design

Show pictures that tell a story and

support the key point of each slide.

Copyright and branding are actually

important. So… do you think this

watermark is allowed to

be included on this slide?Here’s an example of an OSU social

media cover image featured on the OSU

Branding Guidelines website.

NOAlways ask, never assume.

And ask more than once.

Audio options should be decided upon and tested

thoroughly before each webinar.

Do not include animations.

Dividing content into 10 minute segments allows

participants to refocus their attention…

…or stir a pot of spaghetti.

Prepare a Gannt Chart when planning the webinar to use time wisely

and make sure you are including enough interactive activities to keep

participants engaged.
