In this segment of the video, the speaker explains how to create cinemagraphs in PowerPoint. Cinemagraphs are still photos with one subtle moving feature. Popular in apps like Photoshop and After Effects, the speaker demonstrates how to create them in PowerPoint version 2010 or later. They emphasize using the right video with a specific motion to work with. The speaker starts by using a video of a boy drinking water from Shutterstock, showcasing how to select the frame to freeze and isolate the desired motion, in this case, dripping water. This process allows for unique and accessible cinemagraph creation in PowerPoint.

In this segment of the video, the speaker demonstrates how to create a cinemagraph using PowerPoint. They begin by trimming the video to a specific duration and taking a snapshot of a frame. Then, by cropping the water in the image and copying it onto a new slide, they start forming the cinemagraph. The process involves adjusting the trimming to capture the motion of the water effectively. The speaker emphasizes the importance of having over a second of motion and setting the animation to loop seamlessly.

In this segment of the video, the presenter demonstrates how to create a cinemagraph using PowerPoint. They recommend exporting the cinemagraph to a video format for smoother playback. Transition timing control is advised, adjusting it to match the loop duration. Compressing the video file is suggested to manage file size efficiently. The video can be reinserted into PowerPoint for use in presentations or converted into a GIF file, using an online converter like Jiffy. The presenter shows how to use Jiffy to create a GIF from the cinemagraph file, demonstrating the process step by step on the website.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses creating GIFs in PowerPoint and lists key steps for finding suitable videos for making cinemagraphs in PowerPoint. The main points include finding videos where the camera does not move, ensuring there is no other motion interfering with the desired motion, isolating motion in basic shapes, and choosing a section of the video that is loopable, like water running. These points are crucial for successfully creating cinemagraphs in PowerPoint.

In this segment of the video, the speaker emphasizes the importance of making the first frame a natural continuation of the last frame in creating loopable cinemagraphs. They suggest that while loopable pieces can be time-consuming to create, if not necessary for the video, it might be best to avoid forcing it. The viewer is encouraged to try this technique in their own projects and to consider recording their own video for cinemagraph creation. The speaker concludes by inviting viewers to share their creations and check out other related videos while encouraging likes, comments, and subscriptions.
