Presentation Guidelines & Info

What should you present?

Anything you want to.

The only restriction is the number of images (20) – and the time you have for each slide (20 seconds each). So you are limited to 6 minutes 40 seconds.

But beyond that there aren’t that many restrictions. No subject is off limits, all points of view allowed, It will be you, your subject, and the audience. So, you can come to vent, promote, posture, or proselytize.

Remember, PK is all about being creative – how you show something is as important as in what you show. What you say/do is as much a part of the show as the images. (Some of the things allowed include… talking, singing, hopping around on one leg, remaining silent, looking kinda intense, letting your puppet do the talking… not that we expect you to do all/any of that. Just reminding you that these options are out there…)
