      <title>PLA PowerPoint Master Template</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/pla_powerpoint_master_template</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are a business and technology consulting company

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

A Master Powerpoint Template / Theme to be used in all sales and educational presentations

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Executives and Technologies

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

The ppt should be in harmony with our web site design (www.projectleadership.net); i&apos;ve attached our current template, which is quite plaing.  We definitely want a more interesting, though not distracting, background so that the reflection of the screen shot images is more pronounced. 

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

More than one example of bullted text that goes beyond the simple text produced by powerpoints standard text box. </description>

      <title>PowerPoint Template for The Wine Forum</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/powerpoint_template_for_the_wine_forum</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:


TheWineForum.org is a recently formalized not-for-profit organization of senior level business executives, politicians, civil society leaders, and academics devoted to creating great wine experiences in order to raise funds, grow awareness and direct resources towards deserving charitable causes.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

A basic powerpoint template consistent with our web site (www.thewineforum.org) and logo and business card (attached).  Primary font should be trajan pro
Logo color is cmyk 28, 100, 93, 35

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Our members are:
-CEOs (of leading Developed and Emerging Market companies)
-Public Figures (MPs and politicians from Developed and Emerging countries)
-Civil Society Leaders (Heads of NGOs and multilateral organizations)
-Academic Leaders (Thought leaders from top academic institutions)
-Media Leaders (Editors and noted columnists from primary media channels)

About 1/3 are from North America, 1/3 from Europe and 1/3 from other parts of the world (esp India and China).

The wineries with whom we work are only the very best from all of the world&apos;s top wine regions.

We also deal with top hotels (where we occasionally host events), wine critics, restaurants, etc.

Our audience (members, wineries and charities) should view our organization as:
- professional
- serious but fun
- not commercially driven -- its about passion for wine not making money -- however is makes good business sense for the wineries to develop stronger, more direct ties to our members (because they buy a lot of wine)
- exclusive but not snobby
- concerned with giving back -- most events also feature a charitable cause to which members make donations
- connected both to the history and tradition of wine making as well as the modern, high-tech business world from which many of our members come

      <title>Simple graphics for powerpoint for a somewhat complex process</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/simple_graphics_for_powerpoint_for_a_somewhat_complex_process</link>
      <description>OVAB is a non for profit trade assocation for digital and video place based advertising networks.  We promote our membership to the advertising and marketing community at large.  visit www.ovab.org for our full site (which might need an overhaul, but that&apos;s a different project).

here are some basic definitions to know:

place-based video/digital networks:  companies that operate screens that display programming and advertising inside public venues (like shopping malls, taxi cabs, retail stores, elevators, etc.) with the purpose of entertaining and informing that venue&apos;s visitors.

gross venue traffic:  the total number of people visiting a venue  

present in the zone:  the number of people close to the networks&apos; screens (this will be a fraction of the gross venue traffic)

notice: the number of people who are looking at the network&apos;s screens (this will be a fraction of the present in the zone)

dwell time:  the average amount of time people are present in the zone (this is expressed as a unit of time)

Ad rotation duration:  the number of ads displaying on the networks screens.

Audience:  the number of people in the zone, who notice the screens  (This is the final, important concept...the idea is that the &quot;audience&quot; is smaller but more valuable than the first one listed &quot;gross venue traffic&quot;.)

We need a slide(s) to show this progression/relationship very cleanly and simply. It could include animation, but would need to allow to be printed without losing the concept of the animation.  It needs to be a size that can be easily emailed and used for WebEx presentations.  

As for colors, etc.  that is open to the designer&apos;s choice at this point.

What absolutely CANNOT be in the design:  huge files...it&apos;s very important this is as &quot;electronically portable&quot; as possible.

And last, we do have a pretty tight time frame, but hopefully it&apos;s a pretty clear project.

      <title>PPT Presentation Template</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/ppt_presentation_template</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

This project is for Varick Media Management (www.varickmm.com).  The company helps both advertising agencies and brands directly purchase media and audiences much more efficiently and effectively using rigorous bid management and optimization algorithms.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

What we need is a PowerPoint template that we can use for our corporate material and sales presentations.  The template should be impactful but simple and ideally, a neutral (or white) background color.  If people print out the PPT, it should read clearly.

