The supportive media (p2) is everything that adds to the story (p1) in its delivery (p3) whether as a presentation or visual aids. If you have visited the site looking for tips on using powerpoint, you will be disappointed.

It is the least important part of a presentation and some presentations may even be better without slides! Most importantly, the .ppt file is not your presentation.

Cornerstone posts include.
