CG PPT study plan

Analyze three sample slide decks to identify at least five visual hierarchy techniques (contrast, size, spacing, alignment, color) used in each.

Draft an audience analysis checklist covering demographics, prior knowledge, goals, and context for a presentation scenario.

Redesign one weak slide using at least three hierarchy principles, and annotate the changes.

Write a one-paragraph rationale linking audience analysis findings to design choices.

Build a custom master slide with placeholder types, theme colors, and fonts that match a brand style guide.

Create two slide layouts (title and content) derived from the master, and apply them to a five-slide deck.

Set up typography rules (heading/body font sizes, line spacing, contrast) and verify they render consistently across layouts.

Test theme changes (color and font variants) and document how they propagate to all slides.

Compress and crop five images to appropriate resolution and aspect ratio for slide use without visible distortion.

Insert and format a short audio or video clip with playback settings (start mode, trimming) and captions if applicable.

Apply alt text to every image and chart in a practice deck.

Arrange text and graphics using a grid to maintain alignment and reading order.

Choose appropriate chart types (bar, line, pie, scatter) for four different data stories and justify each choice.

Build a chart from a data table, format axes, labels, and legends for clarity, and remove non-data ink.

Create a table with consistent styling, header emphasis, and readable number formatting.

Add a data callout or annotation that highlights the key insight without clutter.

Apply transitions consistently across a deck (e.g., same transition for section breaks) and avoid distracting effects.

Build a click-triggered animation sequence that reveals content in logical order.

Create an interactive element such as hyperlinked navigation or a trigger-based quiz slide.

Set animation timing and duration to support pacing, and test in slideshow mode.

Export a deck to PDF and verify that fonts, images, and hyperlinks are preserved.

Export to video or image sequence and compare file size and quality trade-offs.

Run an accessibility checker and fix at least five flagged issues (contrast, alt text, reading order).

Create a pre-delivery QA checklist covering spelling, consistency, slide numbers, and file naming.

Audit an existing 10-slide deck against a consistency rubric (fonts, colors, spacing, terminology).

Revise the deck to fix at least ten consistency issues and document each change.

Rehearse a 5-minute delivery with speaker notes and timing, then adjust slide content for pacing.

Collect peer feedback on clarity and audience fit, and incorporate at least two suggestions.

Assemble a capstone 12-slide deck that integrates design hierarchy, data visualization, and interactivity.

Apply a custom master and theme consistently, and verify accessibility compliance.

Export the capstone to PDF and video, and confirm playback and link integrity.

Complete a timed 60-question practice exam and review every incorrect answer with domain references.
