Tips:
- Spell out acronyms with hyphens (e.g., AI becomes “aye-eye”).
- If a word has an unusual pronunciation, consider rephrasing or substituting it with a synonym or at minimum try rearranging the words.
- For pauses, use 2-3 commas (e.g., “Hello everyone ,,, my name is Howard”), or repeat the image on another slide with more text.
- Avoid empty slides (ensure every slide has speaker notes).
- Keep the browser open during video rendering.
- Limit presentations to 25 ~ 50 slides to speed up rendering.
