Putting Together A Keynote
1. First I decided what the theme of my theme-based presentation would be. I thought that it would probably be easiest to do an artist, since artists usually have a lot of information circulating because of their artwork and their histories.
2. Then did some research on Vincent Van Gogh. I didn't want to have TOO many sources so I tried to compensate by mainly using this one source. It's a pretty good source too! It has videos about Vincent Van Gogh, pictures, histories, summaries, quotes, everything! (Here: http://www.biography.com/people/vincent-van-gogh-9515695)
3. After that I complied a lot of the research into a Keynote (a PowerPoint-type of iPad app). My art teacher suggested this, so we could have an outline for the final draft.
4. Next I looked for photos of Vincent's artwork (and photos of Vincent) while making sure I was also crediting all the sources they came from. I probably should have done this before making the Keynote, but it was easier to not write out everything I was going to say, just the notes. Then I could decide what pictures I needed where! You should definitely know what you're going to say about the artwork before choosing it, then it fits in the exhibit!
5. Finally, when I was satisfied, I moved it to Emaze (an 'Emaze'-ing presenting site). You need to make an account for Emaze, but there's a free account option. Also, it looks pretty awesome afterwards, especially for art presentations!

mazing!This was my first time using Emaze, and I've gotta say that it was pretty easy and it looks very professional! At least, I'm fairly sure it does. It only plays a little bit on my computer because my computer is very very slow! However, from what I've seen, the moving screen looks pretty cool! It was a perfect layout too! It looks just like an art gallery! If it doesn't work Click Here.
