Here’s How to Give the Best Video Presentation of Your Life

Your video presentation doesn’t need to bore your attendees to tears. Here are seven strategies to keep participants engaged and awake.

You’ve been asked to give a video presentation at a virtual conference. You’re excited about the opportunity to share your expertise, but you’re also worried about how you’ll manage to hold interest. 

Let’s face it: It’s notoriously tough to keep people focused during virtual presentations. 

In fact, 67% of workers say they find it easier to be distracted during virtual meetings compared to in-person ones. Even worse? 55% of respondents admit that they’ve checked their emails during those virtual sessions. 

7 tips for video presentations that don’t make eyes glaze over

So, are you doomed to spend an hour talking to a bunch of people who’d rather be elsewhere? Will all of your time spent preparing be wasted as you watch attendees turn off their cameras and do who knows what as you ramble on?

Not quite. Rest assured, there are some tips you can put into play to deliver a compelling video presentation that keeps your virtual event participants on the hook. 

1. Curate the right environment

If you want other people to be totally tuned into the topic you’re presenting, you need to start by creating a non-distracting environment – both for your benefit and your participants’. 

There are a number of different ways to ensure you have the right setting for your virtual presentation, including:

Finding a quiet space where you’ll be free from interruptions (like barking dogs or kids who choose the most inopportune time to come in and ask for fruit snacks).

Cleaning up your background so that you’re the main focus. Taking a few minutes to tidy up is better than turning on a virtual background, as the majority of people prefer to see the actual room behind the speaker. 

Ensuring you have appropriate lighting so that attendees can see your face without shadows and glares. 

Think about it this way: Would you want to deliver an in-person presentation in a dimly-lit room with laundry baskets in the background? We didn’t think so. 

While getting your space ready for a virtual or hybrid event will take a little more work than simply showing up to a well-prepped conference center, it’s well worth the effort to curate an environment that shows you’re ready to get down to business. 

2. Check your technology 

Can you see my screen? Hold on a second, I just need to click over to my slides. Is my audio echoing for anybody else? 

Nothing derails your presentation faster than frustrating technology glitches. They’re annoying for both you and your participants, and unfortunately those delays can mean that you lose the attention and trust of your attendees before you even get to the content of your presentation.

Plus, they immediately slow you down and shake your confidence. They’re tough to bounce back from, especially when you feel frazzled and like you need to rush through certain aspects of your talk in order to make up for that lost time.

For that reason, it’s crucial that you triple-check all of your technology during your presentation rehearsals. And, it’s smart to use a video meeting platform that’s simple and intuitive. Whereby Embedded makes it easy to embed your video meeting directly within the website or app for your virtual conference, so everybody can navigate right to your session without annoying passcodes, waiting rooms, or technology hiccups. 

3. Switch up your format

While there’s a lot of debate over what our actual attention span is (you’ll hear the range of five to 10 minutes cited a lot), there’s no denying that whatever it is, it’s short.

You could present a surefire method to win the lottery, and people are probably still going to start to zone out after a few minutes of you droning on and on. And we don’t blame them – it’s tough to stay focused, particularly in a virtual environment. 

That’s why it’s so helpful to keep switching up the format of your presentation by mixing in various elements like:

Breakout sessions (more on these a little later)

Exercises and games

Questions and open discussions

Videos or demonstrations

This array of formats keeps your content fresh and your attendees on their toes. And it’s far preferable to spending an hour reading from your slides.

4. Leverage storytelling 

Imagine that you’re attending a presentation about the importance of accurate record keeping. 

Do you want to hear a bunch of statistics about why it matters? Or do you want to hear about the time a single spreadsheet error led to a synchronized swimming event being oversold by 10,000 tickets at the 2012 London Olympics?

The latter is far more compelling, isn’t it? And it speaks to the power of incorporating storytelling into your presentations. In fact, researchers have found that stories can cause oxytocin synthesis in our brains. That not only gets us more engaged, but also inspires us to take action. 

So, look for places where you can incorporate anecdotes or real-world examples. Those will hit home with your attendees far more than endless facts and figures. 

5. Remember that your visual aids should be visual

We’ve all sat through presentations where the presenter’s slides were filled with walls of text or bullet points of what they wanted to cover.

Of course, you can (and should) have your own notes to guide you through all of the important points of your presentation – but that doesn’t mean your audience needs to read along with you. Not only is it boring, but one study found that showing audiences the exact same words that were being spoken reduces audience comprehension. 

Your visual aids should be, well, visual . Rather than filling your PowerPoint, Keynote, Prezi, or Google Slides with meaningless text, keep your slide deck interesting with:

Bite-sized statistics or facts

Graphs and charts

Relevant images

Even the occasional funny GIF or meme can keep your audience more engaged with your presentation (not to mention lighten the mood and inspire a little chuckle). 

6. Use breakout sessions to boost engagement 

If you have a particularly large group of attendees or a longer time slot for your virtual presentation, you’ll likely notice more participation and engagement if you break people into small groups – at least for a portion of your session.

There are a number of reasons for that, but much of it is owed to the fact that tighter groups reduce the potential for social loafing – a psychological concept that states that people put in less effort when they’re in groups than they do when they’re on their own, because they assume that other group members will help shoulder the burden.

Whereby makes it easy to start breakout sessions and groups , so you can give people the chance to connect more personally without interrupting the flow of your presentation.  

