Keynote for the Mac Class

Watch my class on Creating Presentations with Keynote on the Mac! Apple’s Keynote app has been around for years and is rumored to be developed for Keynotes hosted by Steve Jobs. If you have never watched one of his Keynotes, I highly encourage you to YouTube them. They are the gold standard when it comes to presentation and are what a lot of presenters aspire to copy. Why? They are simple yet full of information and entertaining to watch. Obviously that is because of Steve Jobs himself, but also it’s the tools he uses. In the later years, most of his presentation screens were created with Keynote, an app that comes free on every Mac and is available for free on the iPad and iPhone. With Keynote, you can create simple and beautiful presentation to support what you are saying. You can add transitions between slide, add builds, and export them as images or as a movie. You can even add a background audio track. I go over these features and more in this class.
