Are you looking to take your Google Slides presentations to the next level? One way to make your slides more dynamic and engaging is by embedding 3D models into them. With the capability to display 3D models directly within your slides, you can create immersive and interactive presentations that captivate your audience. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to embed a 3D model in Google Slides.
Step 1: Prepare Your 3D Model
Before you can embed a 3D model in Google Slides, you'll need to have a compatible 3D model file. Google Slides supports 3D models in the .glb and .gltf formats. Make sure your 3D model is saved in one of these formats before proceeding to the next step.
Step 2: Open Your Google Slides Presentation
Now that you have your 3D model ready, open the Google Slides presentation where you want to embed the 3D model. Navigate to the slide where you want the 3D model to appear.
Step 3: Insert the 3D Model
In Google Slides, go to the slide where you want to insert the 3D model. Click on 'Insert' in the top menu, and then select 'Image.' In the 'Insert Image' window, click on the 'Choose an image to upload' button. Instead of selecting an image file, click on 'Choose from Drive' to select the 3D model file from your Google Drive. Once the 3D model file is selected, click on 'Insert' to add the 3D model to your slide.
Step 4: Adjust the 3D Model
After inserting the 3D model into your slide, you can resize and reposition it as needed. Click on the 3D model to access the resize handles, allowing you to adjust the size of the model. You can also drag the model to reposition it on the slide.
Step 5: Interact with the 3D Model
Once the 3D model is embedded in your slide, you can interact with it during your presentation. When you present your slides, viewers can click and drag the 3D model to rotate and view it from different angles, providing an interactive experience.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can easily embed a 3D model into your Google Slides presentations, adding a new dimension of interactivity and engagement to your slideshows. Whether you're delivering a classroom lecture, a business pitch, or a creative project, incorporating 3D models can help you communicate your ideas more effectively and leave a lasting impression on your audience.