7. Invite active participation

Breakout groups certainly help people feel like they’re part of the discussion – rather than being preached to for an hour or so. But, there are a few other things you can do to fuel the feeling that virtual attendees are active participants: 

Encourage emoji reactions: Even if your attendees don’t have their own cameras on, emoji reactions give them the opportunity to share how they feel. Believe it or not, the same part of our brain that processes facial expressions also processes emojis. Whereby has live emoji reactions, by the way. 

Periodically stop for questions: While you don’t want tangents to throw your presentation off track, skipping any questions until the end of your talk can make attendees feel unheard and disconnected. Plus, stopping regularly to give people a chance to ask questions as they come up almost always leads to more productive, engaging, and insightful conversations.

Involve attendees in examples and demonstrations: This is tougher to do during a virtual event than an in-person one, but find ways to involve your audience members whenever you can. Have them act out an example scenario or ask them to share something with the group. The more you can work them into your presentation, the more alert they’ll be. 

Is everybody still awake out there?

When one in three people admit they’ve felt drowsy or even dozed off during a work meeting, the last thing you want is for the presentation you worked so hard on to quite literally lull people to sleep. 

While virtual conferences have their benefits, it can admittedly feel more challenging to keep the energy up. 

Fortunately, you can do more than accept the fact that some people will catch a much-needed snooze during your session. Use these strategies, and you’ll create a video presentation that keeps your participants engaged (and, you know, awake).

Making a video presentation with Lumen5 is a bit different from the other software we mention here.

The original idea with Lumen5 when it started was to import the URL of a blog post and the AI software created a video for you. A few years after inception Lumen5 is now a stronger software with more features to support their original idea. 

Lumen5 is a cloud-based video presentation software.

The Interface

The Lumen5 interface is simple and easy to grasp. There are two very similar interfaces, one that has a content tab for when you upload a blog post or long text and the interface to use with templates. The only difference is the content tab.

Text layouts have limited customizations for placement and animation. All animations are automatic but can be personalized to some extent.

Video proportions can be changed into all social media sizes easily and all the content rearranges itself automatically. There are no undo-redo controls.

Available Templates

The Lumen5 software offers a number of templates to start with. There aren’t a ton of options, but enough to get you started. Every template has various size versions so the complete template gallery looks bigger than it really is.

Available Visuals

The visuals available in Lumen5 consist of stock images and video clips. Depending on your subscription level, you can access up to 330M stock photos from Getty and Shutterstock. You can upload images, video and audio from the desktop or straight from your phone.

There are no data visualization capabilities in Lumen5.

All paid plans have branding options like fonts, music and a branded outro.

There are many music audio clips available in the software and you can upload your own audio clips too. Users can also add their own voiceover to their presentation.

Lumen5 videos cannot be any longer than 10 minutes, regardless of your plan.

Video Output

All videos are downloaded as MP4, in horizontal, vertical or square formats. They can be embedded or shared to Facebook.

The quality of the video depends on your subscription plan.

Apart from their free plan, Lumen5 has four paid plans. Pricing is as follows:

• Basic: $19/month
• Starter: $59/month
• Professional: $149
• Enterprise: Upon request

Who is Lumen5 For

Lumen5 is perfect for content creators that want to create videos from their blog posts. Also for those who post a lot of content on Facebook, the integration is quite seamless. 

This video presentation software is also for people who don’t want to be fussing with too many tools and want things done fast.

Biteable markets their video creation software as a marketing video maker. Nevertheless, the horizontal format on Biteable also works well as a video presentation.

Biteable is a cloud-based video presentation software.

Using the Biteable 3.0 editor is easy and straightforward. The tools for editing fonts are simple with the ability to change the font, size and color. The animation of the text is done per slide so you can’t animate one piece of text one way and another in a different way.

The video editor is separated into text, footage and music tracks. You can edit the footage by trimming.

There are no undo and redo controls.

Biteable offers hundreds of pre-designed video templates to start with. Additionally, from inside the editor, you can access a library of video slides. We’re big fans of the claymation explainer animated slides.

The image and footage library has thousands of ready to use photos and clips. Most are from Unsplash —the same photo library you already get access to with Visme .

There are no data visualization tools available in Biteable.

Easily add a watermark, upload fonts and use hex codes for colors. However, there isn’t a set Brand Kit.

The Biteable software offers stock audio and you can upload your own.

Biteable has a maximum video length limit of 10 minutes.

Videos can be shared online or downloaded as Mp4 HD and full HD. Both are available on paid plans.

The free plan only lets you create videos. In order to download, you’ll have to upgrade to one of the plans. Their pricing is as follows:

• Pro: $49/month
• Teams: $99/month

Who is Biteable For

Biteable is for content creators that work mostly with social media. 

The Animaker video presentation software has lots of tools and resources to make complex videos of any type. Choose between animated videos and live-action videos. 

The video editing controls are more elaborate than on other programs and the character animation options are extensive.

Animaker has two interface options, a full and a lite version. The full version has all the tools on hand to create scenes, animated character options, frame editing and more. 

The lite version is a simplified editor window for users who don’t need to have all the tools available at all times. Switching from one to the other is easy.

There are no undo-redo options.

Animaker has millions of templates in both animation and live-action formats. Before starting a video creation, select from the template sizes. 

Once inside the editor, all the other templates in the same size are also available through the magic box tab.

There are millions of images and video clips, shapes, icons, designed text layouts, plus animated video clips, customizable characters and animated scene effects.

There are no data visualization tools available. 

The software has a simple brand kit in the user dashboard. Animaker brand kits include an animated character, and an intro/outro set. Assets are available in the editor.

