I'm really excited about this. I have been given the chance to work on a project, mainly handling the projection.
I will be able to use a digital cinema projector, and I have a carte blanche for extra things I may need (cables, various DVI-adapters, stock images, etc.).
My main goal is to make Keynote shine. I want people to be stunned when they see the presentation, and ask how the hell they did that in Powerpoint.
The event is a circular 30-minute program, and it fits within the "Night of the open churches" project in Bruges. I am working on the youth segment, in a very modern church (Apple store-like interior, modern art, interactive elements, and of course a huge screen with digital projector)
The presentation will mainly consist of text (poetry, stories) and lyrics being shown, with background images, and some movies.
Some questions:
-what will I need for showing a 1920x1080 keynote? (cable-wise) I am using my macbook.
-How do I best animate a narrated text, considering it will be a poetic translation of bible text?
-How would you take a sentence and then emphasis one word of it, fading out the rest of the text, and making the word larger. (I am using keynote from iWork 06)
-What transitions would be subtle enough for the evening yet enough to make people see it's not a standard powerpoint job?
-Any other tips on how to make this presentation perfect?