The PPT will be edited internally with for it&apos;s content, but the background imagery and look/feel should remain consistent and that is what you are designing.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

The target audience are media buyers and clients direct (brands).  They should think that we are sophisticated and proper, but at the same time, fun and innovative.  Just like our logo (Varick Media Management), the circles represent data and that&apos;s what our company is all about.

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

Our logo for Varick Media Management (attached)
Our logo for Audience Driven Media (attached)

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

We want to see the incorporation of audience driven media logo into the design and/or the varick media management logo.

the template should be sophisticated and show that we&apos;re an innovative advertising &amp; technology company.</description>

      <title>Stock Selection Process for a Portformula Investment Strategy</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/stock_selection_process_for_a_portformula_investment_strategy</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We would like to have a small presentation built for how the stock selection process works for our propriety Money Management Investment Strategy called Portformulas.  Portformulas is the name of the company and is also the product which uses a combination of various specific stock selection criteria (coined as a Formulaic Investment Strategy) to select stocks to buy and sell for our clients each and every month.  This methodology takes the human emotion and all that is associated with that to have a formula (computer generated) select what stocks should be purchased and sold each and every month.  We currently have 8 different strategies or Portformulas in which a very specific group of criteria associated with each strategy to start with the complete universe of stocks on the NYSE, NASDAQ and AMEX (excluding all Over The Counter stocks or OTC stocks) and start to apply a series of criteria to get a group of stocks ranging in numbers from 0 - 120 stocks.  We also have an add on feature called RAM which is an acronym for (Resession and Market Allocation Management) which can be applied to any strategy to see if certain economic factors (such as the Moodys Risk of Recession) in the economy to say if you should even be in the market or if you should be in a more sable or less risky investment such as a money market account or a Bond ETF.  When you look at the submitted sample you will get a better idea of what I am looking for.  This is the basic process of selection - but now I just want to take it to the next level and have a really nice presentation build with animations for a potential client to view how this selection process works.  The unique thing about this strategy is because it is a specific group of formulas it can be back tested many years to simulate what the hypothetical returns would have been.  So even though this company is only 2.5 years old we can go back as far as 2001 in some strategies to see what the results would have been - big advantage to see what might have been.  

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

A power point presentation that will show a step by step series of animations to show how the basic process works.  There is a basic one submitted with this request to give an idea of what is needed - but I want a much better quality of work with cool graphics and animations.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Clients looking to invest anywhere from the min of $35,000 to any limit of money into this Investment Strategy with our Money Management Company of Portformulas.  We have a core group of about 40 financial professionals that are licensed to sell this very unique and proprietary product. 

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

Look at our website for basic colors and look.  www.portformulas.com - colors are also attached as other artwork used with this company.

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

Our Logo, look and overall theme with our existing colors and look.  There is power point slide included in this file that has two needed disclaimers (legalese if you will) for this presentation.  We typically put them at the bottom page of the slide for financial compliance.  The Important Note disclaimer will only have to be used when we start or introduce RAM into the presentation.  So please keep this in mind.  I have also include an entire presentation about Portformulas and how it works if a better understanding is needed on clarity of how it works (also an audio version if you prefer to listen to instead of read it)</description>

      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

VCE Capital Partners LLC is a Southeast-based venture capital firm that invests opportunistically. We provide equity capital to early and expansion stage companies with proprietary technology platforms or unique products addressing large markets. The partners of VCE Capital Partners manage two investment funds: Louisiana Ventures, LP and TVP, LP (Themelios Venture Partners).

Louisiana Ventures, LP is focused on venture capital and private equity opportunities. Louisiana Ventures, LP is a generalist fund as far as industry preference, and invests opportunistically in high growth equity opportunities. In contrast, TVP, LP is focused on life science opportunities from the Pennington Biomedical Research Center, the world’s leader in diabetes, nutrition and obesity research.

TVP will also invest in companies outside of the Pennington Center that run clinical trials or conduct research collaborations with the Center, thus, diversifying TVP’s investment mix.

Our group will also invest in traditional private equity and expansion growth deals nationwide. We have offices in Shreveport, Louisiana, New York, New Orleans and venture partners in Baton Rouge. Our group is comprised of professionals that are industry veterans with extensive experience as operational managers, securities attorneys and venture capitalists.

