PowerPoint presentations have become part of our everyday life in recent years. We have already written about how to create an interactive presentation in a previous blog post, but we have not discussed what makes a presentation slide memorable. In this blog post, we’ve put together some tips to help you create a truly impressive slide.
Delivering a message via the slides
Before you start making presentation slides, it is important to be clear about the message you want to convey. It’s not enough to define the main message of the whole presentation, you also need to define the purpose and content of each presentation slide.
Less is sometimes more
Don’t try to present all the information on one slide. Focus on the key messages and use simple, easy-to-understand text. If there are no definitions or legal references, do not clutter the slides if possible.
The visual appeal of memorable slides
People tend to remember what they see better than what they hear. Take advantage of this and use pictures, diagrams and infographics on your presentation slides. This helps your audience to visualize the information, which in turn helps them not only to listen but also to understand and remember your presentation.
Colors and fonts
The key elements of an easy-to-read, aesthetic presentation are colors and fonts. Make sure the elements used in your presentation are consistent with the style and message of your brand or topic.
Storytelling
People like stories. If they can relate a topic to a story, they can remember better. Use this communication technique by telling real or fictional stories to activate and inspire your audience.
Interactivity
If possible, include interactive elements in your presentation. Polls, short questions or even games can help the audience to actively participate and better understand the topic of the presentation.
Remember! Creating unique and memorable presentation slides is the key to capturing the audience’s attention and communicating effectively. Use Vivicon and the tips above to create outstanding presentation slides.
