This tutorial will show you how to create a Silhouette in PowerPoint. After reading the title of the post, you must be thinking, “Creating Silhouettes”? Why would I need to create a silhouette? Well, the answer lies in its meaning, silhouettes mean A drawing consisting of the outline of something, especially a human profile, filled in with a solid color.
Silhouettes can help you in creating really professional presentations. You must be thinking, HOW? Well, let’s take an example. Suppose you want to present the demographics of a particular city in your presentation. To represent two genders, male and female, what would you like to choose? Real pictures or just representations? Real pictures won’t work in professional presentation as, generally, you are not presenting for particular sex, creed, race, or religion. So we are just representations or commonly known as Silhouettes.