Videos can have music or voice-overs recorded with the user’s computer microphone. The media library has many audio files to choose from, organized by category and style. Audio files can also be uploaded.

Free plans can create videos up to 2 minutes in length. Some paid plans can create videos of up to 30 minutes.

Finished videos can be downloaded as MP4 in varying qualities. Shapes can be horizontal, vertical or square. GIFs can be downloaded at a limit of 30 seconds. Videos can also be shared directly to Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. 

Additionally, videos can be downloaded for specific social outlets like Slack and Flickr. The software suggests optimization for each channel.

The free plan lets you download as many videos as you want—but with a watermark. Some other options are available in the free plan but are limited. The Starter and Pro plans have a limited amount of downloads with an extra price for additional downloads.

Plan pricing is as follows:

• Basic: $12.5/month
• Starter: $25/month
• Pro: $39/month

Who is Animaker For

Animaker is for any kind of content creator. Highly geared at creators looking for explainer videos but now expanded to more options. The learning curve is not very high but it still needs some getting used to, especially in the timeline editor tools.

Powtoon has long been a favorite for creating video presentations, especially explainer videos. Their animated and whiteboard explainers have been around for a while. 

Now the software has a lot more creative options for making video presentations in five main styles with lots of templates in each. 

The main size is horizontal presentation but you can also switch to square and vertical.

Powtoon is a cloud-based video presentation software.

The editor interface on Powtoon has two options. Editor and Creator. When you choose a template, the editor interface opens on Edit, with options to customize the content in the template. 

By switching to Create, then many more options show up and you can add lots of things to a video presentation.

Powtoon has thousands of templates in five categories; modern edge, whiteboard, cartoon, infographic and real. All the templates are available before starting a project and also once inside the editor. 

You can also import PowerPoint presentations as a beta feature.

The visuals available are varied and extensive. There are thousands of different animated characters, which is what Powtoon is known for. Additionally, there are icons, shapes, design elements, images and video clips. 

There are charts but they are not editable. Apart from those, there are no data visualization tools available.

There is no practical brand kit available but since the editing options are extensive, videos can be branded to some extent. The ability to upload fonts is only available in the highest subscription. 

Also, resell right and white label rights are available in the Agency Plan.

Corporate and Enterprise plans have a brand toolkit. These plans are upon request.

Users can record voice-overs or music directly into the software. The music upload feature has an integration with Fiverr to hire a professional music creator. Additionally, there are hundreds of tracks to choose from right inside the app.

The maximum video length on Powtoon is 30 minutes.

Videos can be downloaded, published to social channels, or shared directly. Downloads can be MP4, PPT or PDF.

6 PowerPoint

The classic PowerPoint software,  and powerful Google Slide alternative ,  can also be used as a video presentation software. 

Any presentation created with PowerPoint can be saved as a video in MP4 or MOV file. You simply create a presentation how you would normally, add animations and audio, then export or save as an MP4 or MOV file.

Don’t forget that you can also import a PPTX presentation to Visme and add all of our visual features to make an even better video presentation.

The PowerPoint interface has a toolbar on top just like all Microsoft software. There are many options for creating video presentations, from animated titles, images and graphics to creative transitions between slides. 

The slides are organized on the left hand tab and slide templates are added easily with different layouts to choose from. 

You can use any of the classic templates that PowerPoint has to offer to create a video presentation.  Additionally you can use any PowerPoint template from sites online or specialized PowerPoint slide creators.

You can also start a video presentation quickly with the help of QuickStarter. Simply add a topic to start with a PowerPoint outline and start your presentation from there.

There are plenty of standard visuals in PowerPoint for video presentations. You can select shapes, images, animation effects for text and other visual elements like tables, graphs and 3D models. 

There is also a section called smart design that offers premade templates of visuals like flowcharts, cycles and other types of layouts.

PowerPoint has a variety of charts and graphs for your video presentations. Data can be imported from Excel or entered manually. 

Create branded video presentations by selecting color palettes, using your brand fonts and adding your logo. Branded templates can be saved for future use to stay on brand.

Video presentations can be downloaded as MP4 or MOV files. There are no sharing capabilities to social media or email. If you aren’t fully happy with your video presentation, save it as a PPTX file and upload it to Visme to finish off with better tools.

PowerPoint can be purchased on its own for a one-time fee of $159.99, or users can choose to sign up for the full Microsoft 365 subscription starting at $6.99/month.

Keynote is the Apple version of PowerPoint. It comes included with all Apple computers and is relatively easy to use. The tools are not as varied as PowerPoint but it’s still pretty useful. 

The highest pro to Keynote is that it’s free with all Mac computers. Apart from that it’s just a simple video presentation maker.

The Keynote interface is simple and no-frills. The tools are organized in small tabs that don’t take up too much space on the dashboard and editor. Slides are listed on the left, tools are on top and settings are on the right. 

Undo and redo options are controlled with keyboard shortcuts ctrl+Z and ctrl+Y.

Keynote has a number of available templates to start designing. There haven’t been any new ones added to the program lately. You can import any templates from third party sites like Envato.

The only available visuals in Keynote are icons and charts. Images and videos can be uploaded from your computer easily but there aren’t any available inside the software. The visuals that are available in the software can all be animated

Keynote offers a number of charts and graphs in three different styles, flat, 3D and interactive. Input the data in a sheet inside the program manually.

Branded video presentations are created easily by using a brand’s color palette but Keynote will only let you use Apple fonts.

Upload audio clips are uploaded into a video presentation directly for your computer. There are no available audio files inside the program. You can record a voiceover with your microphone.

