- [Instructor] In Storyline two you'll be creating slides…with content in your eLearning projects, and one way…to direct the attention of your learners…to a specific piece of information or content on a slide is…through the use of contrast.…Contrast is all about making items stand out…by emphasizing differences in things like size, color,…shape and a whole lot more.…So let's take a look at the slides…in this Storyline two project called Contrast.story.…You can open it up from the chapter one folder…of your exercise files if you have them,…or just take a look at what I'm showing you here on screen.…
In slide one you can see the title is No Color Contrast.…Well if you take a real good look at it and try…to figure what stands out for you, it's probably nothing.…Now let's take a look at another version of slide one…by clicking slide two over here on the left-hand side.…Now what stands out?…Well it's probably the character.…By removing some of the color of the marble arch…in the background our full-color character really stands out…
