SID 2008
SYMPOSIUM
Audio Visual
Submission Procedures and Guidelines for Oral Presentations
PRE-SUBMISSION OF
ELECTRONIC PRESENTATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET
SID authors are requested to read
this material in order to properly upload their presentation
visuals in advance of the meeting. ProjectionNet is a
web-enabled presentation delivery and management system that
will allow SID presenters the opportunity to upload their
PowerPoint presentations directly to a SID 2007 presentation
server prior to arriving on-site for the 2007 conference. This
pre-submission upload site will be active Monday, April 30th,
2008,
and can be accessed from your web browser. Detailed
instructions for uploading your presentation will be e-mailed to
you two weeks before the site goes "live". The deadline for pre-submitting
your
presentation electronically will be Wednesday, (May 16, 2008), the
Wednesday prior to the start of the meeting.
The pre-submission
upload process of your presentation is broken into three parts:
the Login, the Upload and the Confirmation.
1. Login - The
e-mail notification referenced above will supply a URL,
"unique identifier" and password. This "unique
identifier" and password will be queried against SID's
database of presenters and if validated by the server, you will
be sent to the Upload page.
2. Upload - On this page, you
will be presented with a "data grid" which displays
information about when and where you are presenting. You will be
asked to create a folder on your hard drive, name the folder
according to our instructions and put your presentation and any
accompanying files within it. You will then use a special
"applet" on the web page to find the folder you just
created on your hard drive, and upload it. During the upload
process, you will see a progress bar that "accurately"
indicates the amount of time left before the upload is complete.
3. Confirmation - After the files
are successfully written to the server, you will be sent to the
confirmation page, where you are shown a listing of the files
that were successfully uploaded to the server. During this
process, an email is created and sent to you and the SID
technical crew, reiterating this same information. Also, our
internal presentation database is updated, to indicate the date
and time that you uploaded your presentation. You will then be
asked to logout to finish the process.
Please keep in mind that this
electronic pre-submission presentation delivery system will
benefit those presenters with high-speed internet access or
those electronic presentations below 50 MB in size with a
dial-up service account. Presenters with large, embedded video
movie files within their PowerPoint presentations should make it
a point to deliver their presentation media to the speaker ready
room for review and loading of their presentation onto the show
server in person, at your allotted time frame. Otherwise, the
upload process of your presentation on-line could take a very
long time, even with high-speed connectivity to our site.
SPEAKER READY
ROOM CHECK-IN PROCEDURES
- If you pre-submitted your presentation,
please come to the Speaker Ready Room, a minimum of 24 hours in advance of
your talk. Otherwise, take your presentation to Speaker
Ready Room, a minimum of 24 hours in
advance of your talk.
- Upon arrival at the Speaker
Ready Room, a technician will check you in, upload your
presentation if necessary and then assign you to one of 10 preview stations where you will be able to review and
finalize your presentation.
- Once you have finalized your
presentation, there will be limited opportunity to make
further changes. Please make every effort to finalize your
presentation for AM sessions by closing time the day prior
and for PM sessions by 11:30 am that day.
- Speaker Ready Room personnel
are not responsible for your devices, i.e. memory cards,
disks, laptops, etc.
- Internet connectivity is not
available in oral session rooms.
If you are attending the SID
convention only for the day of your session, we strongly
recommend still visiting the Speaker Ready Room as early as
possible to test and load your presentation file into the
presentation server. An audio/visual technician will be on duty
in each individual workshop room to ensure a smooth transition
between speakers in meeting rooms, to answer any equipment
questions and to adjust lighting and sound levels to your
requirements.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL
PRESENTERS BE ALLOWED TO E-MAIL PRESENTATIONS TO SID.

GUIDELINES FOR
COMPATIBILITY
Fonts: The presentation
systems will be loaded with Standard Windows Fonts. If
your presentation contains any special fonts, you must provide a
copy of the font, to be loaded on the presentation system. To be
safe, use Arial, or Times New Roman to create your presentation.
Please pay special attention to fonts, if you use scientific
notation within your presentation, as this is often written
using a non-standard font.
Formatting: Presentations
are most readable when using a dark background (Blue, for
example) and bright lettering (Yellow or White). It is often
helpful to step 8-10 feet back from your computer screen and
make sure that your slides are readable. Stay away from small
fonts which will be illegible from the back of the room, and
break up a complex slide into a series of slides, to make it
more intelligible.
