Free Lynda.com Video – Design 101: Presentations
Did you ever have to put together a presentation and speak in front of an audience? Speakers at events like PePcon and The InDesign Conference make it look easy. But of course, it isn’t. It takes knowledge, talent, preparation, and experience to really get it right. And it also takes a well-designed set of presentation slides. Even the most charismatic speakers won’t connect with an audience if they’re showing a bunch of unorganized, uninteresting, and unreadable slides. Fortunately, you never have to be in that situation, because the new Lynda.com video series Design 101: Presentations by design master John McWade has you covered. In the course, John shows how to leave the standard PowerPoint and Keynote templates behind and create your own custom slides with solid typography and striking imagery.
In the free movie below, John talks about finding the right structure and pace for your presentation, by taking it one point at a time. Check it out!
