PowerPoint Design for Digital Signs
EPISODE 30 | Guests: Melissa Sartin, creative content artist for Visix, and Dwayne Johnson, senior interactive artist for Visix
One of the most popular ways to create content for digital signage is to use PowerPoint and then simply import the slides into the CMS. Which makes sense since people already know how to use PowerPoint. But PowerPoint design for digital signs is not quite the same as creating slides for a presentation; they’re different media. And not everyone is a designer or has a design eye.
In this podcast, two of our award-winning designers give you some best practices to keep in mind with PowerPoint tips for digital signage.
- Consider aspect ratios
- Choose the right colors and color combinations
- Focus on the background
- Use images correctly, and legally
- Create campaigns for longer messages
- Don’t forget a call to action
- Spell things correctly and use correct punctuation
- Slide Master can make everything easier
- Smart Art vs. clip art
- Watch those transitions and animations
