Design Custom Slide on PowerPoint 2016

In this article,  I am going to show you how to design custom slide on PowerPoint 2016. Mostly many designers all over the world they are using slide master from view tab or custom slides from design tab to design a slide, but today  In this lesson  I am not using any of them, instead, I am using a picture, a shape and text boxes. The slides designs are really important for a presentation. The presentation which I am creating is familiar with the creative websites, the only difference according to me is the animations which I have applied on the slide. So let’s get started with the job to design custom slide with powerpoint 2016.

Step #6. After selecting rectangle shape draw it on the Picture.

Note: Remember the shape fill color must be black, in order to fill it with black color, select the shape and format tab, select fill and select black color.

Step #9. Now you need to draw a text box from home tab or insert tab  and write in it the anything which you want to write. I have written, ” Feeling the life in a way different” with Segoe Ul light font.

Applying Animation

It is time to apply the animation effect, which really makes the slide perfect for presenting.
