Choose a relevant colour scheme*
- Use a maximum of 5 colours (less is even better)
- Consider changing hue and saturation to add more depth
- Use a colour scheme that fits your presentation topic*
Don’t fear negative space
- Make your empty spaces part of your design
- It helps in creating emphasis on elements
- Too much positive space can be distracting
Use good quality visuals*
- Entice your viewer by using quality, relevant visuals
- Visuals should not pixellate, be stretched or warped
- Download free stock footage from a variety of websites
Be consistent in your design theme
- Consistency creates a sense of structure
- It assists in improving the usability and learnability
- People understand concepts quicker
Stick to two typefaces*
- Use an interesting, relevant font for headings*
- Use a sans serif, simple font for body copy
- Type should be legible and large enough to view from afar
Limit your special effects
- Stick to simple animations
- Don’t overdo it with transitions but keep it simple
- Special effects can distract your viewer from the message
