Split Image into Multiple Pieces to Create the Most Breathtaking Effect in PowerPoint

Split Image into Multiple Pieces to Create the Most Breathtaking Effect in PowerPoint | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

PowerPoint 2013 has some amazing features that are no less than those offered by Photoshop and other image editing softwares. One such effect that I love the most personally is the ‘Merge Shapes’ feature that lets you create breathtaking effects. 


One such effect (we gave it away in the the banner image of this post) is the splitting of an image into multiple pieces that serves a very unique function- it interrupts your gaze at the picture at every intersection but still gives you a complete picture at a glance. This grabs the viewer’s attention and forces them to read into each element of the image. The image and the slide as a whole get imprinted on the audience’s mind which is everything a presenter can ask for.


This article will guide you step-by-step how to create this split image effect. When you work with us side by side on PowerPoint 2013, you’ll end up with exactly this design:

The other C word: what makes great content marketing great

The other C word: what makes great content marketing great | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Now that content marketing has gone mainstream, the average stuff isn’t really going to work any more. We all need to be aiming higher, to create the ‘home run’ pieces that really drive successful programs.

So what makes for a ‘home run’ piece? Clearly, there’s no recipe to follow – but there is one ingredient that all great content marketing shares. That’s what this little rant is all about…

Jeff Domansky's insight:

I won't spoil the punchline but Doug Kessler's presentation is a good read and a good rant on what makes great content. For those who do presentations, this is a good-looking, engaging presentation to use as a blueprint.

This is a c-word I like. Food for thought in marketing our wares.
