1 CommentMost people have a preconception of what should be included on the Title slide, however first impressions count and in this, the first episode of the Slide-IQ podcast, I explain how less is often more.
Presenter View in Keynote
Leave a commentSince I spend a large part of my professional life creating and delivering presentations I need be to intimately familiar with the slideware application I use. My software of choice is Apple’s Keynote which is part of the iWork suite.
My presentations are self contained in terms of any notes I make require being stored within my presentation in the Presenter Notes section of the file. To take full advantage of this I use the Presenter Display options to show a specific range of presenter tools on my secondary monitor in the precise configuration I prefer.
