Presenter best practices
Adobe recommends these best practices for creating presentations:
•
Design your online presentation based on the bandwidth capabilities of your audience. If your audience has fast,
broadband connections, you can create a graphic-intensive presentation that includes many animations.
However, if your audience has slower connection speeds, consider using graphic images only (no animations) or
no graphics at all, to ensure that your audience has a good viewing experience. Presenter also enables you to lower
the quality level of images and audio files to create content suitable for audiences with low bandwidth.
•
Consider creating a written script before recording audio for your presentation. Speaking into a microphone can
be more difficult than giving a presentation to a live audience. To ensure a smooth delivery that covers all of your
important points, consider creating a script for the entire presentation before recording audio for it. (If you have
slide notes written in PowerPoint, you can easily import them into Presenter to use as a script or as the basis of a
script.)
•
Add animations to enhance the overall presentation, if your audience has fast connections. Presenter supports
PowerPoint animations so that you can create powerful, animated, multimedia presentations. Animations add
impact to your message and improve the overall viewing experience of users. (Animations must be set to On
Click.)
•
Add video to presentation slides or to the sidebar to reuse information you already have. Video is appropriate if
your audience has high bandwidth.
•
Create presentations that are a manageable size. A single PowerPoint presentation typically corresponds to a
single module or course. Usually a module contains 20–40 slides and results in a 15–45 minute session for users.
