Make your presentation stand out with these digital design and editing tips.
In many circumstances of our training or work experience we are faced with the moment in which we must present our work and we have very little time available. That is why the use of digital tools will be crucial to achieve our goals.
To achieve a high-impact presentation, it is important to start the presentation with an attention-grabbing headline, an engaging image, or a rhetorical question that creates curiosity.
Regarding the design, it is important that the same template is always used, preferably with a plain and neutral background, and that the use of colors is limited to the same palette without adding distracting elements. One of the main mistakes is inserting only text in each slide and then start the slideshow. It is also important to avoid lists and enumerations, one idea per slide is recommended and never more than four bullets aligned and separated by a greater line spacing.
In relation to typeface, it is always better to choose sans serif and not combine more than two styles in an average size of 22 points. It is preferable to avoid italics, capital letters and underlining that generally make reading difficult.
Only use images that help to understand and remember concepts and ideas and not as a decorative element. Do not overdo it with the use of animations (some simple effects to speed up the reading rhythm) or complex graphics that require too much time to be explained. Warm colors work together to bring out the most relevant data.
Finally, don't forget to say thank you and close the presentation with positive and inspiring words.
