Interpretation 1: "Slideshow" is a type of film.
Interpretation 2: "Slideshow" is used to describe special card games (the reason may be caused by your own computer), just like playing a slideshow.

Slide template

The slide template is the defined slide format.
Keynote provides richer and more beautiful templates, which can provide excellent presentation effects.
Slide template (8 photos)
PowerPoint also has many templates, which brings us a lot of convenience in designing slides. However, some templates are not suitable, and those with a light background should not be used.
Use a gradient for the background. Place dark colors at the bottom of the slide; light colors in the upper left corner. Because readers often start reading from the top left, don't let the background be too strong to compete with the text of the foreground color.
Please set the page as a 35mm slide, and keep a margin of 0.5 inches around the edge to prevent the content from being covered by the slide frame.

Slide font

The font is not less than 18 points, and the line is not less than 1.5 points. So that the audience sitting in the last row of the conference room can see clearly.
Avoid excessive fonts and reduce the use of underline, italics, and bold.
Try to use consistent font thickness on the slides, such as bold, Arial, Tahoma. If you use Apple Keynote, you can also choose Mac-specific fonts.
If using English, do not use all capital letters. On the one hand, it is disrespect to the listener (using uppercase spelling to express loud roar to others), and it is not as easy to recognize as lowercase letters.
The text font is slightly smaller than the title. Don't stuff your slides with text. If there is too much text, I would rather split it into multiple slides.
The text should be as consistent as possible. If too many fonts and styles are used in the entire slideshow, it will be garish, untidy and unprofessional, and the readability will be greatly reduced. If you use too many fonts, the audience will mistakenly think that you have deliberately emphasized a certain type of information, but in fact it is not. Even then, you cannot emphasize too much information in a speech, so there cannot be too fancy font .
If you really need to use interesting fancy fonts for your interesting topics, then choose fonts that are more readable than those crooked and illegible fonts. However, using these fonts still saves a bit.

Slide color

Font color and background color: Black text on a blue background can be seen more clearly on the screen, but the output as a slideshow cannot be seen at all. White text on a blue background or yellow text on a black background will be very noticeable.
Attention (background) color is related to mood. Dark blue and gray give a sense of strength and stability; red generally means warning or emergency; green represents life and vitality. Color also affects the sharpness of the slide. Slides need to be shown in a darker room, so a dark background and light text are required. Blue, purple, and green are suitable for the background color, while white, yellow, and red are suitable for the foreground color.
The golden rule of color: the background is dark blue, the title is golden yellow, the subtitle is light blue, the text is white, and the bullet is golden yellow.

Slide page settings

It is generally recommended to use Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, Kingsoft WPS presentation, OpenOffice Impress, Google Docs, etc. to make slide files. Adobe Pagemaker and Photoshop can also be used to output slides, but if you have specialized presentation production tools, there is no reason to choose these software, which are more suitable for typography and graphics processing.
PowerPoint: File-Page Setup-Slide Size, select "35mm Slide".
Adobe Pagemaker: Set the page length to width ratio as 3: 2, such as 9 "x6" or 11 "x 7.33".
Adobe Photoshop: image-image size image size-print size: width to height ratio is 3: 2, for example 3 inches x 2 inches; resolution can be set to 300- 400 dpi (pixels / inch). Please select "RGB color" instead of CMYK color in Image-Mode.

Slide title

All titles of a slide should be the same font, size, format, position, and color.
The size of the title font is the largest in this slide.
The title should be placed above the slide, as this will most attract the attention of the audience.
The font of the subtitle is smaller than that of the positive title, and it should be placed in the same position on each page.

Slide bullet

Usually 3-5 per page, not more than 7.
Do not use sentences after bullets followed by phrase phrases.
Phrase structure should be consistent, such as using verb-object structure, or all nouns.
No more than 14 Chinese characters or 7 English words follow each bullet.
Don't let the content of the same series exceed one page.

Slide layout

Layout of each slide
Each slide has a maximum of 5-6 bullets, and the sentences in each paragraph should be short, so that the text becomes large and easy to recognize.
Don't get stuffed with every slide: Don't put the whole paragraph on the slide. If so, it is a great disrespect to the audience, because he has read your content silently, and you are still reading the slide slowly. The slides are short and can be switched frequently, making your presentations more lively and engaging.
Only key words or short sentences appear on the slide, not every sentence you have to say. If you write everything you want to say, you don't need to speak, because the audience can read silently faster than you can read aloud.
Each slide shows only 1-2 main content. In this way, you can explain what you want to say orally, and the audience can understand your content twice. The first time they read the bullet points themselves, and the second time they listen to you. This can also speed up the slide change, and the audience is actually expecting to change slides continuously. If the slide is not changed to the next one for a long time, the attention will be shifted to other places.
Don't turn PowerPoint files into Word files.
overall arrangement
Have a title slide: Tell the audience who you are, what you plan to talk about, and what you want to say about the content.
Prepare a concluding slide: Preparing a concluding slide gives you the opportunity to re-emphasize your message before closing the presentation. The audience can also learn the main message you conveyed from many of what you said earlier, and it is also the message you want them to remember when they leave the venue.
Both the first and last title slides are arranged: the first title slide (including the title of the speech and your name) will let the audience know who you are and what will be said; the last slide and the first Again, you can use it to end your speech.
The format of the whole set of slides should be consistent, including colors, fonts, backgrounds, etc.
Use the same set of slides horizontally or vertically. Don't mix and match, because the content will exceed the screen.
Add some pictures as appropriate: after the text input is over, check all the slides and divide those slides with too much text into 2-3. Then select some slides and add some pictures to attract the visual. People always expect some pictures. It's better if the moral of the picture is related to the main content of the slide.

Slide picture scan

The scanned image can be directly inserted on the page or template, but beginners often do not know how to control the accuracy and file size of the scan.
The corresponding size of the slide is 7.33 inches x 11 inches (18x27 cm). Slide output device with a page size of 4096 pixels x 2732 pixels. We recommend that you define the size of the file graphic as 4 inches x 6 inches to 7.5 inches x 11.25 inches.
When you scan or make an image, if the graphic size is close to 8 x 10 inches (20x25 cm), please use 375 DPI. 375DPI is the best accuracy; if the graphic size is close to 4x 6 inches (10x15 cm), please scan or set with 750DPI. The slide output device will try to make your 4x 6 inches image fit 7.33x 11 inches (18x27 cm) If you set the accuracy below 375DPI, the accuracy of the output will not be enough.
Save the graphic file in TIFF (* .TIF) format and select LZW compression or save it in the best quality JPEG (* .JPG) format. Note that for the same file, you can only save it to JPEG format after you have edited it all. Do not save it as JPEG multiple times. For example, save it as JPEG immediately after scanning, save it after making some modifications, but not save it immediately after scanning. Save as JPEG when all modifications are complete and you are ready to close this file.
