Customizing Your PLR Videos with PowerPoint

Here’s a quick guide on how to change your PLR videos and make the unique to

you. These slides were created with PowerPoint 2013. Not all animations and

transitions will work with versions under 2010. You can still edit these and change

the type of transition you add.

Let’s get started.

First open the Slide file to your video, save it under a new name, this way you still

have the original files intact. For this tutorial I am going to use the Yoga Video that

was included in my latest Nutrition and Fitness Pack.

I simply named mine New Yoga for now.

This is the original slide:

If you like the image you may just want to keep this slide the same, maybe just add

your website URL to it. To do that do the following:

Go to Insert – Text Box – Draw a text box – Type in your URL.

You may want to change the font, size and color.

If you want to match the color from the main text do this:

Select the dropdown arrow for the Text Color box – click on eyedropper – select

the pink color – your new text now matches exactly.

Text Tips

A great feature of PowerPoint is the WordArt feature. This is a great way to make

your text stand out on your slides. Plus it’s much faster than trying to play with font

styles, sizes and colors. Perfect for making your PLR slides stand out!

Here’s how to use Word Art:

Go to Insert – Word Art – a drop down will appear – select a style

A new Text box will appear on your slide as shown below:

You can now edit the Text by using the Drawing Tools box in your ribbon.

Here you can change colors, fill the text with a different color.

To add your new text just highlight the words and start typing.

The text effect allows you to add a 3D look to it along with more features – just

experiment with them. The transform feature allows you to add curves to your

text. I used that one to show you in this slide.

In this slide I used different variations of Word Art to show you how you can quickly

change the look of your slides easily.

If you look back to the first slide you will

notice the Sound symbol – this is the

audio track.

You can keep it in place or exchange for

your own track. To change the track do

this:

Click on the Sound Symbol and delete

it

Go to Insert – Audio – Audio from PC

This Adds Audio Tools to your formatting tool bar

Here you can set the volume levels, fade ins and outs. Experiment to get the effects

that you like.

Audio Tips

It’s important to learn how to use these tools as they will affect how your slides and

videos will play during playback.

1. The Trim audio setting is extremely useful as it trims down your audio if it is

too long for your video.

2. Set the “Start” to “Play across slides” so the audio will be played throughout

the entire video.

3. If you want your audio to be looped for your entire video then click on “Loop

until stopped”

4. Select the “Hide During Show” so the audio icon won’t show up in your video.

5. Set the Fade Out setting so the audio won’t stop of all a sudden at the end

of your video. I usually set it for a few seconds so the audio will be slowly

fade away by the end of your video.

6. For the volume I select the sound level depending upon the type of video.

For this Yoga video I would want a softer music playing so I would set the

volume lower. For something more upbeat then a bit loud would work best.

Again experiment so you get the feel for how things work. If you totally mess

something up you still have the original slide so you can start again!

Here’s the next slide:

So maybe you don’t like the pink background and you want to add some text.

To change the background of this slide you would do this:

Click on Design – Format Background

Page 8: Customising Your PLR Videos Using PowerPoint

Here you can select the type of fill you want to use the color and the transparency

level. The transparency level works well to lighten the color.

If you want a full picture image as your background, just select picture – where the

arrow is – and upload one from your PC. This way the image will fit perfectly on the

slide.

Changing Images

To change the image simply click on the image and the Picture Tools will appear in

your top ribbon.

What’s nice in the newer versions of Powerpoint is that there is now a Change

Picture icon in your tool bar:

This allows you to change pictures so that they fit perfectly again, no messing

around with sizes etc.

So you can now go through the templates and add text by using Text Boxes, add

additional images, changing colors and more. Just remember that as soon as you

click on any element a new Tool Box will open in your top ribbon. Once you get into

experimenting with things you will find it really easy to change the look and feel of

your slides.

Don’t forget to brand them with your logo, if you have one, or use your brand colors

or theme. This way your customers and readers will recognize your videos.

Animations and Transitions

This can get really long winded so I will keep to the basics here for you.

Animations help to make your slides stand out. PowerPoint has several animations

that you can use, depending upon your version. Common effects are those when

the text slides in and out, or zoom or twist.

To add animation:

Select the text or object – click animation from the top ribbon.

A gallery will appear which has different animations – select the one you want by

the Effect you are looking for. Again test and play with different ones to see what

works best.

In some of my PLR slides I have set animations for you. They will appear as numbers

when you click on the Animation Tab as shown below:

As you can see this particular slide has 3 animations.

By clicking on the number you can see what type of animation was used. So it’s very

easy to select another effect.

Here I used the Float In style.

A transition is the effect that goes in between each slide. By clicking on the

Transitions tab you will see which one I used for each slide. Either keep it as is or

change it. Try out different effects and see what you like best.

Before attempting to save your slides as a video or slide show, use the playback

feature inside PowerPoint and ensure that everything is timed the way you want it

to be. Do one last check for spelling mistakes and check that you have included

your URL.

Exporting Your Video

This is where a lot of people get stuck. How you change your slides into a video is

going to depend upon which version of Powerpoint you have. With the newer

version, 2013 it is simply is a matter of Save As – MP4.

In earlier versions this is what you need to do:

Go to File – Save & Send – Create a Video – Select Quality and Save

In 2007 versions and earlier the process is a little more involved.

Because you will be saving your slides into JPEG’s the transitions are not going to

carry over. You can add these at a later point.

To Save as a Video you will need to do this:

File – Save As – Other Formats – JPG – select Every

You are going to turn each slide into a picture image first. PowerPoint will save

them inside a folder.

Then you need to export these into Windows Movie Maker and create your video

there. You will also import the music file I gave you as well.

Open up Windows Movie Make and click to select your slides. Select them all and

import them as shown below:

Do the same with the music file and that will be added directly to your slides.

If you were to play your file now you will see that there are no transitions in

between the slides. So here is where you want to add those. Try out several

different transitions to see what looks the best. You also have Pan and Zoom effects

Page 13: Customising Your PLR Videos Using PowerPoint

that you can use. You can use the same effect across all slides or mix and match

them up.

Clicking on the Animation tab will bring up this tool bar.

Once you have your video playing as you wish it is now finally time to save it.

Click File – Save Movie – Recommended for this project – Save

You can directly save it to YouTube but I like to save it to my desktop first just to

make sure it plays correctly. Then upload it to my channel afterwards.

So there you have how to change your PLR slides and turn them into a video. If you
