I want to run a slide show with on powerpoint to the rhythm of mus

[Powerpointhelp]

Does someone know how to customize a slideshow on powerpoint that will be
animated with the rhythm of the music that I have inserted?

With an extreme amount of patience. I've always played the music and then
attached the appropriate timing to transitioning to the next slide. Not all
the transitions will be the same based on what animations you may have going
on in a particular slide. It's a step-by-step, slide-by-slide process but
can be done very nicely. Also remember your timings may be off on different
computers based on their memory and processing speed. Good Luck!!

Thanks Rich. Is there a way to automate this process? That seems like a lot
of work and maybe not so accurate?

 

[Rich]

I know it does sound like a lot of work and I've not been able to find any
easy way to get the beats and the rythms to be precisely choreographed with
the show. In the slide sorter view, you can highlight all the slides and
attach a slide transition timing to them all at the same time. If for
instance every 5 seconds you need to transition to another slide than that
route might work for you. But I've done a lot of timing programs and
although it's a lot of work, it actually can be quite accurate.

If your presentation is photos and not text, see if Movie Maker will do what
you want.
