Objective 8 Apply an Animation Scheme

Animation refers to the movement of slides and slide elements on and off the screen during an electronic slide show. An animation scheme contains predefined animations for slide placeholders, including titles, subtitles, and bulleted lists. You can apply an animation scheme to individual slides, selected slides, or all of the slides in a presentation.
