So our new whole school photo screen saver is now up and running. There are still a couple of bugs to be worked out the system but these can be worked around just now.
The screens in the school are nearly all 4×3 aspect ratio. This means when you create your advert you need to think landscape. Powerpoint is your friend here as it allows you to create 4×3 landscape by default.
Instructions to create an advert.
- Load powerpoint
- Create your advert. Remember, it will only be on screen for a few seconds so keep it short and make it colourful so it stands out.
- Save your powerpoint as normal, you might want to reuse it as a template.
- Select file->save as
- Change the save as type to JPEG and click OK
-
- Chose a location and do you have more than one advert?
- email the saved file to me 🙂
It’s that easy
