The Importance Of The Prezi For Beginners

By Jana Serrano


Prezi stands out as a great tool full of functions; however, if the user is unable to follow the structure and the guidelines, everything can go very wrong. This is why it is said that such users should be SHOT. This sounds very harsh, but it does not mean shooting in its literary form, "shot" as used in this case is an acronym for Stopped, Helped or Trained. This is what the Prezi for beginners is all about. Without this guide, most users who adopt it forget two important pillars of an effective presentation; message and structure.

Most people see a big wonderful canvas in which you can go up and down, in and out, left and right and most beginners start doing everything. The result is a presentation that is swinging in and out, left and right, and uses animation effects that are random. The pictures in some cases are even rotated up to 37 degrees. This is simply a disaster. This is why they have to be SHOT. Here are a few tips in the guide.

There are several tips to consider, however, the basic ones are there to help the beginners focus on the four pillars of presentation, and these include the message and the structure as the most important ones.

The second step is to get a plan. If possible, start by planning in PowerPoint before proceeding to Prezi. With this freedom, it can be tricky, and it is very easy to be overwhelmed. However, if you take the procedure used in planning the movie, it can be possible. Planning for a movie involves taking one step at a time, creating one scene after the other, and there is a lot to do with trial and error.

The other tip is to consider using SWF files so as to create the professional Prezi that has outstanding zooming effects. In the presentation, there is freedom to zoom in and out. However, the use of a low resolution picture can make it look horrible.

The other necessary thing is to understand the things that constitute a good Prezi. However much it may be explained, your presentation is only good if it explains the targeted topic in a manner that it is unforgettable to the audience. This requires that you focus on simplicity and clarity.

As much as possible, the symbols used should be those that are well known and try to use images over words as much as possible. Since some people are not comfortable with quickly moving objects, it is best to avoid the motion sickness.

The members of the audience who are sensitive should be considered and fast moving or fast rotating objects should be avoided. This means that as the beginner, you learn how to make proper transitions between different slides in a manner that is gentle and calm.
