• Save the video to a file share site like Windows Live.

Tips recording your presentation as a video:

• record and time voice narration and laser pointer movements in your video.
• include animations and transitions in your movie.
• viewers do not need to have PowerPoint installed on their computers to watch it.
• if your presentation contains an embedded video, the video will play correctly without your needing to control it.

Depending on the content of your presentation, creating a video may take some time. You can continue to use PowerPoint while the video is being created

View a Presentation on the Web

The Broadcast Slide Show feature in PowerPoint 2010 enables presenters to share a slide show with anyone, anywhere, over the Web. You send a link (URL) to your audience, and then everyone watches a synchronized view of your slide show in their browser.

Choosing a broadcast service The Broadcast Slide Show feature requires a network service to host the slide show. You can choose from among several services, including a SharePoint server within your organization but for this course we will use the PowerPoint Broadcast Service. This service is available to anyone with a Windows Live ID. Anyone on the Internet will be able to access the URL for a slide show hosted on this service.

Before you broadcast your presentation:

• The presenter and audience need to be connected to the Internet. The broadcast slide show feature can be viewed in the Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari for Mac browsers.
• There may be a limit on the file size for broadcasted slide shows depending on the broadcast service
• Some PowerPoint features are changed when the slide show is broadcasted online:
  • all transitions in your presentation appear as Fade transitions in the browser
  • audio (sounds, narration) is not transmitted to the audience through the browser
  • you can’t follow a hyperlink in your presentation to a Web site, the attendees will only see the last slide you showed in the original presentation
  • you can’t run a video in your presentation, the browser does not show it to the audience.

  Aside from the traditional method of sending a PowerPoint presentation to others as an email attachment, you can also upload and share your presentation from the cloud. All you need to get started is a OneDrive account. Here’s how.

  Sharing Your PowerPoint Presentation

  You can save a PowerPoint presentation to the cloud fairly easily. In fact, it takes only a few simple clicks. For this to work, though, you’ll need a OneDrive account. If you use Office 365, then you already have one. If not, all you need to do is create a Microsoft account and then sign in to OneDrive. This article will assume you already have a OneDrive account.

  First, open the PowerPoint presentation that you’d like to share. At the top-right corner of the window, you’ll see a “Share” button. Go ahead and select it.

  

  Once selected, the “Share” window will appear. You have a few different options here. In the “Attach a copy instead” group, you can choose to send your presentation as a PowerPoint or PDF attachment. Selecting either of these options will open your computer’s default mail client.

  What we’re interested in, though, is sharing to OneDrive. To do this, select your OneDrive account under “Share.”

  

  If you haven’t already named your presentation, you’ll be prompted to do so. After you give it a name, click “OK.”

  

  Your presentation will now be uploaded to the cloud and the “Share” pane will appear on the right-hand side. This is where you can invite people to edit (or read) the document. In the address bar, enter the email of the recipient. Alternatively, select the icon to the right of the address bar and select a recipient from your Outlook address book.

  

  After you’ve entered the recipient’s email, you can then assign a permission level. Once you’ve given read/write or read-only permission, you can then add an optional message. When you’re ready, click “Share.”

  

  The recipient will receive an email providing access to the presentation.

  Note: If you’re the recipient, be sure to check your spam folder! During our testing, we found the invitation in spam.

  An alternative method for inviting people is to get a sharing link. At the bottom of the “Share” pane, select “Get a sharing link.”

  

  Next, choose which type of link you’d like to provide. You can choose between a read/write link or read-only link.

  

  A link will then be generated. Select “Copy” to copy the link to your clipboard.

  

  Anyone you share this link with will then have access to the presentation. This will allow multiple people to collaborate on your presentation in real-time!

  This article describes how to broadcast a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation for use in conjunction with a Field59 live stream.

  The Broadcast Slide Show feature in PowerPoint 2010 and PowerPoint 2013 editions enables you to share slides over the Web using the PowerPoint Broadcast Service. By iframing a PowerPoint URL onto the same Web page where you use a Field59 live stream event player, you can show slides to viewers as they watch the stream.

  In order to use PowerPoint Broadcast Service, you must first have a Microsoft/Windows Live ID account. You also need to be connected to the Internet in order to use this feature.

  Please also note the following:

  • The broadcast slide show feature can be viewed in Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Safari browsers.
  • Due to the nature of HTTP live streaming delivery, your slides may be up to 30 seconds ahead of the video feed.
  • Some PowerPoint features are changed when the slide show is broadcasted online:
    • Any transitions in your presentation are shown as Fade transitions in the browser.
    • Screensavers and email pop-ups can disrupt the audience’s view of the slide show.
    • You cannot add ink annotations or markup drawn onto the slide show during the presentation.
    • If you follow a hyperlink in your presentation to a Web site, the attendees only see the last slide you showed in the original presentation.
    • If you play a video in your presentation, the browser does not show it to the audience.

    To broadcast your presentation, open your PowerPoint, then follow these steps, depending on if you are using PowerPoint 2010 or 2013:

    PowerPoint 2010

    If you are using PowerPoint 2010, on the Slide Show tab, in the Start Slide Show group, click Broadcast Slide Show.

    

    The Broadcast Slide Show dialog box opens. Click Start Broadcast.

    

    If you are not logged in with your Windows Live ID, you will be prompted to log in or create one first. After you are logged in, Powerpoint will generate a URL for you.

    

    PowerPoint 2013

    If you are using PowerPoint 2013, Click on the File tab, then click on “Share”, then “Present Online”.

    

    If you are not logged in with your Windows Live ID, you will be prompted to log in or create one first. After you are logged in, PowerPoint will generate a URL for you.

    

    Next, copy the URL. The URL will probably look something like this:
    https://broadcast.officeapps.live.com/m/Broadcast.aspx?Fi=asdf%qwerty%

    Put this URL into an iframe, such as:
