Blog Prompt 9



How do you set the stage before a design presentation?

The people you have gathered for your presentation are hard to please people. So let them know why they are in this presentation in the first place. Let them know they are important part of the presentation and without them it would be pointless. People in the crowd like feeling part of the reason they are there. And having them feel like they wasted there time there is the last thing you want them to feel.

Start by taking the time to meet the people that are there. Let them know why they are there and there rolls within the presentation. Why they are there.  Also what you will be showing them.

Let them know what stage of the project you’re in. Give a very brief reminder of what the last stage was, how it helped you get to this stage, and how the presentation you’re in now will help move the project forward.

What are some things not to do in a design presentation and why?

Speak loud so everyone can hear you first of all. There is nothing worse than someone presenting and they are mumbling. Also be sure to not be sitting while presenting. You need to show people that it is your time to be talking. Have good eye contact with all your audience, Without eye contact people get distracted and don’t take you seriously and get on there phones.
