Good visuals in your presentation can clarify main points and make it much easier for you and your audience -- whether the visuals are illustrations on a flip chart, whiteboard, slide projector, power point projector or video.
But.
But remember that they must be used to help develop the main idea or concept behind your presentation or talk. And the visuals must support what you write and say as you develop this.
Used properly good, professionally created visuals difficult or complex parts of your presentation much easier to understand.
So don't just throw in a bunch of visuals just to make your presentation more colourful. Doing this will only make it more confusing.
Site down and plan everything carefully when you first start working on your presentation and make sure those visuals support your main idea and what you have to write or say about it.
And just remember that visuals do not need to be elaborate Power Point presentations to be effective.
Remember that old KISS formula:"Keep It Simple Stupid." The stupid part comes in when you go overboard to Shock and Awe your audience with elaborate visuals that only draw attention to themselves.
