In this Three Minutes Max video, Mike Parkinson gives us two tips to making your PowerPoint bullet items more interesting. For starters, he puts his text inside his bullets—though any shape could be used, of course. In this process dubbed “chunking,” he also takes advantage of PowerPoint’s Smart Art to quickly create a more interesting layout for those bullet items.
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
