Powerpoint Spice is the most amazing Powerpoint creator I have seen as she can make Powerpoint blur the line with Adobe After Effects in ways I have not seen in other Powerpoint techniques. Plus as you can tell she is a super person to share all of this.
Thank you so much! I am in the management consulting field. Actually, many prominent PPT people (authors, etc.) are former consultants because you end up working on a ton of slide presentations (and seeing a lot of slides from different companies too). My work presentations are a lot more "serious" though, which is why RUclips is an outlet for me to have fun, experiment, and share the interesting tricks I've learned with others.
I'm blown away by your creativity and your outstanding command of the application! I'm so glad I found your videos, and be paying very close attention to everyone of them! Thanks so much!
What a nice note - thank you, Duke! There are a couple of options to make that strip. The easiest is to make a long rectangle in the color you want your strip to be (in this case, white) and put squares of a contrasting color on top where you want your "holes" to be (black, in this case). Select both the strip and the "holes," cut, then paste as a picture -- they are now 1 layer. Go to format> color> select transparent color, & click on the black "holes" so they now become actual holes.
That's wonderful that you're trying to jazz up your presentations - I wish more educators would think like you! I'm glad that the tutorials are helpful - the best way to really get the techniques down is to practice doing them with your own projects as you're watching (or recreate the ones I do with the media in the description) - and if you have questions, I'd be happy to try to explain further. And you're right -animations can be done tastefully with no silly effects or sounds - good luck!
Thanks, Jim -- that's very kind of you! And it's wonderful that you're an entrepreneur. I think having your own business is one of the most rewarding and stimulating things one can do.
I thought you could only do this with motion graphics applications - what you have done with PowerPoint is awesome and inspiring! Thank you and keep up the great tutorials!
Thank you, Christopher, for the kind comment! I'm glad you've found the video informational and inspiring. And that's exactly my goal -- to show that PPT can do much more than most people realize!
Hi Faruq - you are exactly right! I make very good use of the replay button when I'm watching tutorials, even if they are at a normal pace, it's still hard to get from the first time. And I'm really glad that you think that my stuff is helpful -- I am also constantly trying to find tutorials for how to improve, so know how that feels! I try to make my tutorials the way that I would want to see tutorials myself. Thanks so much for watching and commenting - really appreciate it!
Now I can see we can do lots of things with powerpoint. Its because of your spicy videos, spicy explanations, spicy techniques to mesmerize the viewers mind. I have no words to appreciate the work you have done. I simply say Wow ! Wow! and Wow! Good luck.
Hello PPSpice, I have beating my head over lotsa websites trying to learn this stuff - but yours is a few light-years ahead of the rest. Awesome! A picture may be a thousand words but a You Tube tutorial is definitely like a few terra words at least :-). I know that it may look a bit too much to digest all at once but hey - that's what the replay button is for.
Thank you, and glad that you're trying to learn quickly despite being new to the program. Nice job! This tutorial is at a more advanced level than some of the others I have -- so I'd encourage you to check out those as well!
Thanks for the detailed explanation of the question (it's sometimes hard to answer questions when little context is provided). When you paste the "single-image" in, you need to line it up with the original (so don't delete it too early) -- do this by using copy/paste instead of cut/paste. Once you paste into "original slide," and line up, duplicate the slide.Now delete the NON-single image so that you're just left with the single-image perfectly lined up to the end state of the original slide.
+Powerpoint Pro Thanks! And sounds good - your videos are awesome! You have great artistic talent - I have to use premade images since I cannot create from scratch like you :)
That’s great that the other videos were useful to you as well! It is indeed amazing what you can do with simply PPT. To answer your q’s… I don’t use Photoshop - in fact, I sometimes try to show how Photoshop-like effects can be achieved in PPT (including in my next video). For some effects, I sometimes use MS paintbrush in addition to PPT as a workaround for earlier PPT versions (e.g., in the “reveal effect with moving background” video).
That's wonderful to hear! Yes, you're absolutely right in that PPT can do much more than most people think. A lyrics video will definitely be harder than my video, due to the syncing efforts, so best of luck with that!
That is unreal ! It would take me forever to figure that stuff out. I will have to watch this a few more times to get a grip on some of the animation tricks. I have to use Powerpoint to teach theory lessons in the military and the stock ones we have are so boring so I always try to jazz them up to maintain interest, yet still keeping it simple so as not to overwhelm them with stupid animations or sound effects for the sake of them. Thanx for talking the time to upload these videos.
