Re: [applekeynote] World's Best Presentation Contest Results

Huh. Real nice. I'll have to experiment with this. Option 2 (shapes with matched backgrounds) seems tough!

And btw you created these themes? You're the "john" from Keynote Themepark? I bought Spotlight off you some time ago. GREAT WORK!

Sorry, my movie pages don't have the navigation on them.

It's done with one of my themes that you put Move/Action/Builds on the side masking elements.

Or you could do the same thing with rectangular shapes that seamlessly match the background to expose the image behind.

It's a nifty effect, but you can't get the judges of the Best Presentation contest to look at. Send it in as PDF : (

Hi!

Did you create that Keynote prez? It may be simple, but how did you make a mask resize as an action??

Thanks :)

Some nice looking stuff, but I sent them this feedback:

I don't think a presentation can be judged properly as a bunch of stills. 

That is like reviewing a movie with still frames from every 5 minutes. Go here:

http://www.keynotethemepark.com/content/pages/reflectdemomov.html and 

tell me how much you lose if this was submitted as a couple still slides? 

You need to allow Keynote users to submit QT or .key files and judge that. 

Half of the job of what I create is the programming of it. It's the choreography 

of the thing. I don't want my work reduced to a series of stills and would never 

submit my Keynote presentations as PDF. You obviously  don't "get"  or recognize 

all what a presentation can be if you simply drop what can be a vital aspect of it.
