WPS Presentation provides an accessible and effective method to highlight places, real estate, or tourist spots without requiring advanced technical skills or expensive software. No matter if you’re in real estate, tourism, or education, creating an engaging virtual tour can help your audience experience a place as if they were there in person. WPS Presentation, part of the WPS Office suite provides an intuitive interface and a range of features that make building these slideshows both efficient and visually appealing.
Begin by collecting crisp, clear photos and video clips of the target site. Take photographs from various perspectives to convey dimension and layout. Include exterior views, interior rooms, key features like kitchens or pools, and any unique elements such as landscaping or architectural details. If possible, use a 360 degree camera or take overlapping photos that can be stitched together for an immersive effect. Keep all visuals neatly stored in a dedicated folder for quick retrieval while editing.
Open WPS Presentation and choose a blank presentation or a clean template that won’t distract from your visuals. For virtual tours, minimalistic designs with neutral backgrounds work best. Start with a cover slide featuring the property’s name and a short, compelling subtitle. Then, insert each photo or video onto its own slide. To do this, go to the Insert tab and select Picture or Video. Adjust the scale and placement so the media occupies the entire slide area. Keep slides clean and unobstructed to let the imagery convey the message.
Apply subtle slide transitions to ensure fluid navigation between scenes. Opt for soft effects like dissolve or slide-in instead of spinning or exploding animations. Adjust duration to 5 to 8 seconds per frame to balance pacing and comprehension. Fine-tune slide duration in the Transition settings by activating automatic timing and inputting your preferred interval.
Introduce interactive components to deepen viewer engagement. WPS Presentation allows you to insert hyperlinks, so you can create buttons or hotspots that lead to additional information, such as a website, a YouTube video tour, or a floor plan. You could include a button saying "Explore the Bathroom" that opens a zoomed-in photo or a 30-second clip. Such interactive features create a natural progression through the environment.
Incorporate audio elements like ambient noise or spoken commentary using the audio insertion tool. Ensure sound files are crisp, low-volume, and set to repeat if they’re background tracks. Record your voice in real-time during a slide show rehearsal to add personalized commentary. You’ll capture authentic tone and pacing as you describe each scene.
Once your slideshow is complete, test it thoroughly. Test in fullscreen to confirm seamless playback and accurate linkage. Make adjustments to timing, transitions, or image quality as necessary. When satisfied, export the file as a video by going to Export and selecting MP4 or AVI format. This creates a standalone file that can be shared on websites, social media, or via email without requiring WPS Office to be installed.
Use on-screen annotations to guide attention for users with audio disabled. You can place labels directly over objects to identify rooms, fixtures, or architectural highlights.
Finally, share your virtual tour widely. Publish on video hosting sites and embed the player directly into your site’s property or portfolio page. Offer the file as a downloadable zip or direct link for offline access. You can produce high-quality virtual experiences using only free, user-friendly tools. Whether you’re a novice or expert, WPS Presentation turns ordinary photos into unforgettable virtual journeys.
