Whether you're pitching an idea to the boss or delivering a speech at a conference, an engaging presentation will help you reach your audience and emphasize your message. Join lynda.com staff author Justin Seeley as he explains what goes into a great slideshow—one that aids, not detracts from, the story you want to tell—and shows you how to create your own.

Learn to develop themes from selected colors, images, and fonts and start adding content. Then showcase your data with charts and graphs, add animation and transitions, and control focal points, or areas you want to draw your audience's attention to. The lessons in this course work with a variety of presentation software, including PowerPoint and Keynote.

Topics include:

Exploring the tools of the trade
Setting up a slide deck
Developing a slide theme with fonts, images, and colors
Creating a storyboard
Choosing software
Using images as backgrounds
Exploring the rules of slide typography
Building charts and graphs
Creating text and image focal points
