PPT Autoshape BG (5)

Depth creates shadows. So adding a drop shadow is an easy way to add depth to this background. Using a very thin gradient autoshape is all that was needed.

Here are the FILL EFFECTS settings to create the drop shadow (note I am using black, but not starting with a solid color, 40%, to create a “dark grey” that mixes with the other colors).

PPT Autoshape BG (4)

Using another gradient autoshape I created the title text area.

By having the more transparent area over the already darker right corner another sense of depth is created.
