The teleprompter view shows your notes for the current slide above the slide preview. This allows you to read your notes while maintaining eye contact

PowerPoint provides a teleprompter view for displaying notes for the current slide, thus enabling presenters to maintain eye contact with their audience whilst consulting their notes. The process comprises: a brief introduction, discussion about PowerPoint Notes, details on running a teleprompter, guidance on Teleprompter View, introduction to the Automatic Scroll, and a conclusion.

  • Using PowerPoint as a teleprompter is cost effective compared to professional teleprompting systems.
  • Teleprompters are used during professional speeches to guarantee smooth delivery.
  • Presenters can appear to look directly at the camera or audience due to the functionality of the teleprompter.
  • Professional teleprompters gradually scroll through a script making only a few lines visible at a time.
  • This allows the entire text to be read from a distance.

More on Teleprompters

At its core, a teleprompter is a device designed to assist a speaker in delivering their speech or presentation whilst appearing to directly interact with their audience. Professional teleprompters, despite being more expensive, provide an invaluable carrier as they slowly scroll through a script, enabling only a few lines to be visible at any given moment. This facilitates easier reading from a distance and enhances the engagement process with the audience.

How to Use PowerPoint as a Teleprompter

Professionals often use teleprompters during speeches to ensure smooth delivery. Teleprompters enable presenters to read a script directly while appearing to look at the audience or camera. However, professional systems can be expensive. This guide explains how to use PowerPoint as a cheaper alternative.

What is a Teleprompter?

A teleprompter is a device that allows a speaker to read their speech or presentation while appearing to engage directly with the audience or camera. Professional teleprompters slowly scroll through the script so that only a few lines are visible at any given time, allowing the entire text to be read from a distance.

Using PowerPoint's Teleprompter View

PowerPoint's Teleprompter View allows you to see your notes for each slide as well as the slide itself. To use it:

  1. Open the PowerPoint presentation.
  2. Add your speaker notes.
  3. Select the Record menu.
  4. Click the 'From Beginning' button.
  5. In the bottom right-hand corner, click the Views button.
  6. Select Teleprompter.

Creating a Working Teleprompter in PowerPoint

If you have large amounts of text, it's better to create a teleprompter that scrolls through all of the text. This can be done using a text animation in PowerPoint:

  1. Create a new PowerPoint presentation and remove the subtitle section.
  2. Type or paste the text into the 'Click To Add Title' section.
  3. Adjust the size of the text box to fit the width of your slide.
  4. Change the font color to white and the background to black.
  5. Use the Animation menu to add a Line motion path to your text.
  6. Adjust the animation effect options and duration to get your text scrolling at the desired speed.
  7. Increase the font size if necessary for easy reading.
