Implementing the Rules of Great Presentation Design

Whether you’re a graphic designer stepping into presentation work or even a non-designer suddenly asked to make a deck, this session is for you. Presentation design plays by its own rules, where clarity, pacing, and audience connection matter more than design perfection. You’ll learn how to translate classic design principles into slides that work in motion and on a screen. Discover how to guide the eye with hierarchy and contrast, choose readable fonts and smart font sizes, line things up with grids, and give every idea room to breathe. You’ll learn when to follow traditional design rules and when to bend them to keep attention focused on your message.

You’ll learn how to:

• Apply simple layout rules that improve clarity and flow
• Use grids, alignment, and spacing to create clean, balanced slides
• Choose font styles and sizes that are readable in any room
• Simplify visuals and text to keep your audience focused
