The PowerPoint® Blog

Hello, Tech Support. Yes, I have a problem, none of my blog posts have shown up…

Happily, it is very busy here at TLC Creative Services. But I am not happy with the blog. I setup 2 weeks of posts that everyone should have been enjoying while I bury myself in presentation design, new office build out and other design tasks. But apparently you have to click the “publish” button to make those spooled up posts show up on the days they are suppose to! Sorry, my oversight. The good news is between the posts that did not show up, the new ones I have been working on, and the great upcoming events I have the next two months of posts covered! I will reorganize things and start the process (again) tomorrow.

This is the digital signage at a recent show. It was updated every morning with the attendee schedule for that day. There were a number of these 52″ plasma screens outside each ballroom entrance, all displaying a PPT slide.

But designing these slides is a bit challenging. The plasma screen is rotated, but the computer still sees a horizontal 1920×1080 display. The solution is to create a sideways slide, as Lori is skillfully doing.

This was a much bigger production over previous posts with my graphics tech area backstage with a several other tech departments. My department and five computers are highlighted by the red line.

This recent show was another where I was “front of house” (where the tech area is in the audience area, facing the stage). You can see my 3 show computers in the foreground and the fantastic staging design and work of the lighting director.

Just a quick photo of a recent show, I was onsite leading the onscreen graphics/presentations.
