Dynamic Content transitions are new transitions effects introduced in PowerPoint 2011 on the Mac side, they already existed within PowerPoint 2010 for Windows. When a Dynamic Content transition is applied to your slide, it will work on the entire slide content at a time, but not on the slide background. This makes the transition occur on your content that moves independently on and off the screen. PowerPoint 2011 provides seven effects for Dynamic Content transitions. Do experiment with these effects for direction and timing to create some great-looking presentations.
A sample presentation with all dynamic transitions can be seen later on this page.
Make sure you have a presentation with some slide background and content. It is helpful (but not necessary) if your slides have a background that's not just a solid color, as in the example slides shown in Figure 1, below. To learn about formatting slide backgrounds, refer to our Format Slide Background in PowerPoint 2011 for Mac tutorial.
