Get The Message Out• First, make the slides• Then make the music• And now bring both together

Let’s start with the slides. To make these, we will simply use powerpoint.

1. Make as many slides as you need, including images and text.

2. Time your slides

Go to and choose the way your slides will appear at screen:

Now you can time your slides (for example, decide the first slide will remain on screen for 5 seconds, the second for 3 seconds, and so on):

Note that you can also add some animations to make some of the elements on screen appear a bit later than the rest or a certain way.

3. Save it as a movie

Go to fichier and click save as a video

You now have your images

1. Import the audio files you need.

Open Audacity and drop any audio file you wan to use on the grey area in the middle

Now is time to make the audio file. For that, I used audacity which is the best freeware you can find when working with audio files. It is available for both mac and PCs

2. Split and trim your files

Place the cursor wherever you need to split

Go to edit and click split

2. Split and trim your files

Then delete the parts you don’t need and put the ones you want to keep head to tail

3. When you’re ready save the file

Once you feel you’re ready, click on export

Note that even though Audacity is a freeware, it still has a lot of functionnalities and is very intuitive. You can use many different effects such as changing the tune or the tempo of the file pretty easily.

And now we’re ready to bring both files together. I personally use iMovie to do it but it is only available for mac OS. I’m confident there is an equivalent software pre-installed on windows (I remember having used one on windows XP).

This part doesn’t really need more explanations as all you have to do is import both files on your software and save the project once you’re done superposing them.

Hope you found this little explanation helpful. If you’re left with a question, feel free to ask.

AND DON’T FORGET TO MAKE IT STICK