There is no length limit to download video presentations. You can also download animated GIFs. 

You can download video presentations from Keynote as mp4 or animated GIFs. They can’t be shared to social media straight from the program.

Keynote is free with all Mac computers. Windows users can get Keynote with an Apple iCloud account.

Who is Keynote For

Anyone can use Keynote, especially since it’s free. Even if it doesn’t have the greatest of features, it can create any sort of simple video presentations for any industry. Keynote is a great choice for students who always need to create presentations for class .

Vyond is the new name for GoAnimate, a recognized video presentation software. The new rebrand has also come along with a new look and more features. Vyond video presentations are all about the characters and the number of ways they can be customized is pretty extensive. 

Apart from that, all other features are pretty standard, there are backgrounds and sets for the characters to interact in.

Vyond is a cloud-based video presentation software.

The Vyond editor is called Vyond Studio. The tools are all hiding behind a menu of tabs so the editor is generally empty of clutter for easy editing. Tutorial bubbles help when you’re new so you can get used to all the tools and where they are.

The bottom of the screen is taken up by an extendable timeline editor that lists scenes, frames and all objects in order of animated settings.

There are undo and redo controls.

All the templates in Vyond are separated into three categories: contemporary, business-friendly and whiteboard animation. There are no complete templates to start with. 

When you choose one, the Vyond Studio opens up with one starting scene and all the continuing slides are created with different backgrounds, props and characters.

The main visuals in the Vyond Studio are the characters, props and backgrounds. The characters are highly customizable, to the point of face angle and animated actions. 

There are hundreds of props that can be arranged with the characters and backgrounds to create infinite combinations.

All the visuals can be animated with different movements and styles. All these animations are controlled in the bottom bar to a granular level. Additionally, you can add camera movements.

There are some customizable charts that can be added to the Vyond video presentation. Data can be entered into the editor and the charts can be color-coded. The available charts are pie charts, line charts and percentages. 

Vyond doesn’t offer a brand kit but colors can be customized with hex numbers . In high pricing tiers, companies can create a unique character and import fonts.

The best aspect of audio in Vyond is that voice overs are synced to the character’s mouth movements. Apart from that, you can add background music.

Who is Vyond For

The video presentations made with Vyond are good for people that need to create explainer videos in one place and like to have complete control over the animations. The learning curve for the animations can be a bit high so the people creating it need to know what they’re doing.

Wideo is an easy-to-use video presentation software. The tools are just what you need to create a video presentation fast. What’s surprising about Wideo is the granular control of the animations and transitions.

Wideo is a cloud-based video presentation software.

The Wideo editor interface is clean looking and with plenty of space to work in. The bottom section is the timeline editor which controls one scene at a time. There are options to preview one scene or the entire video.

On the left is the toolbar for adding elements to the scenes and the right bar is the controls for adding and organizing scenes.

Wideo has undo and redo controls.

Before starting a video presentation with Wideo you have the choice of around a hundred templates. Every template is available as landscape, square or vertical. You can still add more slides inside the template you chose.

The elements available in Wideo are backgrounds, images, videos, text effects and animated text scenes. 

There are no data visualization options in Wideo.

There aren’t any specific branding tools apart from being able to choose the right colors. You can have white label rights on the higher plans.

You can add music audio files from the Wideo library or upload your own.

The video length limit depends on the subscription plan, from one minute to ten minutes to 30 minutes.

Videos can be downloaded as horizontal, square, or vertical orientation as mp.4. They can also be uploaded to YouTube or shared to Twitter or Facebook. They can also be embedded.

There are three plans for Wideo. The subscriptions are as follows:

• Pro +: $79/month

Who is Wideo For

The Wideo video presentation software is great for content creators that need to make videos or social media posts, ads and simple explainers. 

Promo (formerly known as Slidely) is a cloud-based visual content creation program that offers video presentation slide designs. You can create videos with a horizontal format that can work as presentations.

They don’t call their creations video presentations but rather video ads and marketing videos . This makes sense since the available text area is limited and there are nonexistent data visualization capabilities. 

The Promo editing interface is simple and to the point. They’ve set up a simple video editor with clips and tracks to separately edit the text, visuals and audio The controls are simple but effective. 

Promo has over 2M pre-designed templates to choose from in a variety of categories. The first time you log in, an onboarding wizard takes you through the choices to show you the templates that suit your needs.

All the templates are easy to customize but have limited capabilities when it comes to text length. You can only add 100 characters to each text block. 

That being said, all the text options are nice but can’t be changed too much apart from the font and color and alignment.

The Promo video presentation maker has millions of stock images and video clips from Getty Images and Shutterstock. Upload your own images or short .mp4 videos. Uploaded videos can be trimmed to fit the overall composition.

There are no data visualization tools in Promo.

In paid plans, you can upload a watermark logo, use hex colors and upload fonts. There is no set Brand Kit, but in higher tiers, videos are white-labeled so that companies can apply their branding.

The program offers some song tracks. You can upload your own songs and recordings.

The longest video you can make with Promo is five minutes.

Videos in all pricing plans are downloaded as mp.4 in HD. Higher plans offer Full HD. The available sizes are square, horizontal, vertical and banner.

The Free plan only lets you create videos, not download any. To be able to actually download or share videos, you need to get a subscription.

The pricing options are as follows:

• Basic: $29/month
• Standard: $59/month
• Pro: $199/month

Who is Slidely For

Promo by Slidely is for content creators that need to make simple but eye-catching video presentations. These videos are best suited for social media. 