Slide Master: Make use of
the Slide Master capability of PowerPoint, to standardize the
look of your presentation. That way, if you need to change the
bullets or fonts, they can be changed globally. (You won't have
to edit each slide individually)
Embedded Images: The
maximum display resolution of our presentation machines is
1024x768. When inserting images into a PowerPoint presentation,
you should reduce their Image Size (in an external program, like
Photoshop) to approximate their on-screen size in the
Presentation. If you insert large scanned images, or large
images from a digital camera (above 1024x768) PowerPoint will
have to re-size the image to fit the screen
"on-the-fly" during your presentation. This will cause
your presentation to be much larger (in MB) than it needs to be
and can often cause unwanted pauses, and slow performance during
slide advance.
Linked Media Files: If you
will be using Linked Media Files, please create a folder on your
machine and store your presentation and all the media files
within that folder. That way when you transfer the files to us,
you will be sure to transfer all the appropriate files, and
their relative location will remain the same.
Media files fall into three
categories:
1) Files that can be played
within PowerPoint natively
2) Files that can be played within PowerPoint, with the
addition of an appropriate "Codec"
3) Files that cannot be played within your PowerPoint
presentation and require an external viewer.
Windows Media: Generally,
any media file that can be played within Windows Media Player,
can be linked to your PowerPoint Presentation (and be played
from within it). Please pay close attention to the Codec that
was used to encode the file. If you're not sure what it is,
please contact the person who created the file. Some examples of
Codec's that are supported directly for playback within your
presentation are: MPEG1, Indeo 5 and Cinepak, If you are using a
"non-standard" codec, you will have to provide a copy
of it to us at least 24 hours in advance, so we may install it
on the presentation machine.
Real Player and QuickTime
movies, cannot be played within your PowerPoint presentation.
However you can create an "Action Button" which will
allow you to click on an icon in your PowerPoint slide and it
will spawn the appropriate viewer application and load the movie
for you. Because of this limitation, you may want to consider
compressing your movie file into an appropriate Windows Media
format.
Macintosh Users: There are
a number of challenges involved in transferring PowerPoint
presentations between the Mac and Windows. Fonts are often a
problem, and you may want to consider using Times New Roman. If
you have any embedded images, please convert them to JPEG before
inserting them into your Presentation. (Otherwise they may not
transfer properly) If you are using QuickTime movies in your
presentation, you will incur the same limitations outlined
above.
Unix Users must have HTML
files or PDF files in Adobe Acrobat 5.05.
Acrobat Reader: You are
welcome to bring your files in Acrobat's PDF format; however,
editing these files at the meeting will not be possible.
HTML presentations: Make
sure that your files are portable. Data will be copied from your
media to the networks hard drive. If files are not portable, you
could lose links between pages.
Web Server: Web Server is
not on the network so please plan accordingly.
Other Plug-Ins or Active X
controls: These cannot be installed into the network. If
your presentation takes advantage of a function not built into
Internet Explorer 5.5 or the Plug-Ins mentioned above, you may
have difficulties on site.
Please contact SID@projection.com
with questions.
PREPARATION OF YOUR
PRESENTATION
- Graphics must be well
designed, simple, and readable by everyone in the audience.
It is worthwhile to use professional preparation services,
if possible.
- Use as few graphics as needed that can be
discussed in the time allotted. As a general rule, use one
graphic for each one or two minutes of presentation time.
- Presentations are most
readable when using a dark background (blue, for example)
and bright lettering (yellow or white). If is often helpful
to step 8-10 feet back from your computer screen and make
sure that your slides are readable. Stay away from small
fonts which will be illegible from the back of the room, and
break up a complex slide into a series of slides.
- Devote each graphic to a
single fact, idea, or finding. Illustrate major points or
trends, not detailed data.
- Do not show long or
complicated formulas or equations. Each graphic should
remain on the screen at least 20 seconds.
- Use the absolute minimum
number of words in the title, subtitle, and captions.
Remember that standard abbreviations are acceptable.
- Use bold characters not fancy
serifs.
- Table preparation: Do not use
more than three or four vertical columns and six to eight
horizontal rows. If there are any more columns or rows, the
information will not be readable. Do not use ruled vertical
or horizontal lines; they distract the eye and clutter the
graphic. Whenever possible, present data using bar charts or
graphs instead of tables.
- Graph preparation: Generally,
do not use more than one or two curves on one diagram; a
maximum of three to four curves may be shown, but only if
well separated. Label each curve; do not use symbols and a
legend. Do not show data points unless scatter is important.
- Colored graphs are very
effective. Color adds attractiveness, interest and clarity
to slide and viewgraph illustrations and should be used
whenever possible. If you use color, remember that
contrasting colors are easier to see.
- Critically examine every
graphic and view them under adverse light conditions before
presenting at a meeting. It is sometimes impossible to
provide excellent light conditions at meetings.
- An introductory and concluding
graphic can greatly improve the focus of your talk.
FONT LIST
If the typeface you are using in
your presentation does not show up in this list, your text will
not display in the exact lettering style you want, and may
change the precise positioning and flow of text.
