Guide to Effective Presentations Electronic presentations are one of the most effective tools presenters can use to persuade an audience. There are several ways to enhance your presentation and maximize your effectiveness. The following are guidelines to help you create and deliver a dynamic presentation. a. Types of Presentations Computer Presentations • To present basic information such as graphs, spreadsheets, documents and images, use word processing and spreadsheet applications.
Guide to Effective Presentations • Background colors can subconsciously affect the audience: Red Blue Red—increases viewers’ pulse and breathing and encourages risk taking but can also be associated with financial loss. Blue—has a calming and conservative affect on the audience but can also create boredom among corporate audiences that are often inundated with this background color. Green—stimulates interaction. Green Black Black—conveys finality and certainty.
Guide to Effective Presentations Good Bad Presentation from SHARP 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 Good c. Set-Up When giving a presentation, you need to set the stage both figuratively and literally for success. The way you set up a presentation room will have a great impact on the audience’s perception of you and your message. By manipulating the placement and use of the following tools, you will improve the impact of your presentation.
Guide to Effective Presentations d. Rehearsing & Delivery • The best time to rehearse is the day or evening before, not a couple of hours before, and the best place to rehearse is in the actual room. Rehearsing a speech in a small office is not the same as standing up in front of 100 people in a hotel ballroom or classroom. • Due to varying processor speeds of computers, practice your slide transitions for proper timing.
Glossary Active Digital keystone correction Function to digitally correct a distorted image when the projector is set up at an angle. • Not only does the projector feature anti-aliasing and left-right compression but also up-down compression, maintaining the aspect ratio of 4:3 even if the viewing angle changes.
