Using PowerPoint for Comedy

Comedian Tim Lee is a fantastic example of how to use PowerPoint to great effect.

He uses very simple visual information to enhance his humour and create a more complex story than would be possible using just words, as in traditional stand-up.

Presenting is all about playing to your strengths:
* You are great at talking, describing, body language, gestures.
* PowerPoint is great at diagrams, photos, graphs, visualising complex data.

So when you are thinking about what to put on your slides - let PowerPoint do the things you cannot do!
