In this “Three Minutes Max” video, Jole Simmons shows how to create a composite using videos and photos to craft one coherent scene right inside of PowerPoint. By playing with shading, masking, and edge effects, he blends the multiple elements into one and gives his slide added visual interest.
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
