The Versatility Of Prezi Presentation Design

By Daphne Bowen


Prezi is a powerful web based presentation tool. The particular prezi presentation design you choose to implement will determine the response you get from the audience. In general, it was designed to break the monotony of traditional presentation tools such as Microsoft PowerPoint.

It was founded by three Hungarian programmers very recently in 2009. Its usage targets all kinds of individuals in different professions such as such as teachers students and business executives. It was discovered that audiences are much more likely to pay attention to your presentation if it was more interactive.

Its application is quite easy to understand. The first step is logging in to their online accounts. The new users will have to sign up for new accounts. They will further be required to select an account option either free or a paid account. Getting started is easily illustrated by simple step by step instructional videos available on you tube. This way the new users can get to be quickly familiarized with the basics.

The more interesting part is getting into the actual design layout. A number of themes are availed at start up. Choosing a theme will be vital in determining the text color and means by which the objects interact. There is also an additional feature of choosing whether your layout will be 2-D or 3-D. The three dimensional layouts elicits more of a wow effect from the audience if properly used. This is largely due to the ability to zoom in and out of the set.

The template will only go as far as providing a framework for you to work on. The details of your presentation and the sequence will entirely depend on your ideas. An easy way to work around this is by starting with your major points. Once this is established, you can then go ahead and add filler content (which are basically details further illustrating your key points).

Some of the key advantages have been mentioned in the discussions above. This includes its ability to break the monotony of using traditional tools, and offering a dynamic platform for presenting your ideas. Another worthwhile mention is that it is completely free and easily available irrespective of your location. This is majorly because it allows you to save your work on a cloud based server.

Despite all this, lots of complaints have been raised regarding its three dimensional approach. The complaints are centered on the premise that it causes motion sickness when exposed to it for extended periods of time. This effect is usually compounded when the presenter moves through different illustrations quickly. Another limitation may be on its accessibility. Although being cloud based is beneficial, it can cause access issues if the individual resides in remote locales or places where internet connectivity is not easily available. Older people also have a bias towards the tools they are more familiar with due to the learning curve associated with understanding an entirely new concept.

In conclusion, prezi is a very powerful tool that should be encouraged for use by individuals or groups. Those who are willing to go through the process of learning and understanding its use get to reap the rewards it has to offer.
