color palettes make a world of difference - presentation best practices
DESCRIPTION
Some presentation best practices are so simple it's really easy to overlook them. One common misstep is using boring colors or, on the other side of the equation, using clashing or inconsistent color schemes. These can be a major audience distraction. Choosing the right combination of colors for your slides is one of the key elements that can make you look professional and sophisticated, or cluttered and amateurish.TRANSCRIPT
