Chapter seven covers different types of images from resizing to mixing images with text to the type of image that would be appropriate for the presenter to present during his or presentation. Burmark mentions it is very critical to set the stage before presenting your presentation “What are the characteristic of a good stage set?” (pg.114). Burmark also mentions using images that illustrate or conveying your message to your audience you don’t want to put up a message about Duck and you’re trying to speak about Bear there is no comparison “but only if they illustrate the point you are making” (pg. 115). Burmark also mentions it is very important as presenters to limit what is placed on a presentation in reality placing unnecessary information can cause the audience to lose focus “we must learn to limit what we put on each individual slide. It’s a boardroom legend and an educational myth that people learn more if you can cram more into your slides. The truth is that people learn better when extraneous information is removed. (pg.116).The chapter also covers resizing your image you can always place an image instead of placing too much text when making your point an image in reality speak a thousand words “reduce the content on the slide to its essentials (in most cases, a single image), you can focus on the purposeful placement of that image on the slide. (pg.119)
