Step 1: Create the base shape with text
First create a rectangular block using ‘Rectangle’ tool in auto shapes menu. Add text to the shape using ‘Edit text’ option.Step 2: Apply 3D perspective and bevel
Right click on the rectangle and go to 3D rotation option. Use the preset under ‘Perspective’ called as ‘Perspective relaxed’.Step 3: Add text shadow effect
Go to Text Effect options.You can also reach the text effects options by selecting the text, right clicking and going to ‘Format shape’ option and ‘Text options’.
Increase the size of the shadow. Increase the distance. Change the angle too. Play with the distance and angle parameters till you are happy with the result. Here are the measures for the effect we achieved:You can vary the 3D perspective of the underlying shape the way you like. The text can be made to pop out by varying the angle and distance of the shadow applied to text.
Go ahead and try the variation to your title slides. Quick Note: Applying interesting text effects is one way to impress your audience. Another way to impress your audience is to add high quality charts, graphics and diagrams to your business slides. However, it takes a lot of time to create high quality graphics and diagrams from scratch. That is why we came up with our PowerPoint graphics and Charts CEO Pack Bundle for busy business presenters like you. All the templates are fully editable. Just choose the template that matches your thought and replace the sample text with your own text.You may like: Tutorial for PowerPoint 3D Cube