See www.vcecapital.com

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

Redesigned logo and name change FROM VCE Capital TO something with our names in it or something to do with venture capital investing.  Our job is simple, turn capital entrusted to us into more capital within the shortest timeframe.  We do this by starting and investing in companies.

Consider our job of capital management similar to The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30; Luke 19:12-28)

Or, surprise us..

Institutional Investors, Entrepreneurs

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We&apos;ve used CrowdSpring before and love it. This time, we need to load up YouTube videos on our website using our Powerpoint slides, telling a story for each of our different products or seminars. We need a PowerPoint deck that really pops. At the moment, it&apos;s boring. Check it out at the links I&apos;ve added. We&apos;ll worry about the content, but we need a front page that we can modify for titles etc, mid slides that contain our main messages, transition slides that can break up or introduce a new message on each deck, plus a finish slide. 

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Human Resource directors and managers in mid-to-large organisations in public and private sectors, usually white-to-gold collar enterprises - law, IT, govt, service sectors, finance. Our preferred sentiment to convey is &apos;warm professionalism&apos; - &apos;we&apos;re the experts in this field, don&apos;t doubt our expertise and we&apos;re delighted to work with you&apos;. 

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

We use purple a lot, uncluttered feel, smooth/curved lines, plenty of blank space. 

Espo - the work you did here is brilliant:
http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/sourcingzoom_power_point_master_template
because of the 3 dimensional nature. 

However, this is will be used to make videos for YouTube and be visible in a 3 inch box on our webpages, not on a screen in a training room, so please keep that in mind too.



WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

We&apos;re fresh, perhaps witty, but not cheeky, funky or childish. We need to catch attention in an uncluttered but eye-catching design.

Our colour purple, we use orange as a sub-colour but happy to look at shade of purple, silver... 

See our website: http://www.retentionpartners.com.au/rshr.php and the video at the bottom of that page as an example. Also http://www.retentionpartners.com.au/frr.php as a different styel we used just for one of our seminars. </description>

      <title>Need to create images to illustrate concepts for slide presentations</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/need_to_create_images_to_illustrate_concepts_for_slide_presentations</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

I am the author of a presentation book called &quot;How to Make a Boring Subject Interesting : 52 ways even a nerd can be heard. &quot;  I make presentations around the country and need to begin establishing a standard look and feel for the content on my slides. I want them to have just a single image that I can speak to.  

I use humor in my presentations, as I did in the book, and need a person who has humor and can translate concepts into visuals.

 I have submitted this project as a test. Once I find the right person, I will want to create illustrations for every presentation I deliver ( i speak around the country). I also create presentations for clients, so there are opportunities to go far beyond this project. 

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

Two images illustrating any of the following concepts:

overdue collections
too much inventory
banker is watching me
bad reports or too much detail
late information
stopped marketing
walls between departments - accounting versus sales


OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Small and medium businesses, accountants

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

http://www.salestaxsoftwareguide.com/ - but don&apos;t want my images to be retro -I like the crispness of these images

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

Clean and crisp can be black and white or color - but need to have clean edges.

see my illustrated notecard on www.makeboringinteresting.com  - this is my trademarked notecard but this style won&apos;t work for all of my images. </description>

      <title>PowerPoint Cleanup and Creation of Standard Template</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/powerpoint_cleanup_and_creation_of_standard_template</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are a technology and business consulting firm, offering advsiory services to mid-market and Fortune 500 companies. We have deep expertise that helps companies attack growht and cost savings opportunities strategically and quickly. 

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We need two things:
1) A standard .ppt template on PowerPoint 2007  that actually behaves like a solid template should, with the ability to insert new slides using the master template background, standard text box designs, and standard tables.  Bullet formats, fonts, and other design elements should be consistent throughout.

2) A clean up (grahically) of the attached standard presentation based on the template created in the above. 

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Our audience for our corporate presentations includes C-level executives from our clients and prospective clients. Most often we work from printed hard copy rather than projected slides. 

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

We like a look and feel that is clean, crisp and uncluttered. Subtle design elements are welcome. 

