Client Presentation

Deliverable: Client presentation or URL to video

  • Prepare a 5-7 minute client presentation to be given to Genspace staff on 12/17
  • Practice this presentation in the mirror several times
  • Your deck will be on screen while you present so you can refer to your design at any point during your presentation
  • Remember do not read from your deck! That makes for a bad (and disengaged) presentation. Just refer to it for cues about what to talk about
  • Since you only have a few minutes you'll want to focus on the most interesting parts of your presentation.
  • Identify those parts in advance (usually homepage, identity work, buy tickets, secret sauce, experts page) and be prepared to talk about them
  • If you will not be here, let me know in advance! We will either arrange a Google hangout or you will create a video of your presentation and post it online (Google, YouTube, Vimeo, DropBox, etc.). Submit the link in the Google form

The Final "Deck"

Deliverable: Publicly accessible PDF

  • Revise your final presentation, often called a "deck", taking into account any notes from class
  • Your final presentation should look good! Imagine you need this job to make your rent next month, that's how good it should look!
  • All final presentations will be sent to Genspace
  • Remember: For all your web design pages, the canvas size should not be the default 8 1/2" x 11". Format the page to best suite your design
  • If you want to link out to your designs on Sketch Cloud then be sure to embed those links in your PDF
  • Here's the order:
    1. Introduction title page (make sure to include your contact information)
