PRESENTER
INSTRUCTIONS
Presentations
are 25 minutes including Q&A.
Equipment
Each
session room will be equipped with a lectern, data projector (for use with
a laptop computer eg PowerPoint or PDF presentation) and an IBM compatible
laptop. We will supply the computer pre-loaded with MS Office and Acrobat.
Please advise the Conference Secretariat
before Monday 27 October 2008 if you require any additional audiovisual
aides and equipment eg MAC, video, DVD (the provision of additional
equipment is at the discretion of the Organising Committee).
Room
Set up
Each
session room will be set up theatre style with a head table where
appropriate.
Bringing
Your Presentation To The Venue
When
you arrive at Adelaide Convention Centre, check in at the Registration
Desk. Staff will direct you to the Speakers Support Centre.
If
you are using PowerPoint, laptops will be provided by the organisers in
each session room. There will be no provision for presenters to connect
their own laptop. This will ensure the optimum presentation environment.
Your
presentation must be given to the Speakers Support Centre Technician on a
CD or USB storage device. Alternatively, you can bring your own laptop
from which your presentation can be extracted and directly transferred to
the network server. Supported file format is Microsoft PowerPoint
2007 or below, for IBM/PC compatible machines. Special arrangements need
to be made for Apple Mac or other specialist software support. You
will be asked to verify your presentation on a local computer. The
presentation will be then transferred. The transfer might take a little
while - please allow this time, plus a few more minutes to verify your
presentation.
Also,
when saving your presentation ready for this conference, please save any
non true-type fonts into the presentation. For all true-type fonts, this
process is not required. Note PowerPoint will not support all types of
true type fonts. If you are using an uncommon font type it is recommended
you save the font style separately with the presentation and bring it to
the Speakers Support Centre.
How
do we get the presentation on-screen with you in control?
The
computer in the room in which you are presenting will access the
presentation. In the larger session rooms, this computer will be under the
control of a Technical Operator who will assist you. The lectern will be
equipped with a simple remote with forward and reverse buttons, which will
have the same effect as the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard.
In smaller rooms where no operator will be present, the laptop will be
located next to the lectern for presenters to operate themselves. The
presentation will be located on the desktop. Please DO NOT take your
presentation disk directly to the venue room as this can severely disrupt
the running of the conference.
