# How to record slideshow in Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac

# How to record slideshow in Microsoft PowerPoint for Mac

You can record your PowerPoint presentation—or a single slide—and capture voice, ink gestures, and your video presence. When completed, it's like any other presentation. You can play it for your audience in a Slide Show or you can save the presentation as a video file. So, instead of just "handing the deck" to someone, people can see your presentation with the passion and personality intact.
## Record your presentation
1. To launch Recording Studio, select the **Record&#160;**button in the top right corner or select **Record > From Beginning or From Current Slide**![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/8/0/7/380738c02591e400/1fe18e8f-7a01-4b38-b8e3-9e352c_100jye2.png)
 **Pro Tip:&#160;**Want to personalize your camera feed to go with your slide content? Create your slide with cameo before recording. Select **Recording > Cameo** and then select **Camera&#160;**format to style your camera feed.