11 Premiere Rush

Premiere Rush is more of a video editing software than a video presentation software but it still works for the same purpose. Especially if the presentation needs detailed video editing. 

This software is part of the Adobe Cloud and is like an easy version of Adobe Premiere, one of the best video editors in the industry. You’ll need footage to create a video presentation with Premiere Rush. It can be images or video clips.

Premiere Rush has a desktop and mobile app, they communicate with each other. These are both downloadable programs.

The Premiere Rush interface is like a classic video editing software. The timeline and tracks are at the bottom of the screen, the media is organized on the left and the tools are on the right. All the video editing tools are on the bottom left of the menu. 

Premiere Rush might need a bit of getting used to and another tool to work with alongside it. Visme is a great option where you can create a perfect video presentation and then import it to Premiere Rush to make longer and more elaborate videos.

Both desktop and mobile versions have undo-redo controls.

There aren’t any templates to choose from when starting a project, but there are motion graphics title templates that can be added to a video in the editor. The same applies to creative transition templates between clips.

Apart from titles and transitions, the software has all the editing features you need for a professional video.

There are no data visualization integrations in Premiere Rush but you can import any media from another software as long as it’s an image or a video clip.

When it comes to branding, you can apply any font in your computer to the titles you use. But titles can’t be customized, they come as they are.

You can upload any audio or voice over you’d like to add. There are no available clips in the software.

There is no limit to how long your video can be, but keep in mind that the more resources you add to a timeline, the heavier its file will be.

Videos are downloaded as MP4. They can also be shared directly to Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Behance.

Premiere Rush and Premiere Pro are two tools within the Adobe Creative Cloud. You can get both for $20.99/month, or get access to the full creative suite for $54.99/month.

Who is Premiere Rush For

This video presentation software is good for content creators that want to create content on the go. Premiere Rush is not your regular presentation software so it’s more for a different kind of presentation. 

It’s more about the footage than the info, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t create presentations.

Q. What Is a Video Presentation?

A video presentation is a dynamic and engaging method of delivering information to an audience. It involves using moving visuals and sound to explain concepts, promote ideas or convey messages.

Unlike traditional text-based presentations, it uses graphics, animations, voiceover, music and video clips to create an interactive and engaging experience.

Q. How Do You Make a Presentation Video?

Making a video presentation involves several steps. Initially, you should clearly define your topic and objectives, then create a storyboard or script detailing what you plan to say and show. Use this as a guide when filming or recording the video.

Choose a reliable video editing software from the list we provided in this article. These tools will help combine your visuals, add audio or voiceover, include transition effects and arrange the video clips in a logical sequence.

Remember to review thoroughly and edit where necessary. Once you're satisfied with your video presentation, export it into an appropriate format that suits your distribution channel.

Q. Why Make a Video Presentation?

Video presentations are especially effective for capturing and retaining the audience's attention. They make complex topics more digestible by breaking information into chunks, accompanied by appropriate visuals.

Also, you can access them remotely, reaching a wider, potentially global audience. Video presentations can effectively communicate emotions, making your message more persuasive and impactful.

Q. What Should Be Included in a Video Presentation?

A successful video presentation should always be thoughtful, engaging and impactful. Here are some of the critical components of a good video presentation:

• Clear Objective: Outline your core message from the start. It sets the course of your entire presentation.
• Engaging Script: Craft a script that's clear, concise and appealing to your audience.
• Relevant Visuals: Use relatable images, graphics or videos to support your message and help your content attract viewers.
• Quality Audio: Ensure your audio (voiceover, dialogue, or music) is clear. Poor-quality audio can ruin the viewing experience.
• Smooth Transitions: Connections between segments or slides should be logical and seamless to avoid disrupting the flow.
• Call to Action: Include a call to action to guide your audience to their next step, like visiting your site, attending an event or buying a product.

9 Video Presentation Ideas to Keep Your Audience Awake

(Updated 07-05-2024)

The Video Advantage: Trends & Strategies for Content Marketers 2024

Whether you’re a seasoned marketer or just starting out, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. This ebook is designed to help you take advantage of the biggest content and video trends this year.

Let’s be honest: we’re all bored to death of dull, static PowerPoint presentations.

In fact, most people switch off just 10 minutes into a traditional presentation . Despite this, Microsoft PowerPoint is still the first port of call for 89% of people when they need to make a slideshow.

Next time you need to put together a presentation for your team, consider doing things differently. Video presentations are dynamic, engaging, and better at keeping your audience’s attention than a PowerPoint or Google Slides presentation .

Create a stunning video in minutes

Why should you use video presentations.

The numbers are clear: people like video . In fact, 78% of people report watching online video content every week, with 55% watching videos every day — so it’s a format we’re all used to. And according to Social Media Week, viewers retain 95% of a message when they learn it through a video, which makes it a great tool for business presentations.

Here are four more benefits of using video presentations over traditional ones .  

They’re easy to digest

The length of a traditional professional presentation depends on the presenter’s delivery and how long it takes an audience to read your PowerPoint slides. But since you’ll always know exactly how long a video presentation is, you can easily slot them into meetings without fear of running over. And your audience is much less likely to switch off if they’re told how long the video is before it starts .

Video lends itself very well to short-form content — and video presentations are no different. A short video can easily be sent out in an email to deliver a quick message. Learn more on video email marketing in this blog post.

What about industry-specific content?

You're right, industry-specific content is often complex for outsiders or too boring for insiders. Why not capture your audience with video? Just make sure that your content is relevant to your target group by educating, informing or entertaining them! You're working in healthcare industry? Perfect, find everything related to healthcare video marketing in this blog article.

