Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Dave Andrews. Today, I'm going to show you how to add music to a PowerPoint. To begin, let's open up PowerPoint by clicking on the start button, going to All Programs, Microsoft Office. Let's select PowerPoint. This is the default slide that comes up when you open PowerPoint, and we want to put some music on it. To put your music on the PowerPoint, let's click on Insert at the top, come over to Media Clips, and select Sound. Select the music that you would like to put on this slide, and just say okay. Now, it's going bring up a pop-up that ask you how you want that music to play, either automatically when the slide is opened or when it's clicked on, which will give you a little icon of a horn that you have to click on. Let's say when clicked. Here's our little horn, and I'm going to kind of move it out of the way. Let's run our slide show by going to slide show from beginning. As you can see, we have our little horn icon down at the bottom. I'm going to click on it, and our music will begin playing in the background of our slide. It's that easy to add sound to a slide show. My name is Dave Andrews, and I've just showed you how to add music to a Microsoft PowerPoint."
