March's Tip for Effective Presentations

Make Your Presentation Come Alive

Animation is a valuable tool that can help you produce professional, effective business presentations. It's also, of course, a great way to make your presentation come alive, whether you're using PowerPoint or Flash. Adding movement to text, graphics, and images creates a dynamic, engaging experience for your audience. Animated effects can help you pace the delivery of information, illustrate processes, reinforce key concepts, and add visual interest and impact.

Use with Caution

But beware! Knowing when and where to draw the line between dynamic content and distraction is essential to creating clear and compelling presentations. We have all seen examples of over-the-top animation that ends up undermining a presentation's message. It's not only unprofessional; you will leave your audience feeling irritated and often confused.
