Lights, camera, action!...Action!...Action?
By Jeremy Cain, Presentation Consultant, 123PPT.com
It was one of the most eagerly awaited conventions of the year. The organization in which I was employed had invested greatly in securing a presentations stand, in order to ensure our presence, and a one hour time slot on the main stage. The goal of our presentation was simple. To "wow" our audience, and take advantage of this opportunity of presenting our showcase product to the industry. After eighteen months of technical development, from over one hundred and twenty developers, we were now ready to show the world.
Such was the pressure and expectation of the convention that our organization had invested in several full motion graphic DVD titles and introduction sequences, as well as a television styled presentation.
So there I was, the vessel of these efforts. My task to simply stand there and conduct the array of visual treats, to walk the audience through the product showcase and feature highlights, and make mouths water, hands tremble, and distributors race to our stand for contractual discussions.
What could possibly go wrong? ...well after all but introducing myself and our organization, all power to the main stage failed. No video. No sound. No product demonstration. No presentation. Only the deafening sound of silence, and the look of a thousand faces questioning what next?

In our last edition, Rachel Shepard Asked the Experts, "How can I hide different slides within my PowerPoint presentation?"
Read Michael Ross's reply, as he answers Rachel's question and shows you how one PowerPoint presentation can be used for several audiences, and how you can keep selected slides hidden within your presentation so that your differing target audiences will only see the slides that you want them to see.
