Can You See It?


Want to make your next presentation even more engaging and memorable?

Create your slide deck using pictures... only pictures.




Select a series of images that illustrate your point

(this will also help you focus your message).







Sequence the images so they tell a story.







And, as you speak, let the images carry your audience

from where they are

to where you want to take them.


Imagery kindles emotions, imagination and personal connections.

Your audience will be more engaged during your talk,

and remember the experience longer after they leave.


To play with this idea, you can:

- Watch National Geographic's David Griffin use this approach.

- Find free images at Wikimedia Commons and Google Images.

- Read Presentation Zen.