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

We must have our company logo, the appropriate reference to our tag line (Lead with Strategy. Leverage Technolgy. Deliver Results). The color scheme should reflect our corporate colors (see projectleadership.net), although subtle use of the colors is welcome. Color backgorunds for internal slides will probably not work since we are often using printouts/hard copies in our delivery. </description>

      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are in the maritime security business.  We have a technical presentation which has embedded videos and animations.  It is impossible to send (too large and the videos never work right on macs, pc&apos;s, vista, etc.).

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Governments, engineers, investors.

The Blog Council (blogcouncil.org) is a collection of social media executives at the world&apos;s biggest companies. 

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We&apos;re looking for a presentation template -- landscape, 8.5x11, done in PPT or InDesign -- that cleanly delivers text-heavy materials. Page templates should include: a cover page; and pages with 1-3 columns of text or graphics. (I&apos;ve attached rudimentary versions of some of the styles we&apos;d look for in SCAN0001.jpg. Um, your submissions shouldn&apos;t be in ballpoint.)

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

Well, our logo should be in there (attached), and using the colors involved in that logo would seem to make sense. What we want is an easy-to-read, professional looking template. Staying linear helps.</description>

      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

HALO Maritime Defense Systems offers the HALO™ MARITIME SECURITY BARRIER a proprietary solution to secure critical assets vulnerable to boat or diver attacks. In a security-conscious world, both government assets– Navy Bases, Navy Ships in Hostile Territories, Airports, Coast Guard Boats and Facilities– and private assets– Ports, LNG Terminals, LNG Tankers, Nuclear Facilities, Oil Rigs and Facilities, Desalination Plants, Pipelines, Palaces, and Cruise Ships– have a real, immediate, and critical need for high levels of protection that is currently unfulfilled.

HALO™ is specifically designed as a Sea Barrier Defense System. Its composites are designed to withstand any sea state, and also withstand the corrosive nature of salt water.  Its Impact Displacement Design not only allows it to handle high impact incidents, but to do so and remain intact, ready for a secondary impact. 

The stability of the HALO™ structure in any sea state, as well as the modular design, allows HALO™ to address specific security concerns, and also be part of an integrated security solution. HMDS can mount cameras on top, which transmit live images to a remote location, drop netting to the sea floor to prevent diver attacks, provide sonar underneath HALO™, and incorporate any other deterrent, including lighting, sensors, and audible deterrents.

      <title>Simple, Flexible Collateral: Re-Brandable Word Brochure and Power Point</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/simple_flexible_collateral_re_brandable_word_brochure_and_power_point</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

My client is a growing business in the mobile industry. They allow resellers to sign up and get an own-branded product to resell in various world-wide markets. As part of an initiative to better support these resellers, my client would like to provide them with a pool of marketing collateral they each use with their own brands and colour schemes.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We need templates for one Word brochure and one PowerPoint presentation. The layouts should be simple, because each reseller needs to be able to:

* Drop in their own photos in the designated spaces
* Drop in their own logo in the designated spaces
* Re-colour the design elements to match their own branding

Imagine, if you will, a fairly generic PowerPoint template where people will be taking say a red rectangle in the footer and re-colouring it with the paint bucket tool to blue to match their blue logo. Fell free to get as elaborate as you want, but the ability to simply re-colour is the critical requirement here.

In terms of imagery: hands on phones, people using PDAs or iPhones, happy office workers - anything around the concepts of worldwide voice and data communications. We are happy to license any of the photos laid out in your templates if you can provide me with the iStock image numbers.

EXAMPLE: I have uploaded a PowerPoint I attempted for this. It&apos;s not terrible in that it ticks all of the above boxes but it isn&apos;t going to win any awards, either. Having no idea how to create a matching brochure based on this concept, I have given up and am handing over to you.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

The target audience is varied. Although these resellers are all selling the same product, each reseller has their own brand and they all look wildly different. They sell to different markets (direct to consumers, or business to business) and they sell in different countries.

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

Pretty much anything from Stock Layouts. Something along the lines of the free Brochure in the Samples section would be nice, although obviously we&apos;re going to have to work with simpler, re-colourable shapes here. 

