The Wonderful World Of Prezi Presentation Design

By Daphne Bowen


New presentation tools such as prezi have recently emerged in a bid to change how presentations are made. Different prezi presentation design has helped individuals and groups explore uncharted territory in techniques of displaying their data. Its conceptualization has helped bridge the gap between old redundant presentation tools and new exciting technology.

It was founded by three Hungarian programmers very recently in 2009. Its usage targets all kinds of individuals in different professions such as such as teachers students and business executives. It was discovered that audiences are much more likely to pay attention to your presentation if it was more interactive.

Its application is quite easy to understand. The first step is logging in to their online accounts. The new users will have to sign up for new accounts. They will further be required to select an account option either free or a paid account. Getting started is easily illustrated by simple step by step instructional videos available on you tube. This way the new users can get to be quickly familiarized with the basics.

Lets now get to the interesting bit, how to create a presentation design. There are a number of templates on offer that you will be required to choose from. This is important in determining whether your view will be two dimensional or three dimensional. The 3-D templates are more versatile since they allow you to zoom In and out of the background. The text, colors and objects interaction with the landscape are usually determined by the choice of the template.

The themes only go as far giving you the ground work. The actual meat of the content will have to be supplied by you. This should not in any way be a daunting task for if you focus your ideas around the major points of you argument then the rest of the intricate details will be filled naturally.

Key to its evolution is the ability to stand out as a dynamic, non linear tool to expressing ones ideas. This serves to breathe life to an otherwise boring conventional slide approach. The other crucial factor is that it is an open source software available to anybody with access to the internet.

The older generations are however more conservative and prefer to stick to the animal they are more familiar with. This is not surprising judging by the amount of effort, although slight, that is required to gain an understanding of its means of operation. Prezi being web based can in some ways also hinder access say to individuals who may not necessarily have a reliable internet connection. Audiences have also complained of experiencing dizzy spells when exposed to quick moving 3-D illustrations.

In summary, this is a vital tool that if properly understood and embraced can change the way information is relayed to people. The learning curve should not be a hindrance in discovering and unlocking its potential
