Building your presentations

Use a clear font

As big as possible

Never go smaller than 36 point

Keep your alignment consistent

Avoid bolds, italics and bullet points

Think carefully about your background

Have you got branding?

Put it on every slide

11

Choose a colour palette e.g.

R0 G118 B192

Put the name of your project on every slide

This is Ben.Ben is cool.

So what should you put in your presentation?

Linda

1. Why we need it: what's the problem?

Linda

2. What we can do now that we couldn't do before– because you built this amazing thing

Linda

3. How you did it: data, tools, code...

Linda

Be humble and welcome feedback from your audience – it helps you build better things

Linda

Have fun

End at the beginning…
