=﻿Presentation Survival Skills= Making sure your next presentation goes off without a hitch!

Checklist of Important Things to Remember:
- Is my computer hooked up correctly? (Do you see the image on the screen and where you are projecting it?) - Can I hear the sound? (Be sure to try all sound effects when hooking up your hardware.) - Am I wired or wireless? (If using the internet, especially for video, we recommend having a wired connection. Also know ahead of time if your location has wireless access.) - If using videos during your presentation, do you have them pulled up behind your PowerPoint? (This will allow them to load while your presentation is going on and minimize downtime when switching from content to video.)

Know your computer ahead of time! Be sure know which button changes between multiple displays. Set up with enough time to go to plan b if needed!

Zamzar
Zamzar is a free file conversion service available on the internet. It also allows you to grab videos from sites like youtube and save them as files. Having the video saved on your desktop will minimize bandwidth problems during your presentation. Below is a short video with more explanation about Zamzar.
