Chapter 2. Using Audio

There's more to delivering a presentation than just making it look great with some snazzy imagery. Sure we can stimulate the audience visually to help them understand our message, but a lot of thought also needs to be given as to what they hear. A lot of your audience may have a very auditory learning style, and so it's important we try and factor this into our Prezi designs as well.

In this chapter, you'll learn how to add sound to your Prezi files, and become aware of some important points to think about when in the design stage. Topics to be covered include:

  • How Prezi plays sound

  • Using the .swf or .wmv files for sound

  • Adding background music

  • Using sound at specific points in your Prezi
