Today you will
- write a short script for one slide
- record it as a voiceover
- put the recording into your presentation
A voiceover is your own voice, recorded and attached to a slide.
Think of a video where the sound helped you, and one where it got in the way. What was the difference?
A voiceover is a short recording of your voice on a slide.
Audio levels are how loud each sound is, and your voice should be the loudest.
Royalty-free music is music you are allowed to use. Copyright protects chart songs, so leave them out. Always know where your music came from.
A 20-second script: "This slide shows my three graduation photo packages. The mid package at €45 covers a 30-minute shoot and ten edited shots. Most families book that one."
You will record a short voiceover for one slide. Watch your teacher first, then follow the steps in the box below.
There are two parts. When Part A is done, stop and wait for your teacher to start Part B.
If you are making a video or a podcast, record the same way. Then add the file in CapCut or your audio editor.
Common issues
- Insert Audio is greyed out. Upload the file first, then use the path on the board.
- My phone recording isn't on the PC. Email it to yourself and save it to Downloads.
- My recording is too quiet. Record again closer to the mic.
- I want a chart song. That isn't allowed, so use approved royalty-free music or none.