They’re dynamic

A video presentation can (and should) include music, images, GIFs and dynamic transitions which help keep your audience engaged far more than a static PowerPoint. These visuals and moving graphics reinforce your message and drive home your audience’s understanding .

Curious about how to effortlessly create engaging videos? Look no further than PlayPlay's video presentation maker . Our tool empowers you to craft professional videos in no time.

They’re persuasive

Visual information is processed faster than text . So it makes sense to reinforce your message with visual cues such as arrows, icons, and fonts of different colors and sizes. With a video presentation, you can also use music to complement your message and help persuade your audience to take action.

They’re accessible (any time and anywhere)

In this new world, we’re all getting used to WFH and WFA (work-from-anywhere) policies. So it’s more important than ever to find new ways to transmit information to your staff, customers, and stakeholders . A video presentation is easier to share online than a traditional one, and can be watched multiple times — so there’s no need to worry if your team doesn't pick up everything the first time around. Discover how to make a presentation with our best steps and tips in this article.

9 video presentation ideas to keep your audience from snoozing.

Video presentations are versatile and can be used for a whole variety of purposes. While a PowerPoint presentation risks putting your audience to sleep before you get through the first three slides, a stand-out video will wake them up and drive your message home.

And, as an added bonus, if public speaking’s not your strong point, no worries. You can just hit the play button and let the video do the hard work.

Here are 9 video presentation ideas you could try for your business .

#1. Product launches

If you have a new product to show off to your customers, don’t put them off before they’ve even seen it with a slide deck that puts them to sleep.

Instead, bring your product to life and impress your viewers with an engaging video presentation that showcases its features and benefits and drums up the excitement it deserves. Discover all the tips on how to make engaging videos .

Take a look at this example from financial services company Acorns, announcing their new debit card. They do a great job of using interesting graphics to keep viewers engaged, and on-screen text to complement the audio narration and reinforce the message.

#2. Sales presentations

Sales teams want to get your prospective clients excited about your products. But let’s be honest: your run-of-the-mill business presentation full of dry data doesn’t make that easy. Even for the most rehearsed and confident presenters.

With a video presentation, however, you can incorporate infographics, music, and even humor — all while transmitting that all-important message . Since video presentations are easy to send online (or host on a dedicated landing page), you can even use them as part of your sales outreach efforts.

Account-based marketing with Terminus (in 3 minutes!) This really original sales presentation by SaaS marketing tool Terminus uses a combination of visual aids, animations, graphics, and plenty of humor to highlight their product’s features and real-life benefits for their target customer — in a way they’ll likely remember.

#3. Onboarding for new recruits

Onboarding presentations are an important tool for familiarizing new hires with the people and processes that make up your company . However, first days can be overwhelming and your new recruits may not necessarily retain everything the first time. You can make things easier on them by sending a link to an online presentation that they can easily refer back to when needed.

Welcome to the Future - Discover STATION F's New Onboarding Video

Video onboarding presentations also allow you to inject a little humor and give new recruits a taste of your company’s personality — like in this excellent example from Station F .

#4. Q&A sessions

Another great video presentation idea is to record Q&A sessions and edit them into a quick presentation . By displaying the questions as text, interspersed with short recorded answers, you can create a compelling video that’s naturally divided into digestible chunks.

Student Officer Q&A Highlights - Queen's Campus - Durham Student's Union In this video presentation by the Students’ Union at Durham University, the questions make for natural breaks in the video, and the addition of music helps to tie things together for the viewer.

#5. Explainers or tutorials

Honestly, how many times have you sat through a presentation on how to use a new tool or piece of software , and remembered practically none of it once you got back to your desk? With an explainer video presentation, you don’t need to worry, as you and your team will be able to look back over it as many times as you need to.

Trello | Take A Tour Of Trello Trello uses video storytelling to demonstrate how their tool could be used by a real business. Not only is this technique far more engaging than simply walking through the features, demonstrating it with a real use case gives viewers a much better idea of how they could apply it to their own workflow.

#6. Internal announcements

You can use video presentations to keep employees up-to-date on new hires, projects, acquisitions, or anything else they need to know about. Their format means they’re easy to distribute company-wide even in large organisations, without needing to gather everyone together.

NEAT Method Acquisition Announcement!

This presentation announcing NEAT’s acquisition by Whitmore could work as an internal or external announcement, and the combination of useful information and humor makes for a compelling video that keeps people engaged.

#7. Project highlights or upcoming projects

If you need to share the progress of a project with internal or external stakeholders , a video presentation is one of the most engaging ways to do it. You can share key statistics, facts and information without being too dry. Video presentations are also a great way to communicate visually about upcoming projects.  

Coca-Cola Content 2020 Initiative Strategy Video - Parts I & II

For example, take a look at the internal video marketing strategy of Coca-Cola. The cute, animated presentation design and the use of text to reinforce the voice-over narration work to keep the audience focused and engaged.

#8. Quarterly or annual business results

Just the words “quarterly business review” are enough to make all but the most seasoned business analysts start yawning. And long, number-heavy presentations are an easy way to guarantee a sleepy crowd during a keynote. With video, you can create a dynamic presentation that highlights those key statistics, interviews and quotes through animation, images and videos to keep your audience engaged (and awake).

Shell's first quarter 2021 results presentation | Investor Relations In this video, Shell shares their first quarter 2021 results with a combination of live narration, visual displays of data such as diagrams and charts, and brand-consistent graphics.