I appreciate the reply. I can see it being hard to pinpoint since you're experimenting and deciding between effects and techniques. Thanks! I'm looking forward to learning more.
Hi there - thanks for the question and for so clearly explaining it (sometimes it's hard to understand q's if ppl don't provide the video time and exact challenge they have). When you rotate an object, it rotates exactly in the middle so if you just spin the circle as is, the rotation point is slightly above the O in "about" and it looks awkward (try for yourself and you'll see). Doing what I showed makes the object longer on the bottom and thus brings down the rotation pt. to exactly the O.
Thanks, Dika! Really glad you found this useful and enlightening. Hope you try some of the tricks here and in my other videos in your next presentation!
You are so funny - thank you!!! The truth is -- we can all be better, no matter what our level. There are so many people who are better than I am, and I'm always striving to get to their level -- so the goal is to keep searching for ways to improve from whatever level you are:).
You may have saved my life I need to create kinetic text for a class and I was so lost on what program I could possibly use... PP is the only one I have on my computer
Thank you! These techniques can actually be done by anyone with enough patience and understanding the "main principle" shown, so doesn't have to be out of your league :). Appreciate the comment!
Hi Supreet - thanks for the kind words, and I'm so glad that my videos have been helpful to you! Congrats on getting 2013 (I am still holding off because there aren't enough new features for me). Yes, in the future, I will try to keep my explanations slower in pace. For this video, I was having so much fun :) that I made the demo too long, so I had to speed talk through the tutorial portion as a result. If there are any particular places that were unclear, I'd be happy to explain further.
Thanks again for the question - while PPT doesn't have this exact effect, the best way to recreate it would be to use the same technique as I show in my "spinning objects" video. You would just "rotate" your object around the Y axis ONLY (not all 3) in PPT (which just tilts it backwards and forwards). You can get a preview of what this would look like to see if it's worth trying if you just select your object and increase/decrease the tilt level with the buttons. Hope that helps!
Hi Hugo - thanks for checking out the video! This one in particular might be a little challenging if you've never used PowerPoint before but check out my "easy flip effect" video - that one is probably a better starting point. Thanks for the comment!
Oh nice - very creative! Yes, I had considered something similar as well but then thought it would be too tedious to even suggest. If you had the patience, you potentially could do that in PPT as well (crop individual squares to make it look like the original).
Thanks, it is taken me over a year to write a written tutorial on it - still working on it! It's a lot of very simple effects put together in a pretty complex way, so it's challenging to explain. Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much for your video tutorials.They're presented in a step-by-step easy to follow format.I hope you will continue to make video tutorials.God bless!
Good question! You paste it on the next slide as a picture and shrink it by the same percentage as the shrink animation on the previous slide. Of course, you then have to make sure it all lines up through trial and error.
Hi Powerpoint Spice ! I love your videos and have watched all of them and think that your AMAZING at what you do !!! I just got powerpoint 2013 and i am trying to do all of this but my teeny tiny small miniscule request is for you to make another video like this but a tad slower. It was hard for me to keep up with everything you were saying and what was going on the screen. But keep up the great work ! Love your videos :)
Thank you, and that's a great question. What you're trying to do is to get the end state of slide 1 to look like the beginning state of slide 2. Duplicating the slide is a very good way to save time, but you still need to do more after you duplicate to make slide 2 look like the end of slide 1. In terms of steps, 1- duplicate slide 1 (to make slide 2). 2-See where slide 1 ends in pres mode. 3 - remove all animations from slide 2 and rearrange it to line up with end state of slide 1.
Your work is amazing. I'm trying to learn and re-create what you demonstrated, but I can't figure out how to make the small circles image that you use. Would you explain how to make that piece?
Thanks! What I did was to make the invisible box exactly twice the size of my object that I want to grow (actually its a spring). I position the invisible object so that its center was exactly over the edge of the spring that I want to remain fixed. Then I grouped the two and added the grow shrink animation to the group. I'm not sure if that is what you meant, but it worked perfectly!! Much easier than adding a motion path. Thanks!!
