If you are creating a self-running presentation, you might want to add
a narration to emphasize the points you make. PowerPoint lets you
record your own narration as you rehearse your slide show (New!). You can record a narration before you run a slide show, or
you can record it during the presentation and include audience
comments. As you record the narration, you can pause or stop the
narration at any time. When you play back a narration, the recording is
synchronized with the presentation, including all slide transitions and
animations. You can also delete a voice narration, as with any other
PowerPoint object. You will need to set up a microphone and a sound
card before recording a slide show.
