Cuts

Trey

20 slides is too many! Need to cut things.

A lot of the slides could go on for 10 minutes themselves. Re-use them as optional slides for Q&A.

Cut before recording. There’s too much to cut post-recording; it would be janky!

Have to be really high level, short story. We’re going to have to cut out meaty things. “Hooks” to pull people in.

Tell a shorter story

Trey

  • Our goal/problem
  • How did we achieve the goals?
  • What are the takeaways without going in to the details of any particular area. Tease people to go to the blog post.
  • End with the blog post.
  • My email if you have questions. QGreenland email? GitHub Discussions QR code

Alyse

  • 1 slide: goal/problem
  • 1 slide: solution/approach
  • 1 slide: meat of the solution
  • 1 slide: outcomes, why you should do it
  • 1 slide: how you can do it

Sometimes at AGU first slide is a preview of the whole presentation.

  • Thesis: How to make an online computing environment for a workshop that’s globally accessible
  • Why am I speaking? Share what we learned.

Intro

Alyse

Keep intro short. Introduce self, not rest of team.

“What is QGreenland” in 5 seconds. PICTURE!! and QR code. Emphasize responsibility to educate. Introduce this before or after setting up the problem? Whatever feels more natural.

Trey

Make it really obvious from the start that people are in the right place and presentation is what they expected.

Video demo

Alyse

There is a recording of the QGreenland workshop, will make it available on OneDrive or something. reach out if urgent! Maybe re-usable footage!

Stills to use on slides!

Alyse
