Dynamic design

Fellow speaker,

In designing your slides consider:

1. Contrast - create strong contrasts (e.g., use a lot of white space around text so it stands out on the page)
2. Repetition - repeat your main point throughout your slides
3. Alignment - line up all the items on your slide in the same way (e.g., if some text is left aligned, all text should be left aligned)
4. Proximity - keep related items close together (e.g., keep text describing an image close to the image)

Designing,
