The Future of Conferences: (TWIT video)
Online Keynote Presentations

by Todd Lucier on April 16, 2011

The biggest challenge for delivering meaningful conference presentations with remote video is in engaging the audience from outside the room. I think later this year we’ll see a number of posts on how to give a great remote keynote, until then, consider the basics. If I had this video to shoot again, I’d take out the reference to powerpoint type presentations for Keynotes.

I think PPT is fine for some online learning experiences, but not Keynote presentations. When I gave the Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia presentation I stuck with face time and didn’t show any slides. There may be a time for remote powerpoint slides, but I think it’s better to be animated and be visible on screen.

What do you think? What is powerpoint presentations place on the web?

Catch my online keynote as it was delivered shortly after shooting this video.
Unfortunately, it’s just a thumbnail, but perhaps you can get a sense of how camera work can contribute to an online keynote.
