Last night, I was working on the last part of my powerpoint presentation to pitch to my imaginary team of investors.
I was asked to use PowerPoint or iMovie. I chose to use PowerPoint because I know how to use it better, and I think in terms of usage, it can look more professional.
I am no expert in PowerPoint. I used a basic template that I thought resonated well with my project. I looked for pictures online that I thought would go well with my presentation. Overall, I think PP was a very useful tool for me to be able to organize my thoughts and put them down in a logical manner.
PP also has a bunch of useful tools that iMovie uses as well. While I am more familiar with iMovie, I found the transitions section to be very professional and useful while finishing up my slides. I even loved the easy accessibility for recording audio. I've never dabbled much in PP, so everything is kind of new to me. However, I do know that PP has gotten exceedingly user-friendly if you know what you're looking for.
I also found it relatively easy to use graphs and tables, though my presentation did not need so many. I wish I had used PP more when I was younger. Professors use it in almost every lecture. It is kind of amazing to me how aggravated I can get when I look at a PP presentation because someone has not used it to its full potential, there are lots of words, the pictures are unnecessary, etc. Yet, strangely, when it comes to how I make my own PP presentation, I can't remember what works and what doesn't.
Here's hoping it all works out!