Hi.. and thanks so much for the prompt response, as well as offering a solution! I'll definitely look up your suggestion. In the meantime can't wait to see what you cook up next ! Best, Dave
Wonderful! Yes, a Shakespeare presentation is a great opportunity for some spicing up ;). I will definitely upload more -- it just takes me a long time to make them so I don't upload too often.
Brilliant video, just what I was looking for! I was just wondering though, Vortex transition isn't available on Powerpoint 2007 so are there any add ons or alternatives I could use?
Wow! what a talent!.. but for a beginner like me, its something i have to really work on to follow your tutorials... hope there's a written tutorials that i could have to guide me on the step by step instructions as seen in this video tutorials.. I really want to learn more... Thanks for sharing your knowledge. :)
Wheng Culit Hi Wheng - thanks so much! I am working on a written tutorial for this, but it's taking quite a while to make - will let you know when it's finished (hopefully in this century :)).
Excellent tutorial!! When you use the grow/shrink effect, it grows/shrinks from the center of the object. Is there a way of making it grow from the edge. Eg. making a box expand in size, but it is sitting on a table. You can do this by running a simultaneous movement animation in the opposite direction, but that gets tedious.
PowerPoint Spice I produce corporate sales presentations, mostly. After watching your video I included a kinetic typography segment in a recent proposal for an annual meeting presentation. I hope they go for it!
Laura Foley Oh very nice! The corporate world definitely needs more presentation gurus like you :). I checked out your channel, too - impressive! I would consider doing a demo kinetic typography piece as a sample deliverable, sort of like what you have in your other videos, so your clients can be wowed and request it -- you may even get new leads (I get a lot of PPT requests from this video, for example, though I unfortunately cannot fulfill them due to the time constraints of my other job :/ ).
Thanks for your questions! I'm not sure I understand your first question - could you please clarify? And are you using version 2010 or earlier? Yes, it's a bit of pain because there is not a way to show the end state unless you view in presentation mode (in PPT 2013, you can at least see the end state of motion paths, which is good). What I always do is take my best guess at the end state on the duplicated slide, the view in presentation mode, improve, view in pres. mode again, improve, etc.
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I managed to create an amazing cool slides by following the instructions from your videos. Love your tutorial so much. Never knew that we could do so much with ppoint. Appreciate your comments on the videos which I created on the link below. EVENT MANAGEMENT AND TRAVEL SERVICES CO. - MSY SERVICES, MALAYSIA
assuming you're talking about the "so" sequence --- after your make the circles in 4 pieces, you duplicate the slide and group them together OR just uncrop one of the 4 pieces so that you have just one --- to make it smaller, you use grow/shrink emphasis animation
Wonderful ideas, and greatly explained! Its an inspiration to do my very best to make more engaging ppt's for my students! By the by, how are you making this video's...? Thx for your hard work.
The only other thing I can think of other than removing it manually from each slide like you said is moving the bullets slightly to the right side in the master so that the 1st level now lines up with where the second level is in your current template -- you can even change the bullet type to match your current second level bullets.
+quitefranklybb Absolutely! While it's not quite as smooth and you're much more limited in features, but you can definitely still make VERY cool stuff in PowerPoint! By the way, I just released a new video about a Prezi-like new feature in PPT, which you may enjoy as well (gives you even more creative opportunities!).
Hi Ignacio -- yes, it definitely requires a medium to advanced level of ppt knowledge to do it, but great job on trying to watch anyway. If you have questions on it, let me know. I have some other videos that show tricks that are still very cool but much easier to do.
you are amazing thank you so much!!!! i love powerpoint and this is my first time doing something like this, but can you please tell me how you did the rectangles in the film affect? i made it till there but now i'm stuck... also i made a video of my own and it turned out realy great all thanks to you!!!!!!!!
Great job on your tutorial! Question for you on the basic layering slides. You mention in slide 2 that you split the circle shape. I was trying to look at this animation and maybe though it was an effect option. Did you happen to leave out a step where you might have split the circle into halves and then inverted them with animation? Just don't want to waste time looking for this type of animation if it was just something that you did behind the scenes. BTW, I am using PowerPoint 2013.
Hi there - thanks for the question! Yes, this video turned out to be very complex, so I didn't have time to show everything in depth in the time RUclips allotted, unfortunately. To split the circle, you have to first paste it as a picture twice (delete the original), then crop out half of it on each picture (the right and left respectively), then put the two halves together so it looks like a full circle.
