Have you heard of Prezi?

Have you heard about Prezi?

If you haven't feel free to check this out,
Prezi

Why?
Lets face it, Powerpoints are pretty boring,
nowadays they hardly hold the attention of
children and teenagers.

With Prezi, which is free for public use and
students, you can zoom in, zoom out, slide,
twist, turn, work together, view online, and
everything else you could not do with Powerpoint.

Do you like a function Powerpoint has that Prezi does not?
Upload a Powerpoint slide.

You a file, image, gif or even draw your own pictures.
Actually, you could even upload a whole Youtube video..
or a series of them!

Examples?
A presentation to elementary teachers my team put together.
(This will help you learn)
Teaching Prezi to Teachers

One of my own presentations I put together
one-two hours before class started.

Woodblock Prints
Don't let my procrastination fool you, the class was impressed.

Want to learn more?!

Functions:
You can work or present online, with others.
Zoom into pictures, as well as zoom out.
Presentations can zip, flip, and pan.
Insert shapes, images, Powerpoints, Youtube videos,
drawings and diagrams, and files such as PDFs and Excel,
Flash(SWFs), Sounds, Complex Graphics.

Anything added can be moved, scaled, rotated.
You can hide images within images within images. :]

Honestly, if you have class presentations and that
class has a computer that you can present on that
is connected to the interwebz, use Prezi.

Thanks,
I hope this topic interests you all,
I think you will love it in College.

Prezi is new, and is getting pretty popular.

and I honestly love Prezi.

You could present your levels, tutorials,
videos, graphics or whatever through prezi.

Why would they pay me to advertise? The video it self, as well as the program does that. The program is good enough to not need it.

However, if they did I'd be amazing as heck because I honestly wouldn't mind it. Is the fact that students should use it because it is amazing not a good enough reason for you to accept me letting others know?

I heard about it this semester in my technical writing class the presentation was done for. The guy who told us saw it in another college being used at a friends presentation. It is slowly traveling, I used it in my Topics of Asian History class and now others are using it (not as well). lol

I like prezi

It is so good! I wish we could import fonts though..
Same with making images move around, but both of those have workarounds...

I like pp

May I ask why you like PP better then PZ?

I'm posting in another thread my tutorials.

(I'll do it here for now, since it is part of my post.)
I just grouped together some of my LAT tutorials,
I'd like to make another one regarding detail possibly in a month or two...
This took me about 6 minutes to make, I'm going to fix it up must more later.

If you'd like to learn it, ask me.
Make sure you know what you want to do,
and have your Graal stuff ready!

Prezi is good for professional looking projects easily made

Simple · 05-09-2012

I've been using Prezi since last year

. The zoomable canvas is awesome and makes it really exciting to visualize your ideas. Hiding images within images is my favorite part ;-)

Honestly, it is much easier and quicker than making a presentation from PP once you've learned the basics.

Ace · 05-09-2012

I'm so used to using powerpoint I'm too lazy to figure out a completely new program

I'm doing a minecraft trivia for school completely on pp
Suck it

iHawk · 05-09-2012

Derp. It's a cool program, like I said, but my problem with it is it uses flash. ::/

Is your computer not good, or just don't like flash? o.o
I'm trying to understand why flash is a program I guess lol

That makes me sad, so many people knew about this before me, well at least I'm hopefully introducing it to some people lol..

I just don't like flash:/ if you do research on it, it is very unreliable. Not to say that Prezi isn't good, they just need to upgrade to html5

David K? · 05-10-2012

Oh I see... I didn't know it used flash, since I've never used flash. I only knew that you can upload flash files onto it.. I would like to learn how to make flash animation one day though. o.o

Well, hopefully one day Prezi will pertain to your needs. ^.^
For me, I believe I will find this quite useful should I have to present anything.
Even to the Graal community.

I hope to show Shaded Legends updates on it.
