What kinds of multimedia can I use in PowerPoint?

- File storage - media files (other than pictures) must be saved in the same location as the PowerPoint to work appropriately
- File size - video clips of long duration or large screen size can take up a great deal of memory
- Copyright and Fair Use must be considered carefully in utilizing media in PowerPoint - particularly if you wish to post them on the web
- Posting PowerPoints with video clips online requires extra steps - an explanation
- When is it too much?
