# Presentation Master
|
||||
|
||||
World-class presentation creation skill that embodies best practices from presentation masters and adapts to your needs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Innovation**: This isn't just a presentation generator—it's a presentation *coach* that teaches world-class design while creating slides.
|
||||
|
||||
Principles from:
|
||||
- **Garr Reynolds** (Presentation Zen) - Simplicity and visual storytelling
|
||||
- **Nancy Duarte** (Resonate) - Story structure and audience as hero
|
||||
- **Guy Kawasaki** - 10/20/30 rule (10 slides, 20 minutes, 30pt fonts)
|
||||
- **Seth Godin** - 6 words maximum per slide
|
||||
- **TED** - Visual-first, minimal text, high impact
|
||||
- **Edward Tufte** - Data integrity and information design
|
||||
- **Steve Jobs** - Rule of Three and surprise moments
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflow: Guided Creation with Checkpoints
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Discovery & Context Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
**User provides**: Topic + Audience + Duration
|
||||
|
||||
**Skill analyzes**:
|
||||
- Presentation type (board update, keynote, training, TED-style)
|
||||
- Audience level (technical, executive, general public)
|
||||
- Key message and desired transformation
|
||||
- Story framework recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
**Checkpoint 1**: Present 3 structure options with rationale → user approves
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Content Development
|
||||
|
||||
**Skill develops**:
|
||||
- Research topic if needed (web search, Obsidian knowledge)
|
||||
- Extract maximum 10 core concepts (Kawasaki rule)
|
||||
- Apply "what is / what could be" alternation (Duarte)
|
||||
- Draft slide outline with one concept per slide
|
||||
- Identify slides needing visuals
|
||||
|
||||
**Checkpoint 2**: Present outline + visual plan → user approves
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Visual Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
**Skill proposes** for each visual slide:
|
||||
- Image type (infographic, photo, diagram, data visualization)
|
||||
- Visual concept/metaphor
|
||||
- Aesthetic direction (colors from brand, style, mood)
|
||||
- Estimated generation cost ($0.13-$0.24 per image)
|
||||
|
||||
**Checkpoint 3**: Present visual strategy → user approves images to generate
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 4: Generation & Validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Skill executes**:
|
||||
1. Generate approved images in parallel using image-gen skill
|
||||
2. Build slides using selected adapter (PPTX/Google Slides/Canva)
|
||||
3. Apply design rules automatically:
|
||||
- 30pt+ fonts minimum
|
||||
- <6 words per slide (Godin standard)
|
||||
- High contrast (4.5:1 minimum)
|
||||
- No bullet points
|
||||
- No paragraphs
|
||||
4. Run validation scoring (0-100 scale)
|
||||
5. Generate quality report
|
||||
|
||||
**Checkpoint 4**: Present presentation + quality report → user reviews
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 5: Iteration & Refinement (if needed)
|
||||
|
||||
**Skill refines**:
|
||||
- Apply requested changes
|
||||
- Re-validate quality score
|
||||
- Save final presentation to Obsidian Research folder
|
||||
- Document learnings and metadata
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation Scoring (0-100)
|
||||
|
||||
### CRITICAL Violations (Auto-fail)
|
||||
- Font size < 30pt
|
||||
- >10 core concepts
|
||||
- Bullet points detected
|
||||
- Paragraphs (>2 consecutive sentences)
|
||||
- Poor contrast ratio (<4.5:1)
|
||||
- Default template usage
|
||||
|
||||
### WARNING Flags
|
||||
- >6 words per slide
|
||||
- >15 slides for 20-min presentation
|
||||
- No images in presentation
|
||||
- Text-heavy slides (>3 lines)
|
||||
- Inconsistent fonts (>2 families)
|
||||
- Low-resolution images
|
||||
|
||||
### Quality Score Breakdown
|
||||
- **Simplicity** (10pts): Word count, visual clutter
|
||||
- **Visual Dominance** (10pts): Image quality, text-to-visual ratio
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
**Target Score**: 85+ for high-quality presentations
|
||||
|
