PART 3: Save as a video file (required in order to upload the presentation to Moodle)

  1. On the 'File' menu, select 'Save' to ensure all your recent work has been saved in PowerPoint presentation format (.pptx).
  2. Click File > Export > 'Create a Video'.
  3. In the first drop-down box under the 'Create a Video' heading choose 'Standard (480p)' in the export settings. This reduces the file size and ensures that the file exports quickly and will upload more easily.
  4. The second drop-down box under the 'Create a Video' heading tells whether your presentation includes narration and timings. If you haven't recorded timed narration, by default the value is "'Don't Use Recorded Timings and Narrations"'. The default time spent on each slide is 5 seconds. You can change that timing in the "'Seconds to spend on each slide" ' box. To the right of the box, click the up arrow to increase the duration, or click the down arrow to decrease the duration. If you have recorded a timed narration, by default the value is "'Use Recorded Timings and Narrations"'.
  5. Click Select 'Create a Video'.

6. In the "'File name" ' box, enter a file name for the video, browse for the folder that will contain this file, and then click 'Save'.

7. In the " 'Save as type' box", choose 'MPEG-4 Video'.

8. You can track the progress of the video creation by looking at the status bar at the bottom of your screen. The video creation process can take up to several hours depending on the length of the video and the complexity of the presentation.

Tip: For a longer video, you can set it up to be created overnight. That way, it’ll be ready for you the following morning.
