10 tips for a top presentation
- Prepare before you present - be sure you know what you are talking about!
- Decide on the audience - and use appropriate colours and images for your chosen audience
- Write a script - do not try to bluff your way through - write down some things you will say.
- Keep your slide simple - don't let colours clash or use too many animations - the information is important and might be lost because your presentation is making your audience dizzy or giving them a headache!
- Use an opening and a closing slide - an attention grabbing first slide at the start and a summary one at the end.
- Keep the content of each slide to a minimum - a 'rule of thumb' is six words per line and no more than five lines.
- Make sure your audience can read the text between
30 point and 60 point is best.
- Don't use too many slides - if it takes two minutes to read a slide, then a ten minute talk needs only five slides.
- Test any animation - do movies, animations and sound work?
- Rehearse - practice you show
