10. For slides I use KEYNOTE.
But even when I use slides, I will
usually BLACKEN THE SCREEN
EVERY NOW AND THEN TO TELL
A STORY. Stories add meaning to
what we are talking about
- John Zimmer
12. Your best presentation tool is
YOUR POINT.
Knowing your point (what you
need your specific audience
to know/do/be) drives all
other decisions.
- Stephanie Evergreen
14. PowerPoint is a sign of the quality
of your presentation – it can be
powerful if used correctly.
My tools are a combination of
voice, sound, video, lighting etc.
MY FAVORITE PROPS ARE THE
PHOTOS THAT I’VE TAKEN
MYSELF.
- Petri Rajaniemi
16. I usually start my presentations by
drawing MIND MAPS. I might use a
software for that but doodling on
paper works fine, too.
I also use a DIGITAL NOTEBOOK
for all the loose ideas, links and
sketches throughout the process.
- Outi Lammi
22. My favorite partner tool to PowerPoint is
GOOGLE SLIDES.
It is a phenomenal tool for translating
brain-stormed content to slides. I can
quickly access it from anywhere to
capture ideas on the fly and collaborate
with my team prior to porting it into
PowerPoint for design work and polish.
- Lea Pica
24. CANVA is an online tool that makes
graphic design really easy. It has a
great number of pre-designed
templates for presentation which you
can quickly edit.
In short, you can quickly create
good-looking presentation slides
without being a designer.