Keep in mind: the fewer colours we work with, the fewer items they need to re-colour, and the fewer opportunities they have to create truly horrendous colour combinations :)

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

Deliverables:

* Editable .PPT presentation - one intro slide, one inside page.
* Editable .DOC brochure - cover, two inside pages, rear cover
* DOC should be delivered in both letter and A4 sizes

Constraints:

* Widely supported, cross platform typography - Arial, Trebuchet, Verdana, Yawn
* Logo space must be white - Trust me, these people WILL not be able to recolour the JPGs they will be dropping in from their websites.
* Photos must be standard iStock proportions - Trust me, these people WILL NOT be able to crop.</description>

      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are a group of professional speakers who specialize in the apartment industry. We present 14 large seminars per year to audiences from 150+ in large, metropolitan markets in the United States. Our presenters are both male and female.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We need a PowerPoint template utilizing our new logo (included in the files here), in a variety of colors. I have included our present templates that we are using so that you can see the variety that we need. You will need to look at the uploaded PowerPoint files to understand how this project needs to be designed.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

All ages, all nationalities. Predominantly female. High school graduate and upwards. 

We want our slides to be professional, yet fun and high energy. We are informational AND motivational speakers.

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

Template cannot be so large that we are unable to add copy and images. No copy across the bottom of the slide, please. </description>

      <title>Corporate Recruitment Training Powerpoint Template for Recruiting Toolbox</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/corporate_recruitment_training_powerpoint_template_for_recruiting_toolbox</link>
      <description>LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We&apos;re Recruiting Toolbox, Inc, a consulting and training company that helps companies get better at recruiting.  We&apos;re not headhunters or recruiters.  We partner with HR and recruiting leaders to help teach their recruiters and hiring managers how to find, recruit, interview, select, and hire the people they need.  All of our training is custom made for our clients, very practical and real world (loaded with &quot;tools&quot; and templates/guides).  Learn more at www.recruitingtoolbox.com 

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We need a custom powerpoint template that looks high end, but maintains a practical look (i.e. not over-designed).  Our existing logo and website have a more masculine look and feel, which is ok.  But we don&apos;t want a bunch of wrenches and tools - people already get that from our logo.  Instead, we want to incorporate images of people (diverse people, not too formal - only 1 person with suit and tie - most with business casual).

1) We need a cover/title page with several people - nothing too posed (don&apos;t want 8 people sitting at a table all looking into the camera).  Needs to be room for the training title, for our logo and our client&apos;s logo, the date, and copyright information.  

2) We need a main inner page, with header that&apos;s similar to title page and plenty of room for a text heading, page number and copyright at bottom.  Main area should be set up for color-matching bullets (we like square bullets over round) and text.

3) We need another inner page that&apos;s split 1/3 left and 2/3 right (a vertical line down the 1/3 point, creating a left and right side of the page?) for quotes or big callout on the left, main content on the right.

4) We need another inner page that&apos;s like # 2 above, but with a color-matching, framed photo of a person from the title page (preferably a younger woman) that&apos;s movable on the page (i.e. it could be in the center, or in a corner).  I&apos;d like to be able to add my own photo to this frame, too, to mix it up. 

5) We need a section break page - something to break up training sections.  It can be a takeoff of the main title page, with an image and a centered text box (to say something like &quot;Section 3: How to XYZ&quot;)

6) Finally, we need a powerpoint handout template with a header and footer that complements your design.  Our handouts are vertical, 8-1/2 x 11, with 2 framed slides per page, and logo, copyright, and page number on the bottom.  

For our training, most inner pages tend to look like bulleted lists of text with maybe a supporting image on the right, tables with color matching row headers, process/flow charts with little icons and arrows, quotes on the left (like #3 above) with bulleted text on the right, and pages with nothing more than a Microsoft Word doc image (i.e. a picture of an interviewing guide) or an excel document (i.e. picture of a recruiting forecast spreadsheet). 

Must be appropriate quality and resolution for live presentation (via lcd projector) and print.  Not sure if we can have a solid color dark background (light is ok), as text and images may not reproduce well with some printers.  

Colors: We like the reds, blues, and grays highlighted on our website and in our logo (www.recruitingtoolbox.com).  But we&apos;re open to other complementary colors.  We&apos;re even open to the same template with 2 different colors - maybe one red version, one blue version.  Ideally, we like colors that are flexible, like blue, that can work with all types of corporate logos pretty well. 



OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Training attendees: senior level corporate recruiters, HR managers, hiring managers, interviewers, business executives.  Over 1/3 of our business comes from high tech companies.  

WE LIKE THESE DESIGNS:

Well, we like our maroon logo color.  And generally like really clean design.  Nothing flowery or over designed - prefer simple over complex.  Generally, we&apos;re drawn more to box shapes than circles, 90 degree angles over a lot of curvy-ness.  

We need to be able to put a lot of content on one slide, so don&apos;t want designs that use up too much real estate on the main inner pages (i.e. don&apos;t want too much forced indentation or unusual margins). 

We like the calibri, garamond, and cambria fonts - open to others, but those are pretty easy to use and usually convert with PDF without problems.  Not a fan of italicized or cursive texts.  


WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE (or we don&apos;t want to see) THIS IN OUR DESIGN:

No stick figures.  Want real people photos.  Want our corporate colors (maroon) included somehow, even if it&apos;s just in the color of the header text.  </description>

      <title>SourcingZoom Power Point Master Template</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/sourcingzoom_power_point_master_template</link>
      <description>Creative Brief

With our first crowdSPRING project we designed a great logo! 

We now need a master Power Point template that will be used for presentations to investors, partners, team members and clients. 

About SourcingZoom:  

Sourcing is the process of sourcing products or services. In its simplest form it can be thought of as “procurement” but in its more sophisticated form it involves setting sourcing strategy, deciding whether to build solutions “in-house” or to source externally from a third party and implementing the sourcing strategy which can involve a Request For Proposal (RFP) process, vendor evaluation and contract negotiations. When it involves transferring an existing service (i.e. internal computer operations) to a third party and buying service under a multi-year contract it is referred to as Outsourcing.

SourcingZoom will be a web portal that will support the sourcing process.

Target audience:  

The target audience for the business will consist of sourcing executives either working on the buy-side (within companies looking to source/Outsource) or working on the supply-side (consultants and vendors). These executives will be from small to medium size firms and will include project manages, managers and senior managers etc.

SourcingZoom Keywords / Themes:  

Professional, qualified, trustworthy, credible, a valuable resource, cost-effective, reliable, easy-to-use.

Design: 

The logo portrays SourcingZoom as a modern, professional firm. Likewise, the Power Point template will need to communicate the same. The design must fit the business sector of SourcingZoom, that of professional services. It must be clean and easy to read not distracting the reader from the content. It must also be modern and fresh looking to communicate that SourcingZoom is a new model business addressing an emerging market need. The design however must portray that of a mature firm and one of some size and instill professionalism and confidence. It must not be loud and garish and it must not seem to be trying too hard. Simple wins over flashy! 

Submitted designs must integrate with the logo design, fonts and colors. Additional colors must complement the logo colors. The icon in the logo looks like glass. I don’t know if it is possible to carry this into the Power Point design but it would be cool if it worked. Details and files are provided. 

The design must work well on the screen and for print outs in black and white as well as color. It must also be respectful of “ink” needs when printed.

The font used must work well with the logo font (details provided) but be available as a standard Microsoft Office font (if you think I have this or anything else wrong in this brief please challenge us).

Required Template Layout:

We require four slides, with brand consistency between each (they should look different but clearly be part of an integrated deck), as part of the master template set.

1.	A front cover with text space for presentation title and sub title, presenter name or author, date and a page number holder (running through the deck). 
2.	Content slides must include a text space for a title, consistent with each content slide, and a text space for a tag line/message. Content slides must allow text, graphics, tables etc. to be included without distraction from the design – the content must never be overshadowed by the template design. 
3.	A divider slide to insert between sections within the material. A text space must be included to introduce the following section of the material.
4.	A final slide to be used as a back cover to include the logo and a text space for the web site address.

Details:

•	Logo Fonts are VAG Rounded LT and BT. The Power Point fonts should be available as part of Microsoft Office but they should work with the VAG fonts (don’t use handwriting style fonts).
•	The RGB colors in the logo are: a6ff2c / 60a402 / 76c607
•	The font colors are: 808080 / 333333

And I just had an over-sized &quot;Save the Date&quot; postcard designed through CrowdSpring that I REALLY, REALLY love!

