Introduction:

In Technology class we’ve been talking about the different ways to make a slide interesting and in a way that will catch a reader’s eye. I used presentation zen to get the information I need in order to make my slide. I put some of the advice to action in my slide shown below.

SCRIPT:

My slide looks the way it does, because on presentation zen, a website with slide advice, it recommended that you use bright colors, so I used a dark background with bright blue and pink to add a contrast. The soccer ball represents one of my hobbies, playing soccer, as well as a personal trait, I have a happy personality. My name being big and bright has to do with the fact that the slide is about me. My slide’s letters and picture is very bold, so people can look at it and know what it’s about. That process is called, ‘Glance media’.

Conclusion:

I chose the bright soccer ball as the picture on my slide, because soccer is one of my main hobbies, and something I love to do. Also, because it has a smiley face on it and I have a happy personality. Being happy makes life more exciting, that’s why it’s important to include it on my slide. The bright colors are there to one, engage the reader, and two because I love bright colors, they help bring out my personality.

I changed the soccer ball on my slide, because the alpha tool didn't work well on my old one. I kept everything else the same, because I wanted to do my slide according to presentation zen and use glance media. Something I learned in the class discussion was that my slide needed improvements on the alpha tool, like I said before. I didn't need this tool, but I learned that you can frame pictures if necessary.

I think that your slide looks better and I like the idea with the Italian soccer ball. :)
