Inserting images into unconventional shapes is a quite successful way to create intriguing slides. In the video below, you will find a tutorial on how to make such interesting shapes.
The whole secret lies in creating a set of appropriate shapes and then inserting them into Slide Master. There, it's enough to:
- Insert a picture placeholder so that it completely covers the inserted shapes.
- Send the placeholder to the back.
- Unify shapes using the options from the Format Shape tab: Merge Shapes > Union.
- Then, select the placeholder first and then the unified shapes.
- Go to the Format Shape tab, expand the Merge Shapes option, and choose Intersect.
- Return to your presentation's working mode.
Choose a new slide with the newly inserted customized shape for a picture, click on the center icon of the placeholder, and then select the appropriate image from your computer folder. From now on, your PowerPoint presentation slide will captivate your audience's attention.
