Let's Use Power Point for our visual tours.

How To Add YouTube Video Into PowerPoint 2007 - YouTube

We're going to start by looking at some clips. PCTech 1989 has this seven minute how to, but you have to be online to see the movie, it's embedded via You Tube, and what I want to do is to use Power Point to share my video with You Tube.

This shows that I could upload my clip to You Tube, get a working URL and imbed it into Power Point, and that may be the way to go with it, but let's look at some more clips....

Here Computerbasics is going to show us how to take PowerPoint slides, to take them, save them as jpegs and inport them into Windows Movie Maker and publish it on YouTube, with audion and transitions.

gclearnfree has this offering: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ECourN9iW0 this is more like it. This is what I am interested in.

Now this is kschoppa's quick insert, but then he takes it to the next leve, he shows you how to pack multiple video files into one folder and shows how to pack your presentation and all the files in one publication, so it opens and runs like the Presentation you want it to: inserting a movie clip into your power point.

OK. I'm bored with this, I'm going to go and look at Windows Movie Maker and get started - but first let's look at Slides.com.... They have a nice still slide show. Wonder if they'll let you add film clips?
