Morph Any Shape to Another Shape While Creating A Presentation – Change Shape

Using existing assets is almost always faster than creating something new, or worse, creating something, again, and again, and again. Everyone should know of PowerPoints CHANGE SHAPE feature! For example, we have created a rectangle with a custom gradient. Now styling is going to be rounded rectangles. Easy, just do this: 

Select the rectangle.

Change Shape 1

Under the Drawing Tools > Format Tab, click Edit Shape > Change Shape > Rounded Rectangle.

 

Change Shape 2

 

The rectangle will now be converted to a rounded rectangle. Done!

Change Shape 3

 

Repeat to convert all the already formatted, positioned and animated rectangles throughout the presentation to the updated rounded rectangle styling in minutes. Or, leverage that wonderful custom gradient by morphing the rounded rectangle to an arrow, or any other shape in the Change Shape library. 

Change Shape 4

Tip: All TLC Creative design computers have the Change Shape drop down menu on our QAT for even quicker design and formatting.

It’s A Bright Pink World Full of Animation!

Sometimes a presentation project is just all about the animation. In this case we were tasked with developing a 2+ minute motion graphics video to be used as a meeting opener, a short segment is here for preview. We developed the video all in PowerPoint, exported to video with a music track. It is not the tool that creates bad, boring and bland presentations – PowerPoint is just a canvas, and can accomplish wonderful results in the hands of professional design team.
