Material preparation
● Who’s the audience?
● What do they expect?
● What’s the main goal of presentation?
● How much time do I have?
● What do I want them to remember?
● How many slides to prepare?
● Which slide transition effects?
● Which animations?
Brainstorming
● Do it offline
● No criticism
● Only creation, no editing
● Lots and lots of ideas
Restrictions are needed for creativity
Linearization & slide creation
● Mostly 1 slide per ideao Unless too lazy like me
● Several slides if needed
● Empty slides not to disturbo Maybe some nice neutral picture
● Prefer putting notes
Unleash your thought
1. Define main thesis
2. Show context
3. Unveil thesis
4. Example + proof
5. Show counterarguments
6. One more example
7. Summary or suggestion
