Although a slide deck combines images, text, graphs, and creative layouts to convey a message, sometimes a topic can be better explained verbally. To combine visuals and audio elements into your presentation, you can insert a live stream of yourself talking into your Google Slides deck.
With the speaker spotlight tool, it's easy to insert a quick video of yourself into your presentation in a way that aesthetically matches your slide deck, as seen below.
The video feed streamed into the spotlight is live as you are presenting, but you can also record the presentation and then share it so that your colleagues, students, or peers have you verbally explain the slides and go through them. Sound too good to be true? Here's how to implement this quick feature.
