FIVE GUIDLINES FOR DESIGNING PRESENTATIONS
It is more than just text. It encompases shape, size, color and texture which affects meaning and the feelings the viewers interprets.
Color
Typography
It is the most powerful visual stimuli. It can be used in the following ways: get attention, direct the eye, categorize, organize, create unity, evoke emotions, and set the mood.
Images
Vision is our most powerful sense, and designing messages that includes images is an highly effective way to get people's attention and to aid in remembering your context. Use full-bleed images as they offer ultimate impact.
Video
Great at showing problems in context or illustrate solutions. Consider background, on screen size, clip length. Vidoes allow for a more engaging experience.
Simplicity
It is the fudamental tenet of all aspects of design and communication, and it is especially important in creation of quantitative information. Use charts, graphs, and tables. Remember three fundamental principles: restrain, reduce and emphasize.
