For information about the making of this Presentation, click the
Info button.Source: ClipartMaking an excellent presentation:I have
made my presentation look visually appealing by choosing an
attractive design and adjusting the colour scheme to suit my
logo.The colours I chose are warm colours making the company seem
more inviting. Ive also used a sound file of applause from clipart
on the first page to encourage a happy atmosphere, and promote the
slogan for happy actors.
Ive dedicated some slides to be title pages, so that the viewer
is well informed about the presentations contents and what to
expect. I have also included a title on all of my charts and tables
explaining what they are illustrating.
Ive included two attractive pictures of the most popular actors
and modified them to look like headshots giving the slide an
altogether more professional look.
I have adapted the charts and graphs by giving them various
special effects (For Example, Shadows, Bevels, 3D effects) in order
to catch the viewers eyes, and add some variation to hold their
attention.
Graphics:The transitions have been adapted to present the
information impressively, and add some dimension to the
slideshow.
The graphics used are from two individual sources (I used Google
images for the headshots of the most popular actors, and clip art
for the currency signs on the actor commission slide.)
navigationI have added navigation buttons to every slide, to
provide an alternative method of moving to the next slide without
the fancy exit animations. This saves time for those of us who
simply want to whizz through the slides.
On the last slide, I have included a navigation button to the
hidden slides, so that if the viewer wishes to continue viewing the
production of the slide show, they are able to, however, if this
button is not clicked, the slide simply finishes. This allows me to
include extra slides, without really exceeding the limit of slides:
6-8. I designed my logo to represent happiness, and joy (because
actors and actresses are people who are passionate about theyre
work and generally enjoy what they are doing), by forming the cTo
into the eyes and nose of a smiling face.The colours I chose for
the colour schemes are gender-neutral, to ensure the company
receives customers from both genders. I also chose simple, warm
colours, to represent contentment and a feeling of belonging in the
society of performing arts. The shapes are simple and I created
them to give the logo some design in the background. I made it as
simple as possible, because the simpler the logo, the more
effective it is.I outlined the words in white, to ensure they stand
out and bring out the text. The smiling face is a creative and yet
again simple idea; that represents happiness. The shape of my logo
is ideal for inserting as headers for letters, posters, emails,
websites and adverts, because of its flat base which allows it to
be places comfortably without any odd bits sticking out into the
text, and large lettering so it doesnt have to be big in order to
be readable.The face is part of the text makes the reader want to
know more and read the full name of the company. This will make it
memorable, they will recognise Actors Associates next time they see
it which is great because that is indeed the initial point of a
logo.
