Depth of information & discussion

Each slide has a notes page attached to it which goes into a lot more details about travelling to Western Australia. This is designed so the presenter can give more detailed information on Western Australia without putting too much information on the visual slides.

Quality of the conceptual underpinnings

I feel that I grasped the conceptual underpinnings of the presentation by selecting a variety of images that represent Western Australia. I also have chosen not to include too much animation in a bid to keep the viewer interested. My target Audience was the first time visitor to Western Australia and I feel that after viewing this report any prospective tourist would have basic information to start to plan a holiday.
