommers8627]

As many of the other commenters have stated, very well done. Perfect for what I'm working on now as I use a number of circles in my presentation to represent people who must move into and out of different formations.

[@Anne95511]

Thank you so much Kevin, this is another great video. Had a day off but got so inspired I will be working after all :-)

Amazing! Loved every minute. Learned a lot! Thanks so very much!

[@malidinar]

Kevin, you are the best instructor I have ever had! You are so thorough, patient (not moving & speaking fast), and possess a great voice & enunciation. I would greatly appreciate some guidance in two areas. First, I have a problem with Cortana constantly popping up every few minutes, sometimes seconds...its so annoying and I cannot delete Cortana or control it. I would love for you to explain why it is so invasive and how I can stop it. Also, I really need a good voice changer for my video projects (not games); you touched on VoiceMod, but is that the best? I cannot find a decent tutorial on VoiceMod or anything similar, can you help?

[@tubetubepleasure]

Kevin, thank you for your tutorial. It is amazing, you have included so many ways that the PowerPoint can do. Thank you

WOW! That was a lot of good information in a relatively short amount of time! (I did watch at 2x, but I still think the video was ideal pace because I didn't get lost at all). It feels weird to say... but I'm legit excited to do more with PowerPoint now! Thanks for making this video!

Wow this was incredibly useful information, thank you so much! I especially loved the bit on the stock photo with the mountains, I had no idea i could do that on PowerPoint, I have so many ideas for my photography now!!! Do you have any videos on using drawing and text together in animation form?

[@Kaz-nf4ns]

Thanks heaps, Kevin! You blew my mind away with your awesome tutorial (there were a few wows along the way). You went through point by point (greatly appreciated and lacking with other tutorials), showed so many techniques and I'm now hooked on the Morph feature! Brilliant content.

[@DissertationAcademy]

All my Uni and YT channel powerpoints are colourful and animated, and I know a great deal about animations. But I still watched the entire video (while doing my weekly ironing 🙃🤭) and still learned a trick or two. I will be passing on this video to the learning support centre of my university to be added to the resource list and also send it to colleagues in my faculty. It is the best introduction to animations I've seen.
