Brian's Very Peri Office Background

Just as an aside, when I first started in Storyline one of the first files I ever downloaded was Montse Anderson's collection of blurred backgrounds. I still use them! Anyway, I love modern office interiors! In this one I blurred the right hand side of the photo behind Brian so he could pop, but I kept the crisp backdrop behind my titles--and then gave them all a little very peri wash of color. It's a simple slider with 10 different states on the photo. My backgrounds can be downloaded in the player's Resources Tab. Have a great week everyone!

    Good job Jodi! It reminded me of the unfocused ones that Teams also does in video calls. Good week!

    A well-chosen background image that looks great even when blurred to abstract levels. You have a great eye, Jodi!

    Hi Jodi,

    This is cool. We should talk about this because I have a question about the blurring. I couldn't create a blur effect at all.

      Hi Kandice--check it out in your Snagit tool bar. I used the blur tool. It takes 5 seconds. :) You can choose the strength of your blur effect too.
