Great video. Something to add. MS Office documents (i.e., PPTX files) are just ZIP files in disguise. Thus, to extract all the images from a PowerPoint, just rename the presentation file extension from PPTX to ZIP in File Explorer, and then extract the ZIP file.
Thanks for this video Tim, one advice You can import ppt to storyline directly without save picture by picture and each graphic will import directly, so you can control or animate it. Just try to keep all pictures in ppt separated not in group.
Another option instead of saving these individually is to rename the .PPTX file extension to .ZIP. Accept the change, and open the .ZIP file. In there will be a 'ppt' folder and within that a 'media' folder that contains very individual asset as a png/svg to insert into storyline.
Great solutions for those on free plan of Canva. For those of us who have a Canva Pro subscription, I imagine it would be just as easy to save each image we use in Canva as a PNG - with a transparent background - so it can easily be added to Articulate Storyline?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately, after a ton of research, I was unable to find a way to export a single graphic or image out of Canva, regardless if you’re a free or pro member. However, this may have changed since I recorded this video…so it’s worth giving it a try! Let me know!
@@elearningacdmy The "workaround" to download an image housed in Canva would be to use Canva Pro, select an image, go to Edit Photo, Remove background, then download as Jpg/PNG with Transparent Background. 🙂 If it's an image you dont want to delete the background of.... then repeat all steps, excluding Remove Background (which would work fine for free version).
Personally, I recommend a Mac...BUT...I'm an Apple person through and through, so I'm a little biased. If you can afford it, a Mac will outlast your next three PCs, and it has been my experience that Windows runs better on Mac (via Parallels) than it does on a PC. So, if you're willing to jump through those few small hoops, a Mac is great. Here's a video on installing Windows and Storyline on a Mac: th-cam.com/video/f10rnRmHV64/w-d-xo.html
You can, but I'm not a big fan of importing PowerPoint files directly into Articulate Storyline. Here's why: community.elearningacademy.io/c/knowledge-base/how-to-import-powerpoint-slides-into-articulate-storyline

So can you use these images within a corporate setting setting without being subject to copyright? Also, love the video :)
That’s correct! Anything that is offered on the free tier is free to use for commercial purposes.
Thanks Tim
Excellent tip!
I’m looking to purchase a laptop, I use Storyline mostly. Do you recommend a PC or Mac (using Parallel)? Thanks!

If I have Canva Pro, and I save my project as a SVG file, can I just import that into storyline?
You can, but I'm not a big fan of importing PowerPoint files directly into Articulate Storyline. Here's why: community.elearningacademy.io/c/knowledge-base/how-to-import-powerpoint-slides-into-articulate-storyline
