Bold New Features Add Visual Depth and Help Presenters Tell Powerful Stories
Prezi, the zooming presentation software that has liberated the world from boring, static presentations, announced the launch of 3D and Fade-in Animation. 3D backgrounds enable presenters to wow an audience with instant impact and visual depth. Fade-in Animation is a compelling storytelling tool used for selectively sequencing information to add dramatic tension. Text, graphics, or other media objects can be revealed on cue to reinforce specific presentations points. Together, these visual effects help people share big ideas and tell powerful stories.
“To think big and tell inspiring stories you need to have space to develop and share your ideas,” said Peter Arvai, Prezi CEO. “Now, with a simple click you can create zooming presentations in 3D — a true space for your ideas, and a memorable journey for your audience.”
Designed by architect and visual artist Adam Somlai-Fischer, Prezi is pushing the boundaries of the traditional presentation. Instead of disjointed slides, Prezi is an open presentation canvas that enables the presenter to explore, develop, and tell a story in a way that resonates with audiences. Prezi’s use of the z axis allows the presenter to use spatial relationships that help convey meaning and help audiences better comprehend and remember presentation content. Now, Prezi is taking presentations to a new dimension, bringing the power of 3D design and technology to the masses. The visual power of 3D instantly captures the audience’s attention while Fade-in Animation further enhances the spatial understanding and results in a more memorable experience overall.
“This is 3D made simple. Now Prezi users can create their own 3D backgrounds with a click of a button, or choose from carefully designed and inspiring 3D templates,” said Adam Somlai-Fischer, Prezi co-founder.
Edie Fraser, CEO of STEM Connector (an advocacy group for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics education), tapped the power of 3D and Fade-in Animation for the US News & World Report STEM Summit 2012. “The new 3D and Fade-in Animation features take Prezi’s visual impact to a whole new level. The audience at The STEM Summit was immediately captivated. Prezi helped us light a spark and electrify the conference.”