Thanks so much! And no, I'm not really "sponsored" but just do it because I like to spread the word about how much fun you can have with PPT. Yes, PPT can have some of the same effects as Flash and Photoshop, if you're creative enough!
Here I was thinking I had almost maxed out all powerpoint could do and then I ran into your tutorials. WoW. Truly good work.
Powerpoint Spice is the most amazing Powerpoint creator I have seen as she can make Powerpoint blur the line with Adobe After Effects in ways I have not seen in other Powerpoint techniques. Plus as you can tell she is a super person to share all of this.
This is exactly the type of tutorial I need/was looking for.
Lots of concise instructions without the slack of the minute details.
Excellent.

Thanks, Jim -- that's very kind of you! And it's wonderful that you're an entrepreneur. I think having your own business is one of the most rewarding and stimulating things one can do.
This is SUCH a good tutorial - you get straight to the point and manage to cover all that in such a short space of time. Thanks so much!
+Nicole Downing Thank you Nicole! Really happy that you found it easy to understand - appreciate the comment!
I thought you could only do this with motion graphics applications - what you have done with PowerPoint is awesome and inspiring! Thank you and keep up the great tutorials!

Yes, you're right- if you try to sync it up with song lyrics, it's even harder (but looks so good after you're done)! Good luck with that project.
Thank you - really glad you enjoyed it! This took quite a while to make, so I was greatly hoping it would be useful to people.
Now I can see we can do lots of things with powerpoint. Its because of your spicy videos, spicy explanations, spicy techniques to mesmerize the viewers mind.
I have no words to appreciate the work you have done. I simply say Wow ! Wow! and Wow! Good luck.
Thank you, Abhivyakti! Appreciate the nice comment, and glad you've been enjoying the videos!
Really nice work. Thanks for showing the possibilities that exist with little 'ol PowerPoint.
Thank you! Yes, it does take quite a while to put everything together and sync it all up! Glad you enjoyed the result :).
Brilliant tutorial. You blow me away with what can be done in PowerPoint!
Barbara Felix Thanks Barbara - it's an extremely powerful program - with a little patience and creativity, you can definitely do a lot with it!

Yes, that's essentially what I meant -- adding invisible objects gives you a lot more control of the grow/shrink effects -- glad it worked!
That was a great tutorial; thank you very much. You are making me have faith again in PPT and I will start using some of your tricks. Thanks!
An absolute winner! And I like how you still reply to many comments. I would love to do a video with you when my channel is as big as yours :)
+Powerpoint Pro Thanks! And sounds good - your videos are awesome! You have great artistic talent - I have to use premade images since I cannot create from scratch like you :)

You are very welcome, and hope you have fun with these techniques!
Wow. That was phenomenal.So way far out of my league. Well done! : )
You may have saved my life I need to create kinetic text for a class and I was so lost on what program I could possibly use... PP is the only one I have on my computer
Thank you! These techniques can actually be done by anyone with enough patience and understanding the "main principle" shown, so doesn't have to be out of your league :). Appreciate the comment!
this takes a lot of "artistry" and creativeness! you're a very skillful woman! two thumbs up for this very informative video! :)
What a nice comment - thanks, Raven! Appreciate it.
Hi Supreet - thanks for the kind words, and I'm so glad that my videos have been helpful to you! Congrats on getting 2013 (I am still holding off because there aren't enough new features for me).

you really are both a technological and creative genius! Bravo!!
Thanks, CompleteBeautyTreat! What a nice comment - really appreciate it! Glad you liked the video, and feel free to check out my other ones.
you are a goddess!Thank you!Very difficult to do it, but if someone follows all your steps, then there it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome.....enjoyed & a great learning showing the power of Powerpoint....Thanks for posting...
Fantastic! I'm sure your project will really stand out.
I have never used Power Point, but I will learn a lot with your impressive knowledge, thank you very much.
Hi Hugo - thanks for checking out the video! This one in particular might be a little challenging if you've never used PowerPoint before but check out my "easy flip effect" video - that one is probably a better starting point. Thanks for the comment!
Oh nice - very creative! Yes, I had considered something similar as well but then thought it would be too tedious to even suggest. If you had the patience, you potentially could do that in PPT as well (crop individual squares to make it look like the original).
