Slides cannot possibly hold all the information you plan to deliver during the
time it is being screened. NO WAY. A slide deck IS NOT a presentation, YOU are
the presentation. By this time I bet you have completely forgotten I’m on
stage, right? This is why this kind of slides are FORBIDEN.
People can read faster than you can speak (well, most of the time anyway) so
there is no way your speech can compete in attention time with the written
word. Reading will beat you to death every single time.
Further than that, does it really make sense to place ALL THE INFORMATION
Got it?
on a slide or group of slides? We’ll be creating a slideument, not a
presentation, and we don’t really want that, right? There is a better approach
for this, really. And you’re about to learn about it once I finalise reading this
slide and move to the next one. Are you ready???
