DownloadA slide with a video background makes a perfect opening. Include it in your presentation to surprise your audience, catch and retain their full attention in the first seconds and set the right mood for your story.
A video background-supported slide is also a clever way to entertain stakeholders during breaks. Calming, meditational video backgrounds with beautiful imagery of nature, for example, will help everybody to "recharge their batteries" and prepare for the rest of the meeting or event.
