Acoworker just sent you a presentation to review. you noticed that she used different types of transitions on the same slide, and the animations and videos were distracting from the topic. give your coworker advice about guidelines she can follow when using animation, transitions, and multimedia. be sure to include at least four guidelines.

Adding animations or transitions to your slide transitions can sometimes be very risky. Below are approaches for using animation, transitions in a professional manner.

1.Animation in PowerPoint is appropriate. It is recommended to use simple animation effects like fade, dissolve, and appear instead of those crazy motion effects. Meaningless animation is distracting.

2.Consider a quick slide transition of (0.5 to 1 second) Fade between slides. Such short time between slides does not distract the audience. Transitions should either be different on each slide or the same type but only one on each slide shown.

3.Do not include pictures and sounds a lot. At least two photos or one on each slide, while videos should only be one on the very last slide.

4.When using animation or slide transitions in your presentation, keep in mind that every element should be tested to ensure they add to your message, not detract from it.
