The person is telling us that the power point should not been filled with a lot of words. Instead of that, power point should be filled with visual filled items as people like to determine your message through images. So, we must use power point to give your message.

This video stress more on how to present our power point in a more effective way.The video use the concept 'putting us in other shoes' to give us the real feeling in becoming an audience.After seeing this video,i strongly believed that using more visual in our slide show can make our audience be more interested in the topic we are talking about.this gives me useful information towards me preparing for my next power point presentation.

today, many presenter use power point as their device to present..the wrong thing is, they use the powre point to write about what they want to present.. this is totally wrong.. i agree with TJ Walker,he said that power point should be fullfill with visual media such as video and pistures.. it is better give handout rather than write in the power point..

Well..powerpoint is important to the speaker as to give the ideas or informations to the audience.Therefore, what's show on the powerpoint must be directly and simple. As the speaker says, i have learn that we should not put too much words on our powerpoints but we should fill up more visual items.Instead, a lots words could not get audiences' attention comparing a image that directly can deliver our messages. So, we must always remember powerpoints is for the audience and not for the speaker.We can't expect the audience read all the words the contains our ideas but is we the one who is the speaker are going to tell them what they want to know about..

yes..like that..now i know how to make my presentation more attractive and more interesting, especially in powerpoint. nowadays powerpoint had been an active device for us,student in giving and explaining information to the other especially to someone who do not know or cannot read our language. this video had told us the effective way to handle this problem by using graphics instead of words such as pictures,graph and videos. graphics do more job than words..express ourself

My opinion based on this title is he not show their style.As a good speaker i think that he cannot just read note only.We must understand messages that we show to audiences.Besides that,we must imagine what we talk.As a good speaker should has good pronounce.

Hello..."cut the words",from my understandings, I think it is about how to make people understands our presentations with
powerpoint.Firstly, to deliver the speech, we need to know first they can understands our presentations or not.Then,we need to presents our powerpoints with a good explanation to them,and give them some handouts,books for their reference.They always can refer into it when they do not get a picture in powerpoint presentations.Finally, we need to remember that powerpoint is the tool of visual communications.

as a presenter we can't put a lot of word in our powerpoint presentations...a lot of word will make the presentations bored because the audience want to hear what we are going to talk not to reading the powerpoint presentations...other than that we can replace the word with the videos or pictures that can make the presentations more effective and can attract the audience to hear what we want to talk about..

This video is by TJ Walker. It is so true that the presentation will be bored if there are too many words on the power point.It will be such a mess. There should be more visual or pictures to make it interesting to the audience. Power point is not a note to read. It is actually a way to present something to someone so that they understand exactly the content we are trying to deliver. Because of that it needs to be interesting to catch the audience attention. Add more pictures or visual to make it fun!!.. :)

I agree when T.J.Walker said that we should not fully depends on the power point. It's true that we are now advanced in technology but that's not a green card for us to neglect our audience needed.What an audience want are to listen to our voice, our expressions, our body language and how we rise their attention. We should use points only to avoid our audience from getting bored

in this video, the presenter emphasize more on graphical, picture or images in the power point presentation. His point is right, the use of power point is to grab the audience's attention not to make bored of the audience by expecting them to read every single text in the slides. So, in order to maintain the attention there, less words but more images is better and also the way of explaining and relation of each slide during the presentation.

In my opinion ,in this video ,TJ Walker is talking about how to present well in front of the audience by using Power Point .As TJ says ,Power Point is made for the audience and not for the presenter .So ,to explain something ,we should explain it in the form of graph ,chart ,cartoon and visual .In conclusion ,to make a good communication to the audience ,we can use Power Point with visual communication as our tool .

The clip “cut the words” shows the way of Microsoft presentation should be. A power point presentation should be a visual presentation and not as a medium to place our notes. We can’t expect the audience to understand every single word in our power point so we should give handouts in order for them to understand better about the topic.

In this video, the presenter suggest us to use visual communication when giving presentation. For example, we can use images,animation and picture to cut the words of our text. This can make audience more interest and faster to understand. Plus, this can make the audience whose does not understand our language can easily get the point and images to our presentation.

in my opinion,TJ Walker is giving a good tips how to make our power point can be understand by other people easily.he wants the audience to understand the power point only by looking at the images..he also suggest by giving hand outs for people to understands our presentation..make the powerpoint as visual communications with the audience..that's the best way

assalamualaikum miss..
after i hear the video's given,i understand that to be a good speaker,we must relax even the audience laugh or looking us..because when we think we afraid to sit in front of the audiene,it'll make us more panics..so if the audience looking us or laugh at us just ignore it because thinking all about that will make us lost on what we want to say or to present..what is more important is we must have a confident or we must realise on what we want to sayor to present..i have a mistake during presentation,we must know how to cover it for examples by doing a jokes or something else..

From this video clip,I got the lessons that it is important to give a message to everyone. It's not just to read the text, then the people cannot be understand. We as the speakers must good to attract the audiences with the power visuals as actions or whatever to give a message to audiences.

Good day.After i watched this clip, i also feel that putting pictures and animations could make the slideshows more interesting.Other than that,I also realised that do not put too much of words in one page.If we put too much of words in a page,the words certainly are small and hard to been seen by audience...TQ

From this video clip,the TJ Walker try to present out that we should putting some pictures and graphics design in the power point presentation.It is because the audiences will be not boring when seeing the presentstion.In my opinion,we can make a mind map during our presentations in the power point slide show because it will let the audiences easy to understand and remember the important point.

powerpoint.. its just a medium to throw your point in an easy way. putting picture and video as TJ Walker said are the best way to make our presentation look fresh an attract people to focus. Never use to much word in the powerpoint an u end with read it all.

assalamualaikum....
in my point of view....
the presenter is good in delivering his speech even he doesn't show any animation or visual...
from the video,we can learn how to make our presentation be more interesting and can attract the viewers..

Imagination are combination of pictures. It means that, we able to understand something better by looking at the images rather than words. Power point is a good medium of presentation. It should be full with images or animation rather than words because presentation means we want to deliver something to others. By that, audience will enlighten their selves from getting bored. Anyway, dont over do it or you will trap yourself in confusion.
