This document discusses best practices for presentations. It advises against putting all content on slides as readers will focus on the screen instead of the presenter. It also warns against overusing colors and images as this can destroy the audience's focus and prevent message transmission, potentially causing epilepsy attacks. Simple, easy-to-read slides with quality images and emphasized key points are recommended instead.

the same slide emphasizing the
important bits in bold.
• This makes the audience focus on
reading what is on the screen so that they
don’t miss anything important.
• But they don’t realize what really happens
is that the audience is not earing what the
presenter says, ruining the complete
presentation and transforming it into a
document viewing.
