There are a number of changes I have made to my original powerpoint presentation.
The first change I made was on the second slide. I added a clipart animation depicting two cartoon men holding a graph arrow. I positioned then so that they were standing on the graph already present in the powerpoint. The idea behind this was an emphasis on play. It made the statistical graph less dry, with more of a humorous tinge to it.
Next, I added more colour to slide three. I coloured four bars red, yellow, green and blue respectively. The purpose of this was symphony. By adding more colours, placing them in the order they appear on the spectrum, I was drawing together isolated pieces of information that would have otherwise appeared very anaytical.
Slide number seven employs the use of story. I took away the dot points to add more of a narrative structure. The tree in the background already implies a wider narrative structure.
Slide number ten makes use of empathy. The frog was placed underneath the caption to prompt an emotional response from the audience.
To communicate design, I added some decoration relevant to the topic on slide nine.
In order to communicate meaning, I emphasized certain words with bold, italics or underlining. Slide 6 is just one example of this.
