How to Narrate Presentations Adding Audio to Google

How to Narrate Presentations Adding Audio to Google Slides or Microsoft Power. Point

Here you will learn how to: 1. Add Audio to Google Slides using an Audio App/File 2. Add Audio to Microsoft Power. Point 3. Add Audio/Video using Screencastify (works for both Google Slides and Microsoft Power. Point) 4. Add Audio/Video off your Phone

First Steps Create Your Presentation without audio. Add your text, images, gifs, videos… and all other “bells and whistles”. Create some talking points or an outline of sorts. Which slide or slides do you want audio on? What do you want to say? Do you want to just read what’s written or are you going to be providing more detail than what they can see? *You don’t need a script (I never seem to use one), but a checklist of some kind is helpful.

Add Audio Using an App/File I only use an App for adding audio to Google Slides My favorite App is: If it works on your phone that is : ) Then I recommend going to Settings and change the Format to. wav as it seems the most compatible. From there you can record, play it back, and upload it to your Drive.

Add Audio Using an App/File Cont’d Now that you have your file AND your Google Slide, how do you get the audio onto your slide? INSERT AUDIO FIND THE FILE ALTER IT TO FIT YOUR NEEDS

Adding Audio to a Microsoft Power. Point (No Internet Necessary!) INSERT AUDIO (ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT) RECORD AUDIO (You can browse or upload a file BUT the best option--if you have audio capabilities--is to record right there in Microsoft Power. Point)

Adding Audio/Video Using Screencastify is a fantastic way to create a Video of you narrating an entire Power. Point for online instruction or for Students to create Presentations for Online Classes. *You can make a Screencastify video of anything-as you have seen since it is all I have been using for all of my tutorials *Sadly, I do not know how to make a Screencastify of myself using Screencastify OR have the patience to do a voice over recording, but this shared video easily explains how to use it. FYI: I have “Screencastify Unlimited” so I can use the Editor section and am not limited by video length or video quantity

How to Get & Use Screencastify (Basic) If you already know basic & want help on how to use Editor to crop, cut, convert videos into other places. . . then please let me know. *How to upload a Screencastify Video is the same as a regular video that is saved to your drive.

Is There Screencastify for Phone Screens? YES! This is wonderful if trying to show to do something off your phone. EX, Google Classroom on a phone looks different, so if you describe how to find something on a computer many students won’t be able to follow those directions when using their phones… There are many more options, but this is the app I have used for the few phone videos I took. Or. . . Ex, here’s an app I highly recommend called “Happy Not Perfect” and here’s my using this app to show students how to use this app : ) The students loved my commentary haha
