Here are some Do's and Don'ts when it comes to completing your Power Point slide portion of the video project.

To help you get started, take a look at the sample Power Point slides from previous projects.



This is an example of what I consider to be great slides. The person has chosen an appropriate background color and several pictures on each slide. The title of the slide is clearly stated. The narration for the slide was already written in the storyboard, so not much more is needed. Finally, enough pictures have been chosen to illustrate the information and the pictures are spread out over several slides.



This is an example of another great set of slides with minor tweaking. The person has some great pictures, but also included the narration on the slides. Remember, your narration will be SPOKEN (like a podcast) so very few words are needed on the slides itself. The only thing needed to take these slides from good to great is to remove the words (save them though as they are the narration script), enlarge the pictures and perhaps add a few more pictures if need be.



This is an example of slides that are just okay. Notice there is little background color or any words on the slides to indentify what is going on in th pictures. Although there are plenty of pictures, they are crammed on to just two slides. It would be better to space them out over more slides, make the pictures larger, add background color and a few words to either title the slides or caption the pictures.
