Instructions for Presenters

Presentation Guidelines

The Melanoma 2010 Program Committee is pleased to provide speakers with some detailed briefing notes and presentation guidelines to assist with the preparation of your presentation.

PowerPoint Presentation Guidelines

The following guidelines are designed to assist you with the preparation of your PowerPoint presentation:

Reccommendations
Font
  • Keep a minimum font size of 24.
  • Use fonts such as Arial, Verdana, Tahoma or Times New Roman.
  • Do not use ALL CAPS.
  • Proof read and spell check your presentation.
Layout
  • Abbreviate your message and limit the number of words you put on a page/slide:
  • Avoid paragraphs
  • Use bullet points as a prompt
  • Use succinct phrases instead of full sentences
  • Limit each slide to 6 bullet points
Colour
  • Choose colour combinations that make your text easy to read such as;
  • Light backgrounds (white, yellow, light blue) with dark fonts (black, navy blue, dark green).
  • Dark backgrounds (blue, purple) with light fonts (white, yellow, cyan).
  • Do not use red or green in any fonts or backgrounds as it is a colour that is difficult to read.
Graphics
  • Keep graphs, charts and diagrams simple as they are absorbed more easily by your audience.
  • Use one graphic or visual per slide.
