  • Accessible through your browser

Motion Sickness

  • Not based on slides which opens up non-linear possibilities
  • Some animations are too jarring for some people

Demonstration

  • Too many animations in a short period of time can also cause motion sickness
  • No real limits except your own imagination in what you can accomplish visually

Limited by the human brain

Style over Substance

  • Human brain likes predictable movements for making connections
  • Do not over-rely on Prezi's capabilities
  • The most natural directions in Western cultures are from top to bottom and left to right
  • Just a tool to enhance presentations, does not replace the presenter
  • The audience should remember the message and not just the slick animations
