In this PowerPoint video, Steve Wishman shows how to add a “long shadow” style to text, all while keeping that text editable. By using PowerPoint’s built-in 3D tools, he is able to create this bold typographic look which can really make a slide’s text pop.
This video is an excerpt from Steve’s “Making Type Look Great in PowerPoint” session at CreativePro Week.
