Re: [applekeynote] Macworld 2009

Congratulations on your success story Les,

In regards to your question: I use to work with Claris Impact before and now with Keynote.
With iWork I think one element that apple is missing, and us as users as well is to integrate better elements from Numbers (Wingz, Claris Resolve) how not to make them intrusive, make them blend better with Keynote's elements.
Another element that I will like to see is how to play more with graphic content, like lightining, shading, and other modifications to photographs, video, clip-arts.

Regards

Frank

Subject: [applekeynote] Macworld 2009

Hi all,

As some on this list may know, I gave a presentation at this year's Macworld
called "Presentation Magic with Keynote". It was very much focussed on how
to improve presentation giving using the magic of Keynote, rather than a
"how to" with Keynote, like a "missing manual".

About 250 attended and they provided IDG who manages the Expo and Convention
with about 50 evaluations.

Those evaluations contained sufficient positive feedback for the directors
of Macworld to invite me back to Macworld 2009, and to expand my 75"
presentation in the Users Conference, to a 2 day PowerTools workshop,
emphasising both presentation giving and the magic of Keynote.

IOW, while this year's presentation was the diagnostic workshop on why most
presentations you see at conferences are so disengaging, next year's is a
review of the diagnosis plus the intervention.

Now I seek you assistance: When it comes to Keynote and learning how to use
it, what are the things you'd like to see covered? Do you have any special
sequence of slides you'd like to share (credit where credit is due) which
particularly illustrates how a solution was found using Keynote, or just
some special effects or story telling you're particularly proud of?

I will also be "hitting on" some of the list's professional developers for
support and highlighting the add-ons which make Keynote the great
communication tool that it is.

I have about 2 weeks to get some firm guidelines to IDG for pre-publicity,
and I head for Toronto and NYC next week (let me know if you'd like to catch
up, or even have me do a little presentation for your
group/workplace/ institute) .

Many thanks in advance to those who can assist... One of the things I will
be doing is including a set of slides about Keynote resources and this list
will be one of the them.

Best regards

Les
