PPT as source file?

Premiere 25.2.1 (build 2)

Mac Studio: 32GB, Sequoia 15.3.1

3 monitors

 

Much of my work involves preparing recorded medical lectures for continuing education viewing. This means my graphics source is almost always a series of PowerPoint slides.

 

Presently, I make corrections to the PowerPoint file, export each slide in it as a PNG file, defining I wat them as 4000x 2250, import the PNG files into Premiere. And then place them on the timeline. Then I scale, place, crop as needed.

 

Every time I update a slide, I have to go back and re export PowerPoint slides to PNG files either singly or as a complete set. Several parts of this are quite cumbersome and time consuming.

 

Is there any chance that much as with Photoshop layers, we could import the PowerPoint file itself in the Premiere with each slide coming in individually? Allow defaults to be changed o import as sizes larger than 1080?

 

Thanks.
