All you need to add to your existing Powerpoint presentation (e.g. Ppt_HannahM.ppt) are two more slides.
- a slide with two animated objects with one of them timed to begin "with previous" and delayed by 1.0 seconds
- a slide with three animated objects - use the Advanced Timeline
Be sure to give each slide a descriptive title, such as "Three animated objects - using the Advanced Timeline" and put your name on each slide.
In the earlier animations lessons, you learned to control animation timing by playing effects together or one after the other. You also used speed settings such as Fast and Slow.
This lesson discusses additional ways to start animations, mainly by using time delays. A time delay allows you to start an effect a certain number of seconds after another effect has started, and before it finishes. The result is an overlap of effects—they don't have to be completely simultaneous or sequential.
Also, you will learn to use the Advanced Timeline to synchronize animation timings and set animation speed.
After completing this lesson you will be able to:
* Create overlapping effects by using time delays.
* Learn different ways to create time delays, and explore other timing options.
* Use the Advanced Timeline to get a new view of an animation sequence and adjust how effects play together.
