VISUAL PRESENTATIONS

MEANING & DEFINITION
“By a 'visual representation' I mean roughly an item that is both visible itself, and which purports to represent some actual subject, in such a way that the representing item is in some way similar to, or recognizable as, the purported actual subject; and which item has a representational content or subject matter that may or may not accurately characterize any actual subject. Pictorial representation is one species of visual representation.”– John Dilworth (varieties of visual presentation)

Tabulated data
Line Graphs
Bar Graphs

Flow charts
Visual Planning
Boards
Computer Graphics

CARTOGRAMSA cartogram is a map in which some thematic

Geometry or space of the map is distorted in order to convey the information of this alternate variable

EXAMPLE OF COMPUTER GRAPHICS
Murphy’s Laws for Visual Presentations
Whatever you forgot is what you will most need.The most critical point of any presentation will be mizpeled at least
once.
Presenters and rehearsals are similar to children and homework: They say that
they do it, but it's rarely done.There is never time or budget to do it right.There is always time and budget to do it over.YOU will be the expert on everything.Credit is to be given, blame is to be gracefully taken.All microphones are broken.All screens are too small.All projectors are too faint.
All presentation rooms are too small, too bright, too large, too dark, too
hot, too cold or all of these depending upon whom you ask..
DEADLY SINSOF
VISUAL PRESENTATIONS
RANSOM NOTE DESIGN
Just because you have access to 350 fonts does not mean that you are
required to use them. A single font throughout an entire presentation is
usually quite sufficient. Use bold, italic, underline, quotations and/or colour
changes to emphasize or subdue key points or words.

THE ILLEGIBLE IMAGE
Images not clearly seen by the entire audience add confusion and distraction. If you have to say "I know you can't read this but.....," why include the visual at all?
One popular rule of thumb is the "8H" rule of legibility. In a nutshell, if you can read an image from eight times its height, odds are your audience will be able to read it when projected
THE USELESS IMAGE
Images should be designed to please the mind as well as the eye of the viewer. If an image
has no specific place or purpose in a presentation other than "it is
pretty", it should probably be removed.
And again A picture is worth a thousand words.
