New Media Cincinnati November 2008 Meetup - Pecha Kucha!
EVENT DETAILS
The next meetup will be this coming Saturday, November 15, 2008, from 2-4 PM EST at the University of Cincinnati. Please RSVP via the Eventbrite page.
PECHA WHAT?
What is Pecha Kucha, you ask? Simply stated, it’s a presentation style in which the presenter has 20 slides and talks for 20 seconds per slide, so that you wind up with a punchier presentation. Read these two articles (the second one has an embedded YouTube video that illustrates the point nicely):
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pecha Kucha
- Pecha Kucha: Get to the PowerPoint in 20 slides and then sit down
KEEP THIS IN MIND
Sound like fun? Wanna take a stab at this format and share something with the rest of the group? Here’s what you need to do/keep in mind, should you decide to present:
- The topic should be something related to New/Social Media
- You will need to come up with your own 20 slides
- You can put the presentation onto your own laptop or bring a thumb drive with it (I believe UC’s computers run MS Office, so think PowerPoint if you’re going to use that option.)
- We will set up the presentation so that it will automatically advance to the next slide after 20 seconds
