How do I add a flash movie to my PowerPoint presentation?

Asked By tom fredle 130 points N/A Posted on - 05/29/2011

Hello,

I am presenting some artwork and animation techniques, tomorrow at my school. I have them as .swf and my presentation slides as .ppt.

I have a plan of showing individual movies, (3 actually) in the middle of the presentation of different points. 

Just wanted to know whether it is possible to add the flash movies inside my presents. Please tell me how if it is possible.

It is definitely possible and there are a lot of ways to do this.

You can also make your whole presentation with Flash too. But you haven’t mentioned which version of PowerPoint you're using?

Thanks for the reply. I am using Office 2007.

I know that I can use Flash all over too but I only know some basic animation, using “GIOTTO”. Where can I get the templates for the presentation?

Well in Office 2007, you can add a Flash object easily. Enable the developer tab ribbon from PowerPoint options. Just go to the developer tab and click the “more controls” button. Drag to set the location of the Flash object.

When you are done with dragging, you should see some wizard like this:

When you are done by dragging, you should see some wizard like this:

Select Shockwave Flash object.

Later on the properties inspector, “right click” -> properties, set the movies field with the whole path to your Flash movie.

You are welcome.

You can even do it more easily with some third party tool like the Flip Builder PowerPoint to Flash Converter.

Good luck.
