Power Points

There are five things you can do to ruin a power point presentaion and they are:
1. To much text in one slide
2. No picture in the slides
3. A text color that is hard to read
4. A plain white background with black letters
5. Distracting animations

Will the five things listed above my detract from a power point presentaion, they are still a fun and dimamic way to present information to others. Especialy in situations where you need to present a lot of data.

I will be using the CLT for projects involving photoshop for this class and for projects invloving video editing for otherb classes such as an upcoming project in my first year se4minar, Enterpenuerial and Creative behavior. The trip was really useful since I learned a lot about where I can go for help and resources.

Photoshopped Pictures

This is a photo of Katie Couric which was printed in the magazine Watch. The photo was altered so that Katie's skin would look lighter as well as sliming her body. This was done in order to create a more attractive image to the viewers. This is completely wrong because the motive behind this photoshopped image is to make people believe that what they are seeing is real, there is no other motive other than to make the audiance have a more favorable opinion of Katie Couric.
