Visual and Oral Presentations




One of the hardest things for some college students to do is giving oral and visual presentations. A lot of preparation time goes into giving an oral and visual presentation. If the hardest part of the presentation is not selecting a title, then the hardest part is deciding which presentation medium will be used. I am personally tired of the formats and features of Microsoft office. I really prefer Prezi over any of the modern presentation mediums. This blog post will inform you guys about the features of Prezi. I will also write a little about my personal experience with Prezi during my first time using the medium.

Draw out an overarching design of the Prezi. Think of how the presentation would look if it was completely zoomed out. Some of the most successful Prezis have a structure that the path of frames will follow.Use the main points of your presentation as the anchors for the path your Prezi will take.

The template of your Prezi defines how the text, colors and objects will all interact on the landscape. You can pick between 2D and 3D template. 2D themes are flat and the camera moves across the canvas. 3D themes allow you to zoom in and out of the background. I found selecting a template some what difficult because I wasn't in total control of how the presentation looked.

I would recommend an individual giving an oral and visual presentation to use Prezi. I was tricked into paying $59 unfortunately, but the presentation that I presented looked beautiful.
