    I have to tell you that at the beginning - the first two slides maybe - I was skeptic - I thought your presentation is good only for professionals . I went through all the 60 slides and loved them. Although I am a very amateur pps creator , I guess I will keep in mind many of your advices ! It means that your pps was presented very well :)))

    Thank you !

  12. breaking “it” down
    • What’s ahead...
    Simple steps Short suggestions Decent images
    • Communication is about the transfer of emotion…
    • Tell your audience what they need to know
    • Tell a story…but not “War and Peace”
    • Make – and use – cue cards
    • Use consistent design standards – make slides that reinforce your words, not repeat them
    • Create a leave-behind
    • Create a feedback cycle
    • FOCUS ON CONTENT
    • Bullets kill.
    • No cheesy transitions, dissolves, goofy sounds, etc.
    • Don’t use handouts of your slides
    • Choose a plain font and stick to it
    • Minimize text per slide
    • Use font sizes large enough to view from
    • anywhere in the room
    • try NOT to use fonts smaller than 28
    • Choose a consistent background and keep it
    • throughout the presentation
    • If you want a different background it should be used to bring attention to ONE slide
    • Choose one type of transition (this is not a movie)
    • Use complementary
    • colors
    • (colors that are opposite
    • on the color wheel)
    • … if you do it right, every time they think of what you said, they’ll see the image (and vice versa).
