Reuse our Recycling Presentation on Prezi

Jan 25, 2010 by Alexander Hussain in Graphic Design, Interaction Design, New Technology, Web & Software

Our friends over at Prezi just released a new feature – Reusable Prezis.  This new feature allows you to start with an existing presentation that was created by any member who chooses to share their work – you can keep the layout, keep the content, improve it, or just mix it up however you like.  We are excited to say that our presentation for the TriUPA Design Challenge is one of the featured Prezis selected for the initial feature rollout. We can’t wait to see how you use it – please share our work with the rest of the world as you see fit and be sure to let us know if you find it helpful for any of your upcoming presentations.

For those of you who don’t know already, Prezi is a fun and unique alternative to PowerPoint.  It does away with the concept of “slides” and has helped us find interesting ways to share the “big picture” during our presentations, especially when we are speaking in front of larger groups.  It is a relatively new tool for our team, but we have found that it gives us a little edge that helps to set our work apart. We hope it will do the same for you!

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should…

How big would it be? How could you sharpen the knives? Wouldn’t the built in bowl get in the way of the fork?  Are you crazy?