I love your tutorials - so brilliant - thank you so much for sharing.
elttraining Thanks, elttraining! Glad you liked it!
whoa that work was so cool and showing how you've done it makes me realize it's actually strenuous XD i praise your patience! good job! :DDD
Another wonderful tutorial! Very talented!
Well done, I never considered doing this type of animations with PowerPoint. Very creative use of the software :)
Thank you! Yes, PPT can do a lot more than most people realize, so I'm glad that this video helps shed some light on that.
It will take me a year to go through this and get all the details involved. You are a wiz!
Thanks, it is taken me over a year to write a written tutorial on it - still working on it! It's a lot of very simple effects put together in a pretty complex way, so it's challenging to explain. Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much for your video tutorials.They're presented in a step-by-step easy to follow format.I hope you will continue to make video tutorials.God bless!
Thanks, Twenty Sixteen - so glad it was useful! By the way, I just posted a new tutorial in case you want to check out - you may like it as well.
MOTHER OF POWERPOINT!
Good question! You paste it on the next slide as a picture and shrink it by the same percentage as the shrink animation on the previous slide. Of course, you then have to make sure it all lines up through trial and error.
Great tutorial...thank you!
You're very welcome -- nice channel, by the way!

Thank you so much - really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed.
Wonderful! Yes, a Shakespeare presentation is a great opportunity for some spicing up ;). I will definitely upload more -- it just takes me a long time to make them so I don't upload too often.
Very, very useful tutorial! Well done!
Madam! i just want to say that you are the best!. Keep it up!
+safar ali YOU are the best for such a nice comment - thanks, Safar!
Thrilling to see! I had no idea these things were possible...Thanks!!
Tom Reichert Absolutely - lots more is possible in PPT than most people realize. Thanks for watching and commenting, Tom!
Awesome work... Can u plz tell me which version of microsoft powerpoint u used?
Thanks, I am amazed of what powerpoint can actually do.
Yes, it's crazy, isn't it?! Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for the comment!
Brilliant video, just what I was looking for! I was just wondering though, Vortex transition isn't available on Powerpoint 2007 so are there any add ons or alternatives I could use?
Very informative video. Thank you!
Thanks, Susan - appreciate the comment! Glad you enjoyed.
Thank you - and YOU'RE awesome for watching :)
Thanks! Because of you i was able to surprise my friends
(They thought i used after affects) :D
That's fantastic! So glad to hear it - thanks for sharing! :)
Great, good luck! Yes, definitely a lot of work, but you can start off more simple by using only a few of these at a time.
Excellent - and if you use these tricks, you may be able to restore the faith of others as well :)
Thank you for your quick response and clarification, one more question in the blast section 14:33 how to converge can you please explain.
Wow! what a talent!.. but for a beginner like me, its something i have to really work on to follow your tutorials... hope there's a written tutorials that i could have to guide me on the step by step instructions as seen in this video tutorials.. I really want to learn more... Thanks for sharing your knowledge. :)
Wheng Culit Hi Wheng - thanks so much! I am working on a written tutorial for this, but it's taking quite a while to make - will let you know when it's finished (hopefully in this century :)).
Great presentation!Now i can able to use some cool effect in my project after i watch this video . 8-)
Thank You! :)
Your videos are really a good help in my presentation. :)
Excellent tutorial!! When you use the grow/shrink effect, it grows/shrinks from the center of the object. Is there a way of making it grow from the edge. Eg. making a box expand in size, but it is sitting on a table. You can do this by running a simultaneous movement animation in the opposite direction, but that gets tedious.
wow i am totally going to nail my presentation with this
This is flippin' AWESOME! Now, if only I could get my clients to ask for it...
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed. What sort of work do you normally do for your clients?
PowerPoint Spice
I produce corporate sales presentations, mostly. After watching your video I included a kinetic typography segment in a recent proposal for an annual meeting presentation. I hope they go for it!
Laura Foley Oh very nice! The corporate world definitely needs more presentation gurus like you :). I checked out your channel, too - impressive! I would consider doing a demo kinetic typography piece as a sample deliverable, sort of like what you have in your other videos, so your clients can be wowed and request it -- you may even get new leads (I get a lot of PPT requests from this video, for example, though I unfortunately cannot fulfill them due to the time constraints of my other job :/ ).
