PechaKucha<\/a> <\/strong><\/em>(‘Pe chak cha’) comes to Ottawa<\/a> on March 31st<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Quoi?!<\/em><\/p>\n

PechaKucha<\/em> started in 2003 as a way for people to present work in an informal but structured way to a group of peers. Participants prepare 20 photos that are presented for 20 seconds – no more no less.<\/p>\n

Editing Exercise<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a fabulous exercise in editing and mimics the kind of decisions needed to deliver a proposal to a prospective client. You are limited to few photos to get your skills and message across – choosing only 20 is tough and depends on who is viewing and what your intended message is!<\/p>\n

PechaKucha is generous in the number of photos and time per slide. In reality, you may present ten photos for 2-3 secomds each when catching a client’s attention.<\/p>\n

Pecha Kucha is often considered as the basis of framework for effective presentations<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
