Subtitles of the Movie

Alright. We've started a new presentation and the next logical step of course would be to add some additional slides. So we'll go over some of those concepts here in this module and we'll start with the new slide buttons that's on the standard toolbar. Pretty self-explanatory. Give it a click and the next type of slide in your slide masters will be added. This one happens to be a title with bullet point text or you can also use these buttons down here to insert tables, charts, clipart files and son on. We'll cover those topics in just a moment. But for now, we want to just keep our focus on adding and manipulating and rearranging the new slides. We'll also talk about why this is the next slide to be added after a title slide. But for now, again, we just add one simply by clicking that button. We can repeat the process over and over again. So we'll give this a title in fact of Second Slide, something like that and then they are rearranged very easily with just a drag and drop operation. I can drag this up, I can make this the first slide or the second slide or the third slide in my presentation very easily. I can also duplicate slides. I can do a Control click operation, which I've just done here and there's the keyboard shortcut. It's Shift-Command-D. And again, I have duplicated the slide. So the exact same content from here will be here. So again, I can rearrange that to my heart's content if I want to and so we've see how to add slides using the toolbar, how to do it using the command click shortcut or you can use the Insert menu if you're a menu type of person and you can choose New slide or duplicate slide. Now, something else that's interesting here is that you can pull slides from other presentations or you can pick from an outline file or a slide layout. I'll get into those a little bit later, but for now just know that if you've got a slide that someone has sent you, a presentation that someone sent you or you've worked hard on previous slideshows and you're going to use some of those slides as you continue to update that slideshow, click on other presentation and now you can do something like this. Let's find VTC here on my computer and you can either insert all slides or select slides to insert. I almost transposed those words there. So I'm going to select a few slides from my Office '08 Intro and now I will insert. Now it gives you a slide finder that looks like this and let's say I'm going to insert that. Insert and there it is and now I'm ready to close this. Now, notice what happens here. The theme is not copied over. Only the text from the slide and sometimes the graphics will get copied over but not the theme. So you won't have to worry about will this slide fit into what I'm doing right now? That's still a choice that you can make on the current presentation. Now yet another way to do this, to insert slides from another presentation is with a simple drag and drop operation. So if you like this slide and want to use it in your presentation, in your other presentation, let me switch back over to presentation 24, all you have to do is first kind of rearrange the windows as you see I'm doing here, but now I'm going to drag and drop. The reason why I had to rearrange the windows is because if it was the other way around and I would have made this active, it brings it to the top as you can see. But now I click and I drag and bingo. Once again I get the content from over here and the SmartArt that's been generated. What I don't get copied is the slide theme. This destination theme will match where I'm going, the presentation that I'm going to. So again, that slide's been brought over here. It matches the destination theme and now you have multiple ways. You think it's a simple topic, just inserting a slide. Yeah, I can figure that out. Click on new slide. But there's actually several options that are very interesting as you build your presentations.