||||
## Slide Pattern Library
|
||||
|
||||
### Six Core Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Title Slide** - Minimal text, strong visual, sets tone
|
||||
2. **One Big Idea** - Single word/number/image, max 6 words
|
||||
3. **Visual + Caption** - Large high-quality image, short caption
|
||||
4. **Data Visualization** - Charts following Tufte principles (maximize data-ink ratio)
|
||||
5. **Timeline/Process** - Linear flow, minimal text per step
|
||||
6. **Transition/Section Break** - Single word or phrase, signals shift
|
||||
|
||||
### Adaptive Pattern Selection
|
||||
|
||||
**Board/Executive Update**: Patterns 3, 4, 6 (data-focused, professional)
|
||||
**Keynote/TED-style**: Patterns 1, 2, 3 (story-focused, visual-first)
|
||||
**Training/Education**: Patterns 4, 5 (process-focused, clarity)
|
||||
**Pitch/Demo**: Patterns 2, 3, 4 (impact-focused, evidence-based)
|
||||
|
||||
## Story Frameworks
|
||||
|
||||
### Nancy Duarte's Sparkline
|
||||
- Alternate "what is" (current reality) with "what could be" (aspiration)
|
||||
- Build tension through contrast between present and future
|
||||
- End with transformation and new reality
|
||||
|
||||
### The Rule of Three (Steve Jobs)
|
||||
- Break presentation into 3 main sections
|
||||
- 3 key features/points per section
|
||||
- Memorable and dramatic
|
||||
|
||||
### TED Structure
|
||||
- Hook (first 30 seconds) - Grab attention
|
||||
- Personal connection - Why this matters to you
|
||||
- Core idea with evidence - The meat
|
||||
- Call to action - What next
|
||||
- Strong close - Never end with Q&A
|
||||
|
||||
## Output Format Support
|
||||
|
||||
### Current: PPTX (Phase 1)
|
||||
- Uses existing pptx skill
|
||||
- Direct PptxGenJS API for simple slides
|
||||
- html2pptx.js for complex layouts
|
||||
- Saves to Obsidian Research folder
|
||||
- Generates quality validation report
|
||||
|
||||
### Coming: Google Slides (Phase 2)
|
||||
- Google Slides API v1
|
||||
- Integrates with google-workspace skill
|
||||
- Supports all 3 accounts (psd, kh, hrg)
|
||||
- Returns shareable link
|
||||
|
||||
### Future: Canva (Phase 3)
|
||||
- Canva REST API
|
||||
- Auto-apply brand kits
|
||||
- Returns shareable link
|
||||
|
||||
## Image Generation Integration
|
||||
|
||||
### Intelligent Visual Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
For each slide, analyzes:
|
||||
- **Numeric data** → Infographic recommendation
|
||||
- **Abstract concepts** → Conceptual image/metaphor (especially for keynotes)
|
||||
- **Concrete examples** → Photo/realistic imagery
|
||||
- **Processes/flows** → Diagram recommendation
|
||||
- **Trends/comparisons** → Chart/data visualization
|
||||
|
||||
### Prompt Generation (6-Step Process)
|
||||
|
||||
From image-gen skill:
|
||||
1. Extract narrative from slide content
|
||||
2. Choose visual concept/metaphor
|
||||
3. Apply aesthetic (brand colors, presentation style)
|
||||
4. Construct detailed prompt
|
||||
5. Execute generation
|
||||
6. Validate output
|
||||
|
||||
### Cost Management
|
||||
- Show total estimated cost before generating
|
||||
- Allow opt-out of specific images
|
||||
- Cache generated images for reuse
|
||||
- Track spending in presentation metadata
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming Convention
|
||||
```
|
||||
{presentation-id}-slide-{number}-{type}.png
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
cybersecurity-2025-slide-02-threat-timeline.png
|
||||
port-ai-2025-slide-04-breakthroughs.png
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Brand Integration
|
||||
|
||||
Automatically detects and applies branding:
|
||||
- **PSD presentations**: Use psd-brand-guidelines skill (Sea Glass, Pacific, etc.)
|
||||
- **Personal presentations**: Use personal brand (if defined)
|
||||
- **Client presentations**: Custom brand kit (future)
|
||||
|
||||
Applies to:
|
||||
- Color palettes
|
||||
- Typography choices
|
||||
- Logo placement
|
||||
- Overall aesthetic
|
||||
|
||||
## Learning & Metadata Tracking
|
||||
|
||||
After each presentation, save metadata to Obsidian:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"presentation_id": "cybersecurity-2025-board",
|
||||
"type": "board-update",
