Slide design is something of an art, and there are a lot of elements to think about when designing your slides: colors, fonts, animations, transitions, photos, templates and masters. But don’t be overwhelmed! Our guide to design is here to help.

This masterclass teaches you how to create content, format objects easily, set consistent styles, and apply images. It also explores layout, ways to communicate with design, and opportunities to go beyond the slide. You’ll see many examples of visual communication that you never thought possible in PowerPoint and learn how you can create beautiful and impressive presentations yourself.
