I’m trying to prepare myself for the use of PowerPoint during our worship services so I found this interview with Rene Shlaepfer intersting. Here are few ideas gleaned from the interview;
- Keep the slides simple and uncluttered
- The slides should never be obtrusive, and they should never dictate the substance of the message
- Don’t settle for the templates and images that come with the program; everybody’s seen them
- Don’t use every fancy swipe, fade and disolve just because it’s there
- People respond best to images, include pictures of people when possible
