Convert a PowerPoint Presentation to a Video

To turn a PowerPoint presentation into a video, first, open your presentation with the PowerPoint app on your Windows or Mac computer.

In the top-left corner of PowerPoint, click the “File” option.

Click "File" in PowerPoint.

From the sidebar that opens after clicking the “File” option, select “Export.”

Select "Export" from the left sidebar in PowerPoint.

In the “Export” menu, click “Create a Video.”

Click "Create a Video" on the "Export" page in PowerPoint.

To the right of the “Export” menu, you will now see a “Create a Video” section. In this section, you will define the options for your video file.

First, choose the quality for your video by clicking the “Full HD” option.

Click "Full HD" on the "Create a Video" page in PowerPoint.

You will see multiple video quality options. Select the one that you think works the best for you. Know that the higher the quality you select, the larger the file size of your video will be.

Select video quality in PowerPoint.

To include the recorded timings and narrations in your video, then beneath the video quality menu, click the “Don’t Use Recorded Timings and Narrations” option.

Click "Don't Use Recorded Timings and Narrations" on the "Create a Video" page in PowerPoint.

Select the “Use Recorded Timings and Narrations” option. If this option is grayed out, that’s because you don’t have any recorded timings or narrations in your presentation.

Select "Use Recorded Timings and Narrations" on the "Create a Video" page in PowerPoint.

You will now specify how long each slide appears in the video. Click the “Seconds Spent on Each Slide” box and enter the duration in seconds. By default, this duration is set to 5 seconds.

Finally, at the bottom of the “Create a Video” section, click “Create Video” to start making your video.

Specify the slide duration and click "Create Video" on the "Create a Video" page in PowerPoint.

Your computer’s standard “save” window will open. Here, select the folder to save your video in, type a name for your video, and click “Save.”

Save the video using the computer's standard "save" window.

PowerPoint will take you back to the main interface. At the bottom of this interface, you will see the progress of the conversion.

And that’s how you make your presentations available to a wider audience by converting them to a video format!
