Garr Reynolds (of Presentation Zen) at SlideShare
Nancy Duarte gave a short talk to kick off the evening
She talked about how we are born storytellers, but loose the skill
We had cleared out all the desks to make place to sit
3 ways to use slides: document, teleprompter & presentation
Garr began with talking about Japanese aesthetic
and finding zen in presentations
He talked about bad presentations
and some really bad ones
People were engaged
Garr called the room layout very “California”
Nancy & Mark from Duarte Design
Garr’s mantra
Changes in presentation design
a hazy picture of Bush & Blair
“ Presentations are a balance of three rhetorical proofs: ethos (ethical), pathos (emotional) and logos (logical)”
Yes, Garr did talk about SlideShare!
The food and Kaliya Hamlin
yes, we had cupcakes! yes,
the question-answe session
