Lately, Goff Public has started using Prezi, a multimedia presentation program that
makes PowerPoint seem rigid and predictable.
Prezi, the zooming presentation editor, is an online program that uses a
single page, infinite in size, instead of traditional slides. Text, images and videos are placed on the page
and presenters create a “path” from one element to another, causing the screen
to shift, swing and zoom with each click of the mouse. While difficult to describe, Prezi’s
usability is quite the contrary.
We help clients develop all types of presentations. Our goal, as with any presentation, is to
create engaging presentations that capture the audience’s attention and convey
the client’s key messages in memorable ways.
While PowerPoint is still effective in many situations, the Prezis we
have created are making people’s eyes light up in ways PowerPoint has failed to
do in many years.
If this is the first time you have heard about Prezi, it
probably won’t be your last. While
PowerPoint is by no means dead in the water, Prezi is a viable competitor that
is changing the landscape of visual aids.
Don’t be surprised if we start seeing a widespread shift in how
presentations are given.
