Be Your Own Spielberg: Using Storytelling Techniques to Create Highly Engaging and Impactful Presentations

June 27 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm EDT

Offered by the Great Lakes PTTC: Be Your Own Spielberg: Using Storytelling Techniques to Create Highly Engaging and Impactful Presentations

How many times have you seen (or given!) a presentation where the audience’s eyes glazed over with boredom or exhaustion? How do we communicate ideas that are important to us in a way that’s meaningful to our audiences? Can we make complex science and deep data meaningful to non-expert audiences? Interestingly, directorial and editing techniques that have long been used in movies correspond with some of the best practices derived from cognitive research about how we can engage our audiences in the delivery of our ideas. This webinar looks at how we can create highly engaging and impactful presentations in our substance misuse prevention work. 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Explain how basic narrative techniques apply to the successful design and delivery of presentations
  • Describe how design and composition affect an audience’s ability to process our messages
  • Apply the Pixar storytelling framework to presentation content design
