Powerpoint Animation
An animated background in a PowerPoint presentation can be great for several reasons:
It can attract and retain the attention of the audience, especially if the animation is relevant to the topic and not too distracting.
It can enhance the visual appeal of the presentation, making it more engaging and memorable.
It can create a mood or atmosphere for the presentation, such as excitement, curiosity, or calmness, depending on the type and speed of the animation.
It can highlight a key point or message on the slide, by moving the background to a specific part of the image or using a contrasting color or effect.
However, you have to use animation wisely and sparingly, as animated backgrounds can also have some drawbacks, such as:
They can slow down the performance of the presentation, especially if the animation is complex or the file size is large.
They can clash with the text or other elements on the slide, making it hard to read or understand.
They can distract or annoy the audience, especially if the animation is too fast, flashy, or repetitive.
Therefore, it is important test them before presenting to ensure they work well.
