"Tech Presentation Bootcamp"

by Scott Davis

Scott Davis has been giving technical presentations for over 20 years. In this talk, he'll share his (far too) hard-won knowledge of what makes a successful presentation, and tips to be a more successful presenter.

You'll start by gathering a bunch of random thoughts and keystrokes and transforming them into a coherent narrative -- a Hero's Journey that has a distinct beginning, middle, and end. You'll learn how to switch seamlessly between slideware (code on slides) and live demos -- and how to gracefully recover from demo mishaps along the way. But most importantly, you'll learn how to do less teaching and more story telling.

Kick PowerPoint to the curb! Ditch that proprietary (but oh so beautiful!) Keynote. Modern HTML5 browsers now have the power and sophistication to replace these presentation software mainstays.

In this talk, Scott Davis will show you three different HTML presentation frameworks. We'll start with the tried-and-true warhorse Slidy.js -- a framework developed by the W3C that has been around for nearly a decade and runs on every legacy browser on the planet. Next, we'll use AsciiDoc and Deck.js for a wiki-like slide creation experience. Finally, we'll use Yeoman and Reveal.js to create a fully modern HTML5 web experience that runs on everything from smartphones to tablets, from laptops to desktops, and everything in-between.
