Getting Bad Ideas Out Of The Way With Keynote
Travis IsaacsFriday 20 April, 14:00 - 17:30, Room: Green 1
Ready to leave the boring world of wireframes and design documentation behind?
Create clickable, high-fidelity prototypes for web, desktop, or mobile apps using Keynote in less time than it takes to create a just a wireframe in your old wireframing tool. All without any coding or learning a complex and expensive new tool.
Participants will learn first-hand why Keynote is so effective at exploring and communicating the formative details of design, experience, and interactions.
Additional topics include:
- Setting up the optimal Keynote prototyping workflow
- Saving time with reusable interface components
- Improving upon your existing design process with Keynote
- Overlooked Keynote secrets and tips
Participants should have Keynote '09 installed on their Mac. iPad and PowerPoint users are welcome, however this workshop specifically focuses on Keynote for Mac.
This hands-on prototyping workshop includes a complimentary copy of Keynote Kung-Fu.
