Presentation Readings

I do declare:
This was a good article to read. It listed bullet points and elaborated on them. Overall, presentation is all about confidence and keeping the audience engaged. The writer talks about how to do those things and how important it is that the audience keeps their interest. The person presenting should also know a few things like how to talk and what to present. What they say doesn't always have to be on screen and what they show doesn't always have to be said, but you also don't want to overlap people's voices in their head. Not quite the best advice out of the whole article, but I like how the writer told the presenter that they should "levitate".

Be Selfish:
This article supports the previous article a lot. In this one, it talks about knowing the audience. Our presentation should revolve around the audience and don't always assume they know what we know as designers. Hierarchy in what we show and what we say is also important. We also want to keep things simple in terms of the design of the presentation.
