Build anything using your imagination
- [Narrator] One of the things I used to dread as a designer was the client uttering the phrase, "You know what would be cool?" Usually it was followed by something ridiculous like, "If there were rockets attached to his desk "and the desk just kinda takes off." I now embrace these requests because what I learned is you can create almost anything in PowerPoint. Yes, I said it. All you have to do is visualize it and figure out what you need to make it happen. Alright, let's look at this example. A client asked for a slide advertising the annual Christmas party, and they wanna add some animated snow to it. The easiest thing I can think of offhand is to either find a stock photo of some snowflakes with a transparent background or create something in Photoshop just like this. Then we just simply animate it. Remember, if you can visualize it, you can create it in PowerPoint.
