What are the things that you think about when starting to create a presentation?
![Page 43: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Font size?
# of Slides?Which colors?
Sans Serif?
Where can I get nice pictures?
![Page 44: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Hmm...

...you should be focusing
on your main message.
![Page 46: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
What if you were in this
very realistic situation?
![Page 47: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
What‘s the main message, punk?
You have 5 seconds to tell me.
![Page 48: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Okay, maybe it‘s not THATrealistic.
![Page 49: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
How about this?
Okay, maybe it‘s not THATrealistic.

“Uhm, I didn‘t get that last part, why was that relevant to the presentation?“
![Page 51: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
“Uhm, I didn‘t get that last part, why was that relevant to the presentation?“
Is this any better?
![Page 52: Present! - Edition #1 Rethinking Presentation Design](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051110/54c815754a7959f55d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
It‘s of little use calculating

If you already have one, that‘s great!

If not, don‘t worry, there are many
ways to find out.

Throw away thethings that don‘tsupport your main message.
