1. How to determine the layout of each page template?

The layout of the template is based on the number of copywriting. For the sake of beauty, the copywriting in the template is fictitious, and the quantity Same thing. The copy layout of the content page in the template generally has the following types:

One-paragraph layout, two-paragraph layout, three-paragraph layout, four-paragraph layout, five-paragraph layout, Typesetting of six paragraphs of text. That’s basically it. It’s rare for a page template to have more than seven paragraphs of text typesetting. Then, you can match different amounts of text with pictures, icons, and charts one by one. Create a template.

As the saying goes: "A picture is worth a thousand words", in In PPT production, the importance of pictures is self-evident. High-quality pictures can quickly improve the quality of your slides. But often in our daily work, the pictures we encounter generally have problems such as rough quality, too small size, messy picture elements, etc. When we can’t find alternative high-quality pictures, we can try to combine the 8 currently popular The picture layout style turns trash pictures into treasures, and is also full of creativity.

Ideally, we hope to find pictures that are aesthetically pleasing and have a large blank area for easy writing of text.

For example, this picture:

But many times our materials have problems of one kind or another, so there is no place to put copy. Of course, you can crop the picture or add a color block, but this will break the artistic conception of the original picture itself. At this time, covering the image with a layer of mask can solve the problem.

The so-called mask actually means placing a board with transparency set on the upper layer of the picture to visually form a mask effect.

Sometimes we may only want to block part of the image. For example, in these two pictures, if you want to retain the image on the right side and block the left side of the image to facilitate the display of copy, you can use a gradient mask with transparency to achieve partial occlusion.

In addition to reducing the visibility of the overall image, enhancing the contrast of images and text, and blocking parts of the image to facilitate the display of copy, masks also have a very important function, which is to highlight the elements in the image. Key content. By making the mask look like a hollow mask, you can highlight the key content in the picture.

The layout format of interspersed images and text can make the picture more layered and three-dimensional.

The PPT below is a product introduction page I saw on Honda’s official website when I was training for Honda and designing a case. I tried to intersperse pictures and texts to make it. The effect of an animated picture.

The trick to interweaving pictures and text is that the picture must have a transparent background. If you want to remove the background of a picture, you can use the "Remove Background" function that comes with PowerPoint, or you can also use an online cutout tool: to do it easily.

As a design trend, gradient colors have been popular for quite some time. Adding gradient color overlay to the background of the page can make them more integrated, allowing the audience to pay attention to other more important and critical elements, and enhance the readability of the page.

For example, in the PPT on this page of Xiaomi’s press conference, the background color blocks are filled with gradient colors. Compared with solid colors, gradient backgrounds have a more layered visual presentation.

For another example, the translucent bright color picture gradient mask and gradient arrows of the PPT we see now make the picture look very delicate and designed.

You can also set the fill color of the text to a bright gradient color to make the text look bright and stunning.

You can also see bright gradient colors on the official websites of many companies:

If you are worried that you have no sense of color and cannot create beautiful and natural gradient colors, don’t worry. Because good-looking gradient colors are never matched by yourself, let’s share two websites that provide a variety of gradient color schemes, each of which is particularly beautiful.

This is a UI background gradient color combination that designers often need to use. Currently, 180 gradient colors are provided, which can be used as the content background of any part of the PPT.

The method used is to take a screenshot of the color you like, insert it into the PPT, and then use the color picker in the PPT to extract the color.

This website is mainly for sharing beautiful gradient colors. There are nearly hundreds of gradient color schemes, and you can choose and match them according to your own style.

The so-called picture overlay is to superimpose another picture on a background picture. This design can solve the problem of the image size being too small and not suitable as a full image background.

We can enlarge and blur the image as the background, and then superimpose the original image on top. This design can be seen in many advertisements and posters. I once went to Kunming on a business trip and saw a poster with this design on the billboard at Kunming Airport.

I used this technique in the PPT works I customized for clients before. This is the effect before modification, and the picture is smaller.

This is the modified effect. The copywriting content on the right side is relatively small. In order to make the area in the lower right corner not look too empty, a sprout icon symbolizing growth has been added.

If there are a large number of pictures that need to be displayed on the page, you can make this kind of neat table-format puzzle.

You can also stack a large number of pictures as backgrounds on the page to enhance the atmosphere of the page and express a large number of concepts. The design of the puzzle can be seen in many conference PPTs.

To realize the design of such a large number of puzzles, there is an artifact that can easily do it: Collagelt. Using this puzzle artifact, with the help of preset puzzle styles, you can complete the layout of puzzles in various styles by simply dragging the mouse.

When your image is not wide enough to fill the entire screen, you can flip the image, such as left and right, up and down, so as to still keep the focus at the visual center of the screen. At the same time, mirroring of the same elements often brings unexpected surprises.

With the help of the brush, the graphics are filled in, breaking the smoothness of the traditional rectangular shape of the picture, and it feels as artistic as the picture drawn with a brush. A brush is actually a special shape that can be filled with colors and pictures like a rectangle or an ellipse. You can get a copy of the brush material by replying: Brush in the background of the Happy Office official account.

The so-called picture wording is to change the filling color of the text from the traditional color filling to the picture filling. Directly in the text color filling function, select picture filling, and you can fill the picture into the text as the picture word.

The cover of the PPT for the reading notes of the book "Jobs' Magic Speech" I made uses picture words as the title of the cover text, making the text look more refined and designed.

These are the 8 most creative graphic and text layout styles in PPT. You might as well try each style when you have time.
