4 Upload and View Files in a VoiceThread Presentation

  1. Navigate to https://voicethread.psu.edu/
  2. Log in using your PSU user ID and password.
  3. Create a new VoiceThread from any VoiceThread page by clicking on the “Create” button at the top.
  4. The next screen will prompt you to add files. You can either:
    • drag your files from your computer and drop them onto the Create page. Those files will upload and process automatically.
    • click on “Add Media,” select “My Computer,” and then choose your files.

      This will add VoiceThread “slides” to your presentation. Each file you upload will be one “slide.”

      NOTE: You can drag and drop these slides to change their order.
  5. Add supporting files to your recorded presentation for your audience to view and comment on:
    • The slides you used to record your presentation
    • Images that support or are included in your presentation (including zoomed-in images from your poster)
    • A references page
  6. There are a number of types of files you can upload to your presentation:
    • Video files (.mp4, .mov)
    • Image files (JPEG, GIF, PNG, and BMP)
    • Document files (DOC, DOCX, PDF, ODT, XLS, XLSX, and ODS)
    • Presentation files (PPT, PPTX, Keynote, ODP, and PDF)
      NOTE: When you upload a presentation file, each slide (or page for PDF files) will upload as a separate slide in VoiceThread. 
  7. To view your presentation, click “Comment” at the top of the page.
  8. Use the arrows at the bottom right of the page to navigate through the files (slides) that you added to your presentation.
  9. Press the play button at the bottom left of the screen to play any presentation videos.
