Guidance for Preparing Slide Shows

In addition to AV formatted presentations as outlined above, members may also create and present their work in slide show format.  The use of PowerPoint (PP) for this format is suggested, but alternative software is acceptable.  In this format, a photo image would be pasted into a PP slide, inserting any words or shapes as desired.

A brief summary of the slide show including, title and subject matter, should be forwarded to the AV Show Leader (avshowleader@mcc.mississaugacameraclub.ca) for scheduling. 

Show Duration

Slide shows should run between 3 – 6 minutes which suggests no more than 25 slides or images. Creators should rehearse and time the length of their Slide Show presentation to ensure that the time limitation is achievable.

Presentation

Creators may speak to their slides as they cycle or opt to just have them cycle without commentary.  They can use the Zoom Share Screen function and their own computer to cycle their own slides, or ask the AV Show Leader to do so on their behalf.  Please let the AV Show Leader know if you require assistance as to how to use the Share Screen feature, or you wish to have someone else cycle the slides in Zoom for you while you speak to them.