Amazing! Great job - learned a ton.
Thank you so much! Glad you did.
Thanks for your questions! I'm not sure I understand your first question - could you please clarify? And are you using version 2010 or earlier? Yes, it's a bit of pain because there is not a way to show the end state unless you view in presentation mode (in PPT 2013, you can at least see the end state of motion paths, which is good). What I always do is take my best guess at the end state on the duplicated slide, the view in presentation mode, improve, view in pres. mode again, improve, etc.
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I managed to create an amazing cool slides by following the instructions from your videos. Love your tutorial so much. Never knew that we could do so much with ppoint. Appreciate your comments on the videos which I created on the link below.
EVENT MANAGEMENT AND TRAVEL SERVICES CO. - MSY SERVICES, MALAYSIA
Thank you for the note and the excellent presentation sample, MSY Services! Great job with that!
You're a genius! Great tutorial! Thank you!
My head hurts... Great video tutorial! I'll try to do this next time.
Thank you! Let me know if you have questions so you don't have such a headache :).
Your videos are great! Thank you for all of the information.
You're so welcome - thank you for the comment!
Nice to see your still active, i just installed Win7, and office is activating. Now im soon making tutorials on a new channel to be made.
great job ... indeed
keep it up

assuming you're talking about the "so" sequence --- after your make the circles in 4 pieces, you duplicate the slide and group them together OR just uncrop one of the 4 pieces so that you have just one --- to make it smaller, you use grow/shrink emphasis animation
Wonderful ideas, and greatly explained! Its an inspiration to do my very best to make more engaging ppt's for my students! By the by, how are you making this video's...? Thx for your hard work.
The only other thing I can think of other than removing it manually from each slide like you said is moving the bullets slightly to the right side in the master so that the 1st level now lines up with where the second level is in your current template -- you can even change the bullet type to match your current second level bullets.
This is a great video! I learned a lot :) I was using After Effects, but I didn't realize you could do advance things on PowerPoint. Thank you!
+quitefranklybb Absolutely! While it's not quite as smooth and you're much more limited in features, but you can definitely still make VERY cool stuff in PowerPoint! By the way, I just released a new video about a Prezi-like new feature in PPT, which you may enjoy as well (gives you even more creative opportunities!).
that was the best ppt effect i have ever seen
+Hard Rocker Smash cool! Glad you liked it - feel free to check out my other videos too for other interesting effects.
Awesome - good luck!!!
Talk about "advanced"!!! I tried to follow, but my PP skills are so basic, it was hard to do. I'll try again later.
Hi Ignacio -- yes, it definitely requires a medium to advanced level of ppt knowledge to do it, but great job on trying to watch anyway. If you have questions on it, let me know. I have some other videos that show tricks that are still very cool but much easier to do.
you are amazing thank you so much!!!! i love powerpoint and this is my first time doing something like this, but can you please tell me how you did the rectangles in the film affect? i made it till there but now i'm stuck... also i made a video of my own and it turned out realy great all thanks to you!!!!!!!!
Thanks! Hey, can you say which version of PPT you're using. Looks like I am missing a few of the functions.
Great job on your tutorial! Question for you on the basic layering slides. You mention in slide 2 that you split the circle shape. I was trying to look at this animation and maybe though it was an effect option. Did you happen to leave out a step where you might have split the circle into halves and then inverted them with animation? Just don't want to waste time looking for this type of animation if it was just something that you did behind the scenes. BTW, I am using PowerPoint 2013.
Hi there - thanks for the question! Yes, this video turned out to be very complex, so I didn't have time to show everything in depth in the time RUclips allotted, unfortunately. To split the circle, you have to first paste it as a picture twice (delete the original), then crop out half of it on each picture (the right and left respectively), then put the two halves together so it looks like a full circle.
Your tutorials are so good, I hope that you are sponsored to do these! It looks like we can use PowerPoint as well as Photoshop and Flash.
Thanks so much! And no, I'm not really "sponsored" but just do it because I like to spread the word about how much fun you can have with PPT. Yes, PPT can have some of the same effects as Flash and Photoshop, if you're creative enough!
Love your video! I have some questions though. How do you make the circle of dots? And where is the shape outline? Please reply :)
