.... just because the software has dozens of features available YOU DON'T need to use them all in your presentation.

MAYBE the old acronym KISs applies here. Keep It Simple.. stupid (the stupid part not necessary in this case).

That was a great information clip. But in my opinion, it would have been better without all the distracting graphics popping up. The point and the data speak for themselves.

That graphic showing the disparity between the states who voted for Biden or Trump was important. The flip-flops, people popping up in the corners, and the lens point IMHO were a distraction that added nothing to the primary point.

All in all good data on target.

trump supporters might need the cartoons. The video taught me one lesson though - don't vacation in red states this year, at least.

Darwin. When they show up at the ER treatment should be limited to advice to go home, take two aspirin and drink lots of fluids. They made their choice!
