Document Magic: Turn Text into Narrated Videos with Copilot

Introduction

Most organisations have a collection of important documents that everyone needs to read but getting people to actually read them is harder than it should be.

For many people, watching and listening to a recording is a better way of gleaning the information they need to know.

However, creating a video to teach a topic is time consuming, requires expensive software and who wants to be the one to record the narration?

Or is it easier than that?

With Microsoft 365 Copilot, you can quickly take a Word Document, turn it into a PowerPoint presentation, generate a transcript and then get the transcript voiced by a range of different automated voice actors while editing the presentation into a video using Microsoft's Clipchamp, which you get with Microsoft 365.

Most documents will take less than an hour of your time to convert and you'll get faster at it the more you do it.

This course is specifically tailored to using Microsoft 365 and Microsoft 365 Copilot, but you can do similar things with Google Workspace and Gemini.
