This is one of the coolest tricks in Keynote that I have recently come across that I think you can greatly benefit from. Many people do not understand how to use the basic Keynote animation functions to make their videos look like its of professional quality.

What you're going to learn in this video is exactly that. I'm literally revealing one of my Keynote animation secrets that few people know and implement into their slideshow presentations.

Watch the video now to learn more and then visit my blog to pick up similar trainings just like this one.

Matthew Neer, out!

  • when you revealed your desktop, how did you flip back to keynote so quick? And how did you close skype so quick? I love general usage tips! Makes everyday tasks so much quicker

  • @TheHonestTheist cmd+tab to switch between open applications

    cmd+f3 to make the screen jump to desk top

  • @TheHonestTheist also, cmd+w will close a tab or window or whatever you have open and cmd+q will quit that application. You can actually look up and set your own hot keys in your Macs keyboard settings...

  • See that? Boom! Flip flip flip! lol!

  • Thanks for this Matthew, I actually use Powerpoint myself and haven't used Keynote yet, although I do have a mac which I use for different types of video.

    I have bookmarked this tutorial as I know it will help me when I decide to use my mac and keynote for video. Thanks again,

  • @branballz Thanks mate! And what do you use to reveal your desktop? I've got a magic mouse and typically use a three finger swipe up. I take it you use a keyboard shortcut?

  • @TheHonestTheist command-tab to bring up the applications running, then scroll to the app you want to delete with tab while holding down command still. when you want to delete that app, press q.

    (Command is held down all the way)

  • no offense, this isnt anything. A simple flip wont do anything. The best animations to use is diffuse and scale.

  • This vid is good but if you want to make an animation were people can actually do stuff like walking i would do more of a stop motion stuff by moving the picture slightly then and make a new slide and changing the picture slightly...then go to share send it to Iphoto then switch it to an Imovie take off the ken burns effect shorten the length of time it takes to switch from pictures and your done.

  • Is KeyNote the presentation app that does the animation where the text or image comes crashing onto the slide and causes smoke - like an explosion? I noticed that they use it a lot in Apple's presentations to the press a lot and I was wandering if that was the app they use for it? I'm using Microsoft Office on my Mac and PowerPoint is a little basic so I'm tempted to get KeyNote - but only if it has the animation I'm looking for :P

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
