Powerpoint - Candy Analysis
Fun Stuff - Animate Sources

What should I do? How do I do it?

Add animation to your Sources slide so it looks more like movie credits. 

Make sure it's still readable. Hint: You might need to change the speed to slow down the animation.

 
  1. Open your Sources slide.
  2. Click on your bullet points to select them.
  3. Go to Slide Show > Custom Animation
  4. In the Custom Animation task pane, click on Add Effect and then on Entrance.
  5. Choose an animation effect - click on More Effects to see all of the animation options available. Find one that looks like movie credits!
  6. You can change the speed of the animation using the Speed Dropdown for the animation.
  7. You probably also want to change the Start option from On Click to With Previous. This will automatically run your animation when the slide displays. If you don't change this then you will have to click to display the sources.

Still confused?

You can see a video tutorial on how to add animations at:

http://video.about.com/presentationsoft/PowerPoint-Animations.htm 

You can ignore the part about opening the presentation since your presentation should already be open. NOTE: There may be a commercial before the actual video starts.

Do you have animations on your Sources? Then, Save Your Presentation and continue with Fun Stuff - Transitions
