I have an animated object, which when transferred to storyline 2 becomes static. i am not a graphic artist/designer. How do I transfer the animation to storyline. Please help ASAP.
When the frame begins in SL2, I want the animated instructor (moving his
hand). With the movement of the hand the text slides in.
After sometime, the animated instructor fades out and the animated rate
appears, and then the three bullet points along with the rat animation.
If you need both slides, I'd go with the suggestion of inserting both of them as separate videos/slides. As Wendy mentioned, without knowing how you want the sequence to run in Storyline it's difficult to entirely update your file, but I'd look at using the same video instructions Wendy shared. You can find information about adding in the videos as detailed here.
Thanks for the response Ashley. You have mentioned in your email that I can
insert both slides as separate videos. However, while exporting the
animation as videos I selected only one slide but both the slides got
converted into video ( a single). Do I need to save the slides as separate
PPTs? Please suggest.
Also, I when I exported the slides as videos into SL2, I got extra master
slides. Do I need to delete the extra slides?
Please suggest.
I looked at some Microsoft documentation and it appears that the option turns your presentation into a video, which would include all slides. If you need them to be separate, you could create two files. I do not have any first-hand experience with this functionality and do not support Powerpoint.
I'm confused on your second question. You should be adding the video to your Storyline project as explained here.
In my new assignment, I have several PPTs with animated objects. I need to
construct a Storyboard out of those PPTs. Can you please suggest steps so
that the images do not get distorted while transferring to SL2. Also, the
animation does not get lost.
Actually the client has given animated PPTs only. There are several slides
in each PPT. There is no instruction as to how things need to be done. We
have to follow the PPT animation. That is why I was bit concerned about
loosing animation effects.
I have been following the method of converting PPT into videos and then
embedding into SL2. However, if you have a better option please feel free
to suggest.
I'm not following your issue here. What is PFA? Where is your audio? Are you experiencing an error or just running into difficulty? Some more details would be helpful.
If you wish to work directly with our support engineers and perhaps share your file, you could do so here.

Hi Chetana
you can save the ppt slide as a video.
File > Export > Create Video and then insert the video into SL
Thanks for the reply Wendy.
I have two slides. I have to import both slides separately or the entire
PPT in one go.

You could do separately in ppt or as one video and then edit the video in SL to cut in half. I'm not sure how you want the sequence to run in SL

Hi Chetana!
By direct import, you could lose some of the functionality you wish to retain.
This tutorial describes how animations and slide transitions are handled when you import a PowerPoint file into Articulate Storyline.

Hi Chetana!
Could you share the support case number you were given and I can take a peek.
If you did not get confirmation, you may need to try to upload again.
