Live Captioning for Powerful PowerPoint Presentations

PowerPoint can be a powerful tool and enhance your presentation. However, if you want to persuade your audience and/or keep their attention, then you need to captivate them with live captioning. 

Thanks to the PowerPoint presentation tool, anyone can create high quality, attractive slides whenever and wherever they want, they just need a computer. However, the key to an effective PowerPoint presentation is the message delivered by the presenter.

When your message and presentation skills can’t keep your audience engaged and attentive, you don’t have much chance of convincing them to buy, invest or take action. Let’s face it, no one is going to be impressed that you’re using PowerPoint, they actually expect it.

If you really want to engage your audience and enhance your message, you need to display your text the way your audience wants to receive it – visually.

PowerPoint has become the corporate industry standard and is still very significant in the business world today. In fact, this year marks Microsoft PowerPoint’s 30^th birthday and it is still the most popular presentation tool used globally.

PowerPoint’s charts and graphs make it easy for consultants, sales executives and regular Joe’s like you and me to represent numerical data in a visually appealing, easy-to-understand way.

The problem comes in when people make bad presentations, for example, slides with lots of bland text with a scattering of bullet points. A great slide should have short and concise content, which is straightforward and memorable.

Now, you might be wondering how you can possibly condense a huge amount of information into a punchy PowerPoint. We have the secret. Well, it’s not really a secret, but we have what you’ve been looking for.

Imagine having the ability to display live captioning on screen, alongside your PowerPoint slides, as you’re presenting them. I’m talking about instant subtitling for your videos and presentations.

121 Captions uses 1Fuzion to enable your audience to see both live captioning and your concise, image-rich content, including videos. Meaning, while you are presenting your PowerPoint, the words you are speaking are simultaneously being displayed on screen!

1Fuzion is a revolutionary technology developed by 1CapApp and allows for captions to be shown on the same screen as the speaker’s presentations. What’s even better is it can also be viewed on an audience member’s cell phone, computer, tablet or iPad. So, if there are people wanting to attend your presentation but cannot physically be there, they can still take part.

You can access 1Fuzion by simply downloading the app to the device of your choice, for example, your laptop if you’re the presenter, and log in with your allocated session number, then select where and how you want your captions to be displayed.

You can place the captions anywhere on your screen and change the colour, style and size of your font to suit your personal preferences.

1Fuzion works with our team of highly experienced stenographers who can type up to 350 words per minute, so your audience won’t miss a beat. Other benefits include:

• A better viewing experience for your hard of hearing and deaf attendees.
• Uplifts your message and enforces its impact.
• Interactive content will keep viewers engaged for longer.
• You won’t be staring at the top of people’s heads as they are trying to scribble down notes.
• Great if you’re speaking to a global audience, because our captioning can be done in multiple languages, including:

Bonus: We can also caption your YouTube videos and Webex calls, send Tweets and use the chat box with viewers.

Don’t be afraid that your message will seem repetitive. Using live captioning will help your audience understand what you are trying to convey, they’ll get the point, and those that are hard of hearing will have the same opportunity to gain access to the information presented as their hearing peers.
