In PowerPoint is there any way to achieve Ken Burns effects, zoom.

[Guest]

I can't find the effect I want in custom animations. I want to zoom a
photograph and have it stay zoomed until I transition to the next slide.
There is grow and shrink and faded zoom, but I can't find a way to do the pan
and zoom of Ken Burns' effects. Is there any way to work around this, or any
place that I can obtain this effect, even if I have to buy it?

In PPT 2002/2003 you can Zoom in and Zoom out. You can
also use motion paths in Custom Animation to create the
pan effect.

Thank you, Sandy. I realize that this is a very dumb question, but exactly
how/where in PowerPoint do you zoom in and out? Could you explain? I really
appreciate it. I understand lots of the features; I can use custom
animations, but for some reason, I can't figure out zooming.

Hi Jenny,

Step by Step:

Select your picture, right click, Custom Animations.
Add Effect, Emphasis, Grow/Shrink, click the drop down arrow next to your
image name, Effect Options.
Set the percentage to the size you want and the timing to the speed you want.
Click ok.
Click Add Effect, Motion Paths, Custom Motion Paths, Line, using the mouse
draw a line starting OFF THE SLIDE to where you want the picture to end up.
In the Start: box, change On Click to With Previous.
Click Play to see if that's what you want.

You can play around with different entrances and motion paths until you get
what you want. the main thing is to have both the Grow animation and the
entrance (pan) animation occur at the same time.

Magician, Thank you very much for taking the time to explain the zooming
effect to me so thoroughly. I can't wait to try it!

My pleasure. That's why we hang out here.

Jenny, there really isn't any new news on this in the last week.

1) manual animations, as Glenna explained.

2) add-in http://officeone.mvps.org/zoom/zoom.html

Hello Glenna...

Just came across your post regarding " pan and scan" in PPT. Tried your
instructions, but I can't co-ordinate the two for love nor money. Invariably,
the image pans off the screen. I am trying to zoom into one area without any
black around the original image coming into play.

Also is there a way of copying the attributes of one slide and pasting them
into all of the images in multiple photos thereby eliminating having to do
each slide?

Many thanks