#9. Event promotions

Got an upcoming event and want to get the word out ? An event video presentation is easy to send out online, and lets you share key details about the event in a digestible format.

The World's Largest Online Advertising Event | Ad World 2020

This promotional video for Ad World’s 2020 conference uses music and fast, eye-catching graphics to grab its audience’s attention, and presents key details about the event in a way that drums up anticipation. You want to create as much buzz as possible around your next event? Test viral video marketing !

Next time you need to deliver a presentation, consider ditching the boring PowerPoint and creating a dynamic, engaging, and interactive video presentation instead — your team will thank you.

And creating effective presentations that engage your audience doesn’t have to be complicated — with the right tools. With PlayPlay ’s intuitive video creation platform, you can create your own professional-quality video presentations in no time, with no editing expertise needed.

Making a video presentation: FAQs

Your answers to the most frequently asked questions about making a video presentation.

How do I make a video presentation for free?

It’s hard to make a video presentation for free, because free video makers have limited features that usually aren’t geared toward professional presentations. Your best bet is making a presentation during a free trial with a leading video presentation maker. Most people quickly realize purchasing a subscription is worth the money.

How do I make a video out of a presentation?

Not all online video makers are geared toward making a video out of a presentation, so it’s important to use one that focuses on making videos for a professional setting. Look for features like: templates and scenes geared toward the business world; video branding capabilities; an easy-to-use workflow.

How do I make a narration video presentation?

There are three ways to make a narration video presentation.

• Record narration separately and sync it to your presentation.
• Upload first-person video footage. Merge it with your presentation.
• Use a video presentation maker with in-app voice-over and recording features. (This is the easiest way to make a narration video presentation.)

How do I make an animated presentation?

Making an animated presentation from scratch is difficult unless you have advanced skills. Your best bet is to find a video presentation maker with a library of animations you can add to your presentation. Look for an online video maker that offers unique animations geared toward a professional setting.

“Biteable gives us the speed and quality to create videos that allows our 3-person team to play at the level of a 60-person team.”

4 must-have tips for making video presentations

Creating a video presentation is easy with Biteable. And it’s even easier if you follow these best practices.

Have a goal in mind

Every great video presentation starts with a goal. What are you trying to accomplish? Maybe you want to share a new idea with your colleagues. Maybe you want to report on important company metrics. Or maybe you want to do something else entirely.

It’s incredibly difficult to make a video presentation that moves the needle until you define exactly what your presentation aims to achieve. Figure that part out and the rest becomes much easier.

Choose a proven template

Now that you know what your presentation aims to achieve you can pick a template that fits. You can create your video presentation from scratch, but using a template as a starting point gives you guide rails for tempo and pacing, plus a proven structure designed by pros.

Biteable video presentation maker has plenty of template options geared toward a professional setting, plus hundreds of extra video scenes and animations to build out your video presentation as much or as little as you like.

Use animations that underscore your message

One of the biggest advantages of video presentations over something static like a PowerPoint is the presence of motion. Without even realizing it, your audience will remember the information better simply because video is a multimedia experience that combines movement, sound, and visuals. To make the most impact, choose your animations wisely and use movement in a way that underscores your key points.

Are you presenting on the massive growth your marketing team achieved? Use a graph showing upward movement to drive the point home. Do you have one key point you’re trying to make? Use animation to circle your text or arrows that point at your most important information.

(All of this is easy to do with the video scenes available in Biteable.)

Keep it short and sweet

The length of your video presentation matters. Too short and you won’t be able to convey enough information. Too long and your audience will tune out.

There’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to video presentation length. But in general, 1-2 minutes is the sweet spot for making a video presentation that holds attention while still getting all the important information across.

You’d be surprised how many details you can share in this amount of time. A 15-minute live presentation can easily be condensed into one or two minutes if you hone your message to focus on the key details.

Brand your video

This is probably one of the most important — and most overlooked — parts of creating a successful video presentation. You’d never create a PowerPoint with erratic, off-brand colors. Making a video presentation is no different.

It’s a subtle change, but it gives off a big signal that you are polished and professional, and that you and your video presentation mean business.

Take advantage of the unique branding feature in the Biteable video presentation maker to easily apply your colors and logo to your entire presentation.

Once the game ended, the members of Team USA men’s basketball received their gold medals in what had to be an incredibly emotional moment for them. You can watch the video here , via NBC Sports.

James now has three Olympic gold medals, to go along with a bronze medal he earned in 2004. Davis, meanwhile, now has two Olympic gold medals of his own.

How did Raygun qualify for the Olympics? Is she really the best Australia has to offer?

By Mawunyo Gbogbo

ABC Entertainment

Topic: Olympic Games

Rachael "Raygun" Gunn did not score a single point at the Paris Olympics. ( Getty Images: Elsa )

Since Australian breaker Rachael "Raygun" Gunn failed to score a single point in any of her Olympic bouts, many have asked how she qualified for the Games.

Fellow breaker and anthropologist Lucas Marie says she won her qualification "fair and square" last year, but African American man Malik Dixon has criticised the Olympic body for letting her in.

What's next?

Breaking will not be an event at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games — a decision made before Raygun's performance.

The 2024 Paris Olympics marked breaking's debut as a sport at the global event, with 36-year-old lecturer and breaker Rachael "Raygun" Gunn representing Australia for the first time.

Having failed to win a single point in any of her Olympic bouts, Raygun quickly became a viral sensation.

The question on many people's minds now is: How did she even qualify?

