many different sources….
BROWSE PINTERESTHere at the Presented offices we are often searching
for great design themes and find inspiration for the
whole team by sharing our Pinterest board. It also
helps us communicate to each other exactly what we
mean by “you know, that ‘cool’ one”

MAGAZINES
Magazines provide great
ideas for layout solutions,
and also boast a whole range
of fonts, colors and pictures.
Magazine style is often targeted
to the audience type – just like
a presentation should be.

WATCH MOVIESEvery movie has a great team working behind it,
and you’ll see great ideas and themes at work in
every scene. From blockbusters to B-movies, even
the silly ones can inspire great visual creativity.

DRAW A LOTIf anyone tells you that you
need lessons to start to
draw great ideas, this
person is wrong: if you
give a child a crayon
and a blank sheet, they
will draw ideas beyond
the sheet to the walls! We
all have it into our blood,
we just need to train.

GET MORE EXPERIENCEBeing creative for one
slide isn’t a big deal…
but can you keep the
standard high for 30 or
more slides? The more
experience we have the easier
it gets… so keep practicing to
become skilled at making dry
material come to life.

LIVE CREATIVELY
SAY YES TO CHALLENGESEven in your personal life: have a go.
By accepting experiences that life offers
(within reason) you can start to see the
world in a new creative light.
To be creative is like writing, but you need
experiences instead of words. So fill your
mind with experiences and let your mind
get out of your own box sometimes.

YOU MIGHT NEED PATIENCEImagine that you are in a green forest, it
may take time before you notice that the
trees are different to each other, and that
there are patterns on leaves, designs and
colors. Even if you are surrounded by
green, there are thousands of tones to
explore: so you might need patience to fully
appreciate the creativity around you.

CLEAR YOUR MIND
Life can be chaotic: we need
to learn how to clear our
minds from distractions.
We all have our own
methods: find yours!
Whilst some people say they
can’t work with clutter around
them – the truth is that we
often make excuses for why
we can’t focus.
