Zamar+movie+on+Power+Point

To get a pdf version of my instruction sheet (complete with screen shots) to use as you need it, click on the directions below and the document will appear! [|First find a video that fits your needs.] [|Be sure to completely watch any video before using it with students.][|Now you will be able to put movies in your power points!] Once you have downloaded the file, you will need to go to ZamZar.com and follow the steps to convert the file to one your computer recognizes. I chose “wmv” Once your file is converted it will be sent to your email. You will need to go back to the ZamZar site and SAVE the converted file. You will only have 24 hours to save the file from ZamZar. Once the movie is downloaded, converted, and saved in a file you can successfully insert it into a power point presentation. Choose the “Insert” tab and then click on “Insert Movie.” Choose “from file” and browse until you find the converted movie file. Double click on the title of your movie and it will be inserted into the power point presentation. You can choose if you want to click the movie to play it, or have it start automaticall when that slide appears. Enjoy! If the movie only has audio and no sound, try a different format. My first try took 4 different conversions until I found the right one.
