@thestarkster Great point about balance, and the comparison with Bollywood movies is spot on!

Gurkaran Singh · Answer

It's all about finding the perfect balance between visual appeal and quality content in a presentation. Engaging visuals can grab attention, but it's the substance of the content that will keep your audience hooked. Remember, a good presentation is like a Bollywood movie - it needs both the flashy dance numbers (visual appeal) and a solid script (content) to be a hit!

In the end, the most important part is the content. Of course, if the presentation is visually appealing, it's easier to capture people's attention, but without substance there is no point, and people will close the presentation and forget about it as fast as they opened it 🤷‍♂️

However, it's great when you can achieve both interesting and valuable content and beautiful visuals that help to reinforce the brand and convey the creator's thoughts to the audience!
