Yes, there is a way to get animated PowerPoint slides into Premiere. This is how I do it. I capture the animation with a program called CAMTASIA 2.0 Once I capture the activity on my monitor screen, I save it as an .avi file. Then I bring the .avi file into Premiere.
Camtasia is a "screen capturing" software. But, it captures more than static still images. It captures all of the motion that goes on while using your computer monitor. Camtasia is one of several programs that are used by computer training companies to teach people how to use software. Several companies have used Camtasia to put together a training DVD that teaches people how to use various versions of Premiere. The company called Video Professor that teaches people how to use microsoft software such as ACCESS, POWERPOINT, WORD, EXCEL, and FRONTPAGE uses Camtasia to create these training programs which that burn to a CD or a DVD. A lot of times you can purchase Camtasia from Ebay at a reduced price. Or you can go to their website and purchase it online or by snail mail. You can download a trial version for free and try it out for 30 days. If you are a student or a teacher you can purchase it at half price. I can't remember exactly how much I paid for it, I think it was around $150 because I bought it at student rate. Full retail price is $300. There are some other programs that do the same thing, some cheaper, some more expensive. But, it seems like Camtasia is the most popular program and very stable.
