When creating a Prezi presentation, it’s in your best interest to avoid the conventional method of thinking in terms of a progression of slides. Instead, try to get into the mindset of picturing your presentation as a journey you’re taking your audience on. This video offers suggestions for planning and shaping your presentation before creating your Prezi.
- [Instructor] As I touched on in the previous video,…when creating a Prezi presentation, it's in your…best interest to avoid the conventional method of thinking…in terms of a progression of slides.…While you could easily create a series of frames…surrounding text or images, and step through them…sequentially, like I'm doing here, doing so in Prezi…is really missing the opportunity to present…your information in a much more engaging way.…When working with a prezi, try to get in the mindset…of picturing your presentation as a journey…you're taking your audience on.…You want to shape a compelling story by figuring out…the best way to present your content.…
Now this doesn't mean you'll necessarily accomplish this…by telling the story in a linear fashion.…That definitely works most of the time,…and it's a natural way to tell a story.…But Prezi also makes it very easy to not just step…through your presentation, but to also sidestep…to related or tangential information, and then return…to the main thread of the presentation.…
