WPS Presentation’s video insertion tool transforms dull slides into compelling experiences by transforming static slides into dynamic, engaging experiences. Unlike traditional slide decks that rely solely on text and images embedding videos allows you to show step-by-step workflows, present practical applications, or trigger audience emotions that words alone cannot convey. The process is straightforward and integrated seamlessly into the WPS Presentation interface, making it accessible even for users with minimal technical expertise.
To begin, open your presentation and navigate to the slide where you want the video to appear Click on the Insert menu in the toolbar, then select Media from the available options. You will be presented with choices to insert a video from your local device, an online source, or a clip stored in the cloud. Most users prefer inserting videos stored locally. Navigate your directories, pick the video, and confirm with Open. WPS Presentation supports popular formats such as MP4, MOV, and AVI, ensuring compatibility with most recordings.
After insertion, a video frame appears on the slide You can scale and drag it to any location, using handles to modify width and height or dragging it to reposition it. Place the video in a space that supports, not competes with, your slide’s message—ensuring a smooth, uncluttered design. Add visual enhancements like outlines, drop shadows, or tint filters to make the video blend more harmoniously with your slide design.
WPS gives you full control over video timing and triggers Right click on the video and select Video Controls to access playback settings. Choose between automatic launch or user-initiated playback. Activate repeat mode for ongoing playback, or set it to mute the audio if background music is already playing. These options ensure seamless integration of video into your narrative and ensure the video enhances rather than distracts.
You can cut unwanted portions of your video inside the app If your video is too long or contains irrelevant segments, you can use the Trim Video tool to specify custom beginning and ending frames. This eliminates the need for external editing software and keeps your workflow efficient. Enable full-screen playback for immersive viewing, which is ideal for high-impact presentations or when showing detailed visuals like product close-ups or customer reviews.
When offline use is likely, embed videos directly into the file. Prevents playback failures and delays during your speech. WPS Presentation automatically embeds the video file into the presentation document, so as long as you maintain the video file alongside the presentation, the video will play without issues on any computer that has WPS Office installed.
Enhance your video with animated slide effects. Use a slide fade to coincide with video playback, creating a smooth, cinematic effect. Limit animated elements to maintain focus, as too many moving elements can overwhelm your audience and weaken your core point.
Verify playback on the device you’ll use live. Different devices may handle playback differently, and Display settings may alter sharpness. Run a complete dry run including video to ensure audio levels and positioning are flawless.
Incorporating video into your WPS Presentation does more than add visual interest—it reinforces your message, adds authenticity, and sustains viewer engagement. Whether presenting to clients, students, or audiences, intelligent video use creates lasting impressions. WPS offers all the video features you need to impress viewers.
