Conclusion
I also think that my font size is very suitable for a slide show as it is not to small not to be eye catching and also not to big so as you can not get any information on the pages. I layed out my power point using bullet points to make it more eye catching and appealing to the eye. Some people may not agree with this but I think it is the best way in which to lay out any power point. In my power point I also had slides with lots of info and others with very little info I think this help the audience understand the power point better as that way they are not getting drowned with information. I think my information content is very good as there is a good ratio between the info and the raw facts. Overall I thought that my power point is perfect for a year 12 audience as all of the elements of the power point are geared toward a teenage audience so as they may noyt get to bored with being overloaded with dull information and if I where to do my power point over again I don't think I would change any of it as it turned out exactly like I wanted it to. ...read more.
