Slide Notes

The use of images can greatly enhance your talk, but it's not as easy as just putting up a picture instead of words.

Images have their own syntax. They require a clarity of message, and an understanding of perspective and placement. In a presentation, how an image will relate to the text on the slide is also important.

Here are my tips for using images well in your next talk.

Untitled Slide

  • Wer nicht kann was er will muss das wollen was er kann, denn das zu wollen was er nicht kann wäre töricht
Instead focus on the message. What idea do you want people to take away from the slide.

The human mind delights in variety and flavor. Don't miss an opportunity to take your message to a higher level by forgetting about trying to match the image to the text.

WAS DENKT IHR ÜBER IHN

Images do not always have to have meaning, but can suggest a mood or support the text in an abstract way. Soft focus or blurred images force the eye back to the text rather than draw it away.

WAS FINDEN WIR?

Framing is an important skill when using images. How you place the image on the slide can dramatically change the impact or meaning of the image.
