How to apply enter and exit effects to an object

Using enter and exit effects with the characters and props in your Powtoon can add elements of fun, drama, and suspense—to ensure that your Powtoon will be unforgettable.

 

Once you have added an object to the slide, you can select with what effect that object appears (enters) and then disappears (exits) from the slide. For even more emphasis, sound can be added to these effects.

In the example below, the character enters from the left and also exits to the left (in the opposite direction).

3. On the timeline, click the effect that you want to work on. In the example below, the enter effect
    is selected.
    ► Note that the guidelines in the following steps also apply to exit effects.

4. Select the effect that best matches how you want your object to appear on the slide.
    ► Before making your selection, you can scroll through the effects and hover over each of them
         to see a preview.

5. Optional: Click Add Hand if you want to add a hand (male or female) to the effect you
    selected in the previous step. This will create an effect of a human hand moving the object onto
    the slide.
    ► Note that Add Hand will be enabled only if a hand can be added to the effect you selected.

6. Optional: Click Add Sound if you want to add a sound to the effect you selected.
    ► Before making your selection, you can scroll through the sounds and hover over each of them
         to hear a preview.
