Spin a Word Art Animation

Why?

It is a fast and very effective animation you can apply to just about anything, plus you only need one object that is animated, then duplicate it!

I started with a simple Word Art object on my slide.

A Spin Emphasis animation is added, set to medium, direction clockwise and 15 degrees.

The object is duplicated (<Control + d>). Duplicating the Word Art object also duplicates the animation. This animation left as a Spin Emphasis but adjusted to 30 degrees (an increment of 15 degrees).

The second object is duplicated and its animation set to 45 degrees (30 plus 15 degrees).

Ok, so it's tedious. But keep going, duplicating and adding 15 degrees to each duplicated object. That is, until you get to the last one equalling 180 degrees ( a half turn).

If you play the animation like this, you will see them all spin together to different amounts. Last task is to centre all objects in the middle of the slide in both directions. It all ends up as a very cool effect indeed.
