Animation Schemes in PowerPoint 2002/2003
PowerPoint 2002 and later provides a host of new animation effects. In addition to that it also supports animation schemes. Animation schemes let you apply a pre-designed animation and transition effects set to your entire presentation at once. This can also be done on a side-by-slide basis. The Animation Schemes task pane lets you choose the animation scheme that's right for your target audience.
The best part is that you can add/modify and distribute animation schemes of your own. All the schemes are present in a read-only file quikanim.ppt located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\1033 (the path may vary depending on the drive and installation folder). This file is essentially a normal PowerPoint file. You can open the file in PowerPoint directly. However it is best to remove the read-only flag before opening it. It is crucial that you follow the structure of the presentation while editing anything within else you may encountered PowerPoint errors when you use animation schemes.

The presentation is structured as follows:
Each animation scheme has two slides.
First one for the title slides and second one for the non-title slides.
The title of the slide is the category the schemes is in (e.g., Subtle). The body of the slide is the name of the scheme (e.g., Flash Bulb).
Animation schemes only apply animations from the title and body placeholders (plus any slide transition). so you can just add animations to the body & title placeholders in the slides. Once you have added new schemes you can save the file and close it. Launch the animation schemes from the panes and there you are - the new custom schemes listed!
You can distribute such schemes however there can only be one quikanim.ppt that can exist on a machine. So be careful that you do not overwrite existing schemes.
Steps to create an animation scheme:
Using Windows explorer navigate to the folder containing the file 'QuikAnim.ppt' on your machine.
Create a backup copy of the file so that you can replace it later in case anything goes wrong with the original file.
Select the file and right-click the mouse and select Properties in the QuikAnim Properties window select the General tab.
Uncheck the Read only file attribute and click on OK.
Double click on the file to launch PowerPoint and open the file for editing.
Press Ctrl + End to move to the last slide in the presentation.
Select Insert | New slide... .
Apply a Title Slide layout to this slide
Enter the category name in the Title placeholder of the slide. For example: User Defined.
Enter the name of this animation scheme in the Sub Title placeholder. For example: Simple Animation.
Right-click on the Title placeholder, select Custom Animation... and add effects which are to applied to the Title placeholder of the Title slide whenever this animation scheme is applied.
Repeat the process for the animations to be applied to the Sub Title placeholder.
We have now completed creating an animation scheme for the Title Slide. Now we need to insert another slide, this slide will contain the animation scheme for the non-title slides.
Select Insert | Duplicate slide... .
Apply a Title & Text layout to this duplicated slide.
Apply custom animations to the placeholder shapes as done earlier.
Apply a slide transition to this slide, if required. The slide transition set is a part of the animation scheme.
We have completed adding one custom animation scheme. Repeat this process for as many custom schemes you wish to design.
Save the presentation.
Close the presentation.
Quit PowerPoint
Head back to Windows explorer and select the file (QuikAnim.ppt) and set it's Read-only attribute to True. Click on OK.
Launch PowerPoint
Open a new presentation.
Select Format | Slide Design. In the Slide Design Task Pane select Animation Schemes.
Scroll down to the bottom of the schemes listed. There you are - our very own custom animation schemes category (User Defined) is listed. Apply the 'Simple Animation' scheme to the slide.
OR
One popular Animation Scheme used is the SLIDE TRANSITION. This allows special effects to appear as the user progresses through the presentation.
Click SLIDE SHOW--ANIMATION SCHEMES...
The Slide Design Pane appears on the right side of the screen.
If you are unsure as to which animation to choose, click on each and press the PLAY button to preview it.
For example, click on the following .avi file to view the animation called BIG TITLE.
Once you find the animation you like, you can Apply to All Slides OR you can apply different animations to EACH slide.
Another neat slide transition you can add to your ENDING Slide is the ROLL CREDITS.
If you simply want JUST the whole Slide to appear and disppear with a certain pattern, go to SLIDE SHOW--SLIDE TRANSITION.
The Slide Transition Pane appears on the right side of the screen.
The first area is where you choose the type of transition you want.
The next area allows you to choose the Speed and if you want to include a Sound file with that particular slide.
The next area allows you to choose whether you want the slide to advance on Mouse Click OR Automatically after so many seconds.
You can then select PLAY to view your new slide transition.
For instance, you can choose CLOCKWISE, 8 SPOKES.

Are you speaking approximately downloading a presentation? because of the fact in case you're, then it is plagiarism. And in case you're speaking approximately downloading PowerPoint for unfastened, you're out of luck.
