Episode Notes

In this episode, I respond to a listener request for more talk about creating effective, interesting animated video. I could have gone high-tech, but instead, I challenge you to think about using PowerPoint for effective animated video.

##Using PowerPoint (or Keynote) for Animated Video
Here are a couple of examples of creating animated video in presentation software.

##Simple (non PPT) examples
These examples were probably made using different software but they still show evidence of technically simple video techniques that created engaging content.

##TED-Ed Examples
These are much more flashy, but I challenge you on whether they are any more engaging than their simpler counterparts.
