eWizard Converter is your starting point for turning presentations into dynamic videos. By uploading a PowerPoint presentation, each slide is transformed into editable video elements, giving you the flexibility to adjust the slide layout, text elements, and speech. While some elements may change during conversion, you can easily fine-tune them afterwards.

Once the presentation is converted, you can open its slides in AI-avatar video storyboard with the EDIT button on the Converter Summary page.

Here, you can use the following controls to manage your converted slides and their content in bulk or individually:

Control

Action

Notes

Change the video template.

You can choose from All, My templates, Horizontal, and Vertical templates if available. After changing the template, you can apply any of the template's slide layouts to your slides.

Generate your video and switch to the AI-avatar video editor.

You can continue working with slides in the AI-avatar video editor or render the video.

Open the dropdown list to select or deselect all slides at once, or manage them individually.

The selection counter indicates the number of slides currently selected out of the total number of available slides. You can freely select slides in editable and image modes separately. Click x next to the selection counter to deselect all slides.

Apply bulk adjustments to speech text of the selected slides.

In the Rewrite speech text with AI popup, you can do the following:
• Use a prompt for rewriting the speech text of the selected slide.
• Shorten or expand speech with Length adjustments.
• Adjust the delivery and format or voice using the Tone & Style options.
​
​Note: Slides without speech text are automatically skipped.

Convert some or all selected slides at once between image and editable modes.

• Editable mode converts each slide object into a dynamic element in your video, giving you more flexibility to edit. Some elements might be altered, so you may need to make small adjustments after uploading the presentation. By default, converted slides open in editable mode.
• Image mode converts each slide into a single image, preserving the layout exactly as in PowerPoint (if the slide ratio is 16:9). You can revert any slide to image mode.

Slide editing

To proceed to the converted slide editing:

  1. Click the required slide or use the Select slides button in the upper-left corner of the page for bulk selection. The selected slide is highlighted.

  2. In the selected slide area, all texts and visual elements from your presentation slides are displayed in the Slide visuals section. Here, you can:

    • Add text or edit existing. For this, click the text area and enter the text or change it manually.

    • Crop and change the image. For this, click the image thumbnail to trigger the Edit image popup. In the popup, change the image size with the crop handels.

      You can also click the Change image button and select any available image from:

    • Uploads. Use uploaded images available on the My Assets tab.

    • From stock. Browse the Freepik library and find suitable visuals using the search box and filters.

    • AI generation. Create unique images with a text prompt. You can modify results with Style, Color, Framing, and Lighting options. Unfold Settings to choose the image size and add a negative prompt to avoid things on the image. AI-generated images are automatically saved to My Assets and can be reused.

  3. In the Speech text section, add the required text for the avatar voiceover.

    You can also use the AI speech text generation or improvement. For this, click the button, and in the Rewrite speech with AI popup:

    • Enter a prompt for rewriting the speech text of the selected slide.

    • Shorten or expand speech with Length adjustments.

    • Adjust delivery style and format or voice with Tone & Style.

If a slide contains too many elements, it can only be edited after you apply the Convert to slides option. Once converted, you can freely edit all slide elements in the AI-avatar video editor.

Additionally, you can do the following:

  • Change the slide layout. For this, click the slide thumbnail to open the Edit slide popup. Select Change slide layout and choose a new layout from the available options. If none of the existing layouts meet your needs, click Change template on the top panel to switch to a different template. Then, apply one of the slide layouts from the newly selected template.

  • Convert slides between image and editable modes. For this, click the slide thumbnail to open the Edit slide popup. Select Revert slide to image mode and convert this slide into a non-editable background image to maintain the original layout and design. As a result, such a slide is marked with theicon. You can convert the slide in image mode back to editable mode individually or in bulk with the Convert button on the top panel.

  • Delete the slide with thebutton.

  • Add an empty slide with the button.

  • View approximate slide speech duration in seconds.

After editing slides in storyboard, click the Convert to slides button on the top panel to generate your video. You are redirected to the AI-avatar video editor, where you can continue working with slides or render the video.
