Next, we will create the wave shapes at the bottom of the slide. Here are the steps:

Go to Insert > Shapes and select the rectangle. Draw the rectangle at the bottom of the slide.
Remove the shape outline by selecting No Outline.
Right-click on the rectangle and select Edit Points. Add two more points on the line or border of the rectangle.
Select each new point and make them smooth points.
Adjust the points to create a wave-like shape.
Apply a gradient fill to the shape. Use two stops for the gradient and select the colors using the Eyedropper tool. Adjust the direction of the gradient as needed.
Duplicate the wave shape (press Ctrl + D) and adjust the height and color of the duplicated shape. Send the duplicated shape to the back.
Repeat the process to create additional wave shapes. You can adjust the points of each shape to create a variety of wave designs.

Step 3: Adding the Options (06:56 - 11:07)

Now, we will add the options to the slide:

Select the rounded rectangle from Insert > Shapes and draw a rounded rectangle on the slide. Make the corners less curved and remove the shape outline.
Duplicate the rounded rectangle twice by holding the Ctrl + Shift keys and dragging the shape.
Apply a gradient fill to each rectangle. Use the same colors as the wave shapes and adjust the transparency as needed.
Group the rectangles together by selecting them and pressing Ctrl + G. Then, ungroup them by right-clicking and selecting Ungroup.

Step 4: Inserting Icons and Text (11:43 - 11:58)

Next, insert some icons and add text to each option:

Position the icons on each option.
Go to Insert > Text Box and add a title and detailed text to each option. Format the text as needed.

Step 5: Adding Animations (11:58 - end)

Finally, we will add animations to the options:

Select an option and duplicate the slide.
On the new slide, move the option above or below the slide area.
Apply a Fly In animation to the option. Adjust the direction and duration of the animation as needed.
Repeat the process for the other options.
