This Screenshot PowerPoint tutorial demonstrates how to use a simple effect in PowerPoint to ‘zoom in’ on a part of a screenshot. This can be a useful technique as often screenshots are too small for the audience to read. Particularly useful for those in technology, but also relevant for other fields.
This Flash presentation will launch in full screen mode.

Hello,
Thank you for the help and the tips.
How can you make zoom effect on a part of the picture and let the non zoomed parts be “surbrillant”? (It’s done in your video)
Thank you

Hi,
In this case, we have used a combination of two images and a semi-transparent layer. The main image is copied onto the slide first. Then a box is created to precisely cover the image. By changing the colour fill of this box, you can make it a semi-transparent white, so that the image is ‘ghosted’ into the background (or ‘surbrilliant’). Finally, we then add a cropped version of the zoomed image section and add it over the top of everything so that it stands out.
The following PowerPoint tutorial video shows you how to do this (and a few other ways that it can be achieved) at about 5 minutes 30 seconds in.

Hope that this helps,
