The document compares scenes from the author's thriller project to similar scenes from The Hunger Games, Lethal Weapon, and Zero Dark Thirty. For each comparison, the author analyzes the characters, plot lines, actions, editing techniques, camera work, and titles to evaluate which source material is more effective for their project. The author makes minor adjustments to borrowing scenes to fit their storyline and time constraints but overall finds elements from each reference to be useful models.

The document discusses key concepts in software marketing including customer value and satisfaction, exchanges and relationships, and markets. It states that marketers must set the right level of expectations for customers to feel satisfied without being under or overpromised.

2. Tips to be Covered
Outlines
Slide Structure
Fonts
Colour
Background
Graphs
Spelling and Grammar
Conclusions
Questions
3. Outline
Make your 1st
or 2nd
slide an outline of your
presentation
– Ex: previous slide
Follow the order of your outline for the rest of
the presentation
Only place main points on the outline slide
– Ex: Use the titles of each slide as main points
4. Slide Structure – Good
Use 1-2 slides per minute of your presentation
Write in point form, not complete sentences
Include 4-5 points per slide
Avoid wordiness: use key words and phrases
only
5. Slide Structure - Bad
This page contains too many words for a
presentation slide. It is not written in point
form, making it difficult both for your audience
to read and for you to present each point.
Although there are exactly the same number of
points on this slide as the previous slide, it
looks much more complicated. In short, your
audience will spend too much time trying to
read this paragraph instead of listening to you.
6. Slide Structure – Good
Show one point at a time:
– Will help audience concentrate on what you are
saying
– Will prevent audience from reading ahead
– Will help you keep your presentation focused
7. Slide Structure - Bad
Do not use distracting animation
Do not go overboard with the animation
Be consistent with the animation that you use
8. Fonts - Good
Use at least an 18-point font
Use different size fonts for main points and
secondary points
– this font is 24-point, the main point font is 28-point,
and the title font is 36-point
Use a standard font like Times New Roman or
Arial
9. Fonts - Bad
If you use a small font, your audience won’t be able to read what you have written
CAPITALIZE ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. IT
IS DIFFICULT TO READ
Don’t use a complicated font
10. Colour - Good
Use a colour of font that contrasts sharply with
the background
– Ex: blue font on white background
Use colour to reinforce the logic of your
structure
– Ex: light blue title and dark blue text
Use colour to emphasize a point
– But only use this occasionally
11. Colour - Bad
Using a font colour that does not contrast with
the background colour is hard to read
Using colour for decoration is distracting and
annoying.
Using a different colour for each point is
unnecessary
– Using a different colour for secondary points is also
unnecessary
Trying to be creative can also be bad
12. Background - Good
Use backgrounds such as this one that are
attractive but simple
Use backgrounds which are light
Use the same background consistently
throughout your presentation
13. Background – Bad
Avoid backgrounds that are distracting or
difficult to read from
Always be consistent with the background that
you use
14. Graphs - Good
Use graphs rather than just charts and words
– Data in graphs is easier to comprehend & retain
than is raw data
– Trends are easier to visualize in graph form
Always title your graphs
15. Graphs - Bad
January February March April
Blue Balls 20.4 27.4 90 20.4
Red Balls 30.6 38.6 34.6 31.6
16. Graphs - Good

18. Graphs - Bad
Minor gridlines are unnecessary
Font is too small
Colours are illogical
Title is missing
Shading is distracting
19. Spelling and Grammar
Proof your slides for:
– speling mistakes
– the use of of repeated words
– grammatical errors you might have make
If English is not your first language, please
have someone else check your presentation!
20. Conclusion
Use an effective and strong closing
– Your audience is likely to remember your last words
Use a conclusion slide to:
– Summarize the main points of your presentation
– Suggest future avenues of research
21. Questions??
End your presentation with a simple question
slide to:
– Invite your audience to ask questions
– Provide a visual aid during question period
– Avoid ending a presentation abruptly
