To be honest, Prezi really spoils potential users by showing them these amazing presentations that “people just like you and me” built. Not only do the presenters know how to engage an audience, but the presentations behind them look amazing. Great presentations all have a common thread running through it. When you look at a presentation that you really like, what do you notice first? More than likely the answer is the design of it. An audience wants to be visually entertained whether that’s from slide to slide, or from frame to frame. There are several factors that go into a great presentation, and besides your communication and speaking skills as a whole, the design is what’s most important. Boring presentations are still boring on both Prezi and PowerPoint, so just because you jump around the screen or you use some cheesy animation, it doesn’t make your presentation any better. It doesn’t matter if you’re going slide to slide or jumping around the screen, your presentation will still be terrible if you have no design behind it. But, it’s all about how you layout that content and design the elements around it that will make the biggest difference. Regardless of the presentation platform you use, your content will most likely be the same. Whether it is something like Prezi, PowerPoint, Keynote, or whatever, it simply just doesn’t matter. But, all I could think about was that it doesn’t really matter which presentation product you use. And, many of their points were somewhat valid because Prezi is kind of cool the way you can make it move and do different things with it. I recently read a blog from Prezi about how great their product was and why you should never, ever use slides again to present something.