Lucas Marie is a breaker who has competed, performed, taught and judged breaking competitions over the past 25 years. He's also an anthropologist who recently co-authored an article with Gunn.

He says the answer to that question is simple.

Lucas Marie recently co-authored an article with Raygun. ( Supplied )

"There was an Oceania qualifier in which any B-boy or B-girl from Australia [or] New Zealand could enter, and that was in Sydney in October 2023," he told ABC News.

"And leading up to that, there were a lot of other events in which breakers were competing.

"She won those battles fair and square and won the qualification in Sydney.

"And it wasn't really a surprise to anyone. 

"She's been fairly consistent, winning or coming second or third at a lot of breaking events in Australia for the last five to 10 years."

Marie said there was nothing out of the ordinary about Raygun's performance.

"It's not like gymnastics where there's this kind of agreed-upon standard," he said.

"It's always had a rawness to it. It's always had an improvisational kind of quality. And I think looking different and trying different stuff has always been celebrated.

"And I think Raygun, in a way, was just expressing a core kind of hip hop trait in a way a lot of breakers do."

He described her efforts as bold.

"I thought — and this is how I judge a lot of breaking events — I thought, 'Oh, she's making some really interesting choices to mimic Australian animals.' And you can kind of see the choices that she's making in the moment."

Is she the best Australia has to offer?

Team Australia chef de mission Anna Meares insisted after Raygun's performance that she was the best breaker the country had to offer. But is this true?

"It's sometimes just who's performing better on the day," Marie said.

"And at the qualification event in which she won, and other events in which she's won, she performed better on that day and won the ticket.

"That doesn't mean she's the best. It doesn't really work like that.

"I think she's a great breaker. She won the qualification. She's won other events in the past, and she was a good representative for Australia at that competition."

Asked whether there were B-girls in Perth, regional Victoria or rural Brisbane who might have qualified but could not afford to travel to Sydney for the tryouts, Marie agreed this was possible.

"Of course, there's breakers all over the country that maybe should have been in that event, but they weren't."

Breaking will not carry over to the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, a decision made before Raygun's battle.

Marie described this as sad.

"Maybe, based on the ratings, they'll reassess that and maybe allocate some medals to breaking," he said.

"I really hope that's the case, and I hope that for other breakers who want to compete in it as a dance sport."

Marie said that at the end of the day people should remember they were dealing with a human.

"As a friend of Rachael's, there's a human being who's getting a lot of negative attention," he said.

"I think people kind of miss that sometimes and forget the human aspect of all this."

'Toying with the culture'

Malik Dixon is an African American who has been living in Australia for more than a decade and is a Sydney University graduate.

He said Raygun made a total "mockery" out of breaking at the Olympics.

"She was dressed like a member of the cricket team or an Australian PE teacher, and from that point it just seemed like satire," Mr Dixon told ABC News.

"It just looked like somebody who was toying with the culture and didn't know how culturally significant it was being the first time in the Olympics and just how important it was to people who really cherish hip hop and one of the elements of hip hop, which is breakdancing.

"It made me think, was Borat her breakdancing coach?"

Mr Dixon said too many people felt entitled to African American culture.

"The African American space has been one where we've shared our community so much and without any restraints, any barriers, roadblocks, obstacles, any gatekeepers, that essentially what should have been African American cultural capital is just shared, which is cool," he said. 

"We like to share, right? 

"We shared 400 years of free labour.

"To see Rachael in her attempt to be a part of the culture just be grossly underwhelming made it seem like she didn't take it seriously."

Olympics body criticised for Raygun qualification

Mr Dixon criticised the body that qualified Raygun, saying she devalued breaking with her performance.

"Whatever governing body nominated her as Australia's entrant into the Olympics either did not understand the assignment or didn't really believe in the integrity or significance of breakdancing, because if they did they would just say, rather than disrespect the culture, we're just not ready to send an applicant this year."

He said Raygun was extremely audacious and not self-aware.

"You've got to know your role, know your position, know your limitation," he said. 

"And I think that part of privilege is saying that there are no limits to what I can do. 

"Part of privilege is having the authority to say that there are no limits and there are no requirements, there are no prerequisites to what I can do."

Raygun's degrees do not hold much water with Mr Dixon.

"Due to consumerism, this Foundational Black American product, which is hip hop, is global," he said.

"And even people who have no connection to any African Americans or any local or regional things that come out in these songs, they have become a part of the whole experience now.

"If I came in and said that I was an authority on Greek music and I was going against the grain of what the mainstream Greek musicians thought, or the school of thought, and I've said that I was the authority, people would check me on that.

"If I had a PhD in sprinting, does that qualify me to go against Noah Lyles? No, it doesn't."

He also doubts Raygun was the best breaker Australia had to offer.

"[There's] got to be somebody out here that's better than that! The kangaroo! The sprinkler! She did the sprinkler out there, man!" he said.

Should everybody just lighten up?

Should we lighten up? Mr Dixon does not believe so.

"Larrikinism is used as a get-out-of-jail-free card and to escape responsibility of how words or actions impact a hurt person," he said.

"But when the majority culture is offended, there's no playing around.

"This is a part of my culture, and I don't think Australians are in a place to tell me how I should feel about breakdancing being mocked on an international stage.

"People who don't have any or limited access to black people or hip hop culture now may see Rachael and her buffoonery as a representation of hip hop and black culture.

"People who were already side-eyeing breakdancing as an Olympic sport, Rachael Gunn has put the nail in that coffin.

"This might be the most viral clip of the whole Olympics. From a comedy standpoint, she's got it, but from an Olympics perspective, its regressive."
