You can animate the text, pictures, shapes, tables, SmartArt graphics, and other objects in your PowerPoint presentation. Effects can make an object appear, disappear, or move. They can change an object's size or color.
There's also a related video about animating text. Select the object or text you want to animate. Select Animations and choose an animation. Select Effect Options and choose an effect. There are different ways to start animations in your presentation: On Click: Start an animation when you click a slide. With Previous: Play an animation at the same time as the previous animation in your sequence. After Previous: Start an animation immediately after the previous one happens. Duration: Lengthen or shorten an effect. Delay: Add time before an effect runs. Select an object or text with an animation. Select Add Animation and choose one. Select an animation marker. Choose the option you want: Move Earlier: Make an animation appear earlier in the sequence. Move Later: Make an animation occur later in the sequence. You can add an animation to grouped objects, text, and more. Press Ctrl and select the objects you want. Select Format > Group > Group to group the objects together. Select Animations and choose an animation. Select the object that you want to animate. On the Animations tab of the ribbon, in the Animation group, click the More The most popular effects are shown. If you want even more choices, click a More option at the bottom of the gallery. Select a heading below to open it and see the detailed instructions. The speed of the effect is determined by the Duration setting.
The Delay option determines how much time elapses before a specific animation effect begins—either after you click or after a prior animation effect concludes.
To reorder a set of animations on a slide:
When you animate an object, a small numerical marker appears just to the left of that object to indicate the presence of an animation effect and its place in the sequence of animations on the current slide.
For a more complete discussion, see Change, remove, or turn off animation effects.
After you add one or more animation effects, to validate that they work, do the following:
Avoid having to manually animate several objects in the same way: Use the Animation Painter to copy animations from one object to another. For full details and a quick video demonstration, see Duplicate animations with the Animation Painter. Select the item that you want to animate, click the Animations tab, and then choose one of the following: If you want an item to Click here on the Animations tab of the ribbon Appear on the slide (Click the right arrow to see more choices) Receive emphasis Exit the slide Follow a defined path You can apply more than one animation to a single object. Simply select the object again and apply an additional effect. Each animation effect is represented on the slide by a number Edit animation effectsTo change, remove, or reorder animation effects:
Choose Play From to preview your changes. See alsoAnimate text and objects with motion paths Change or remove animation effects Make words appear one line at a time Animate bullet points one at a time Select
the object or text on the slide that you want to animate. An "object" in this context is any thing on a slide, such as a picture, a chart, or a text box. Sizing handles appear around an object when you select it on the slide. (For animation purposes, a paragraph within a text box is also an object, but it won't have sizing handles when you select it; instead the entire text box has sizing handles.) On the Animations tab of the ribbon, open the gallery of animations, and select the one you want. On the Animations tab, open the Effect Options list to select from among the available options. Effect options are available for text or for choosing the direction or intensity of an animation. (Not all animations have Effect options.) To preview the animation, on the Slide Show tab of the ribbon, select Play from Beginning. (If you've turned off the Simplified Ribbon, you don't have a
Slide Show tab; instead use the View tab to start Slide Show.) In Slide Show view, click the slide to make an animation effect play. Select the animated object. On the Animations tab of the ribbon, open the gallery of animations and select None. When you animate an object, a small numerical marker appears just to the left of that object to indicate the presence of an animation effect and its place in the sequence of animations on the slide. These markers appear when the Animation tab of the ribbon is selected. On the slide, select an animated object. On the Animation tab of the ribbon, in the Timing group, click Move Earlier or Move Later. Each click changes the object's position in the order by one increment. The numbering in the animation markers changes to reflect the ordering of the effects.

What is a motion path in PowerPoint?You use a motion path to move something in a very specific way on a slide. You can also combine motion paths with other effects. Apply a motion path. Click the thing to which you want to add a motion path. The center of the object or text follows the motion path that you apply.
