Working for Another Designer
Episode #154, We have had conversations focused on client management, hiring designers, and being the best presentation designer employee. But we have not talked about working for another designer. Because it is one thing if the person approving and paying for your work is a non-designer client, but when that person is another designer things can be different. That's what we talk about today—what it's like working for and answering to another designer. Full Episode Show Notes https://thepresentationpodcast.com/2022/e154 Show Suggestions?

Is Accessibility Accessible?
Episode 152 - One definition of accessibility is "…making information, activities, and/or environments sensible, meaningful, and usable for as many people as possible.". For us in the presentation world, accessibility is a consideration for slide design. And slide design can address accessibility categories of contrast, font size, captioning, screen reader setup, alt text, and much more. But the real question is, are there tools within PowerPoint to enable presentation designers to make a presentation accessible? This episode of The Presentation Podcast we are joined by Stephy Hogan a great conversation about presentation design with accessibility considerations.

Deposits, Terms, and $ (Take II)
Episode #49 - This episode has a backstory. As projects continue to spin up with wonderful client requests, internally at TLC Creative Services, we have been revisiting our rate sheet, project timelines and project terms. The Presentation Podcast's focus on the business of presentation design is a great resource, that I found myself (Troy Chollar) using. This episode we revisit a conversation Sandy, Nolan and myself had back in 2017 were we discuss presentation project Deposits, Terms and Rates. Virtually every part of the conversation is relevant today, so much so that it is worth bringing back to the surface episode 28 and hopefully encouraging you to evaluate your project options and assuring things are advantageous for both sides of the project; the designer and recipient.
