The supportive media (p2) is everything that adds to the story (p1) in its delivery (p3) whether as a presentation or visual aids. It should illustrate the message, not seek to annotate it. If you have visited the site looking for tips on using powerpoint, you will be disappointed. The discussion is around design concepts, use of text in slides, images and data slides used to illustrate and support the message. It is the least important part of a presentation. Some presentations may even be better without slides! Most importantly, the .ppt file is not your presentation.

the supportive media of a presentation should illustrate the message, not attempt to annotate it.