And now I need a &quot;Résumé Girl&quot; branded PowerPoint template for me to use for my current and future PowerPoint presentations.

I need the PowerPoint template to different slide layouts and my contact information on each slide.  Additional information that might be relevant is also welcome through suggestions. 

The winning design needs to be in line with my current brand and color scheme. I&apos;ve attached the .AI and .GIF logos to this project along with the .PDFs of the &quot;Save the Date&quot; that I love!</description>

      <title>RxRN Solutions, Inc. Power Point Template</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/rxrn_solutions_inc_power_point_template</link>
      <description>Let me tell you about us.
RxRN Solutions, Inc. offers INTENSE Camp, an innovative nursing reality camp designed to academically and socially prepare pre-nursing students for entry into the complex academic environment of nursing school. The 50 hour INTENSE curriculum is offered through a live virtual classroom environment using video streaming and VOIP technology. Content specialists use teaching strategies such as case study and small group discussions that enhance the development of critical thinking skills.

RxRN Solutions, Inc. also offers their Bridges to America program that mitigates challenges experienced by internationally educated nurses seeking employment in the U.S. Bridges to America faculty are subject specialists and use interactive teaching techniques when presenting content via live video streaming and VOIP technology. The Bridges to America program is presented internationally. All courses are taught in English.

Here is what we need:
We need a PowerPoint template for our start-up company. Please consider that the PPT will be used for presentations and for printed handouts. It should be professional without being busy. We do not want it distracting for the viewers. We would like the slide master to be able to interface with any slide layout found in Microsoft PowerPoint. If that’s not possible then the submission should contain a title slide and a content slide that has the capacity to accommodate single text box with bullets, two column text boxes with bullets, chart/graph, picture and/or object. The colors used in the logo are: PMS 485 Red and 100% Black, PMS 2975 Blue and PMS 354 Green. We need a design with a dark background for presentations and a white background for printed materials.

Our target audience is:
Nursing students are all ages, genders, and demographics so this PowerPoint should be identifiable to a mature audience. The business may expand across borders so we want something that will appeal to international students as well. 

We like these designs:
We are open to your creativity!

Our design absolutely must have: 
RxRN Solutions, Inc. logo included. The globe is OPTIONAL and could be used as a watermark. The logo colors are: PMS 485 Red and 100% Black; The globe: PMS 2975 Blue and PMS 354 Green and 100% Black.  The PowerPoint Template in Slide Master must contain a title slide and a content slide. We want something easy to use which does not require formatting (example: Slide title should appear consistent in regards to spacing and font on every slide). We need appropriate bullets and numbering for content slides. Also, the slide presentation should be easy to read on a computer screen as most courses will be available online.

Things we don’t like or don&apos;t need for this project or other things to avoid using, doing, seeing, etc.
No comment.

      <title>Fresh PowerPoint template design for trendreport</title><link>http://www.crowdspring.com/projects/graphic_design/powerpoint/fresh_powerpoint_template_design_for_trendreport</link>
      <description>About us:
Synovate is a global market research company. One of our exciting projects is a concept for ongoing consumer trends studies in various categories/ topics. SOON is the name of this concept, and we have several &quot;sub projects&quot; under the SOON umbrella: SOON Media (young people&apos;s new media habits), SOON Well (health and wellbeing), SOON Retail (well, retail), SOON Eat (fastfood, restaurant, convenience), SOON Home (house, home and interiors) and SOON Lifestyle (fashion and design). More may be launched. The target group for our reports and presentations are marketing professionals with our clients companies. We&apos;d like the design template to be fresh (reflecting the dynamic topic of consumer trends and future opportunity) but still needs to have a certain corporate quality. Our clients often see lots of boring corporate slide presentations, so anything to help this project stand out in that crowd is appreciated, as this is a more creative and dynamic type of topic and research project.

What we need:
A Power Point template design with a colour template to use for presentations and reports for the SOON project. Please use attached logos: SOON project logo (main logo for this template) and the Synovate logo (less prominent, more discreetly placed).

It should be a common overall design for all the SOON &quot;sub projects&quot;. But there needs to be some sort of (relatively subtle) identification for each of them (such as a color, design element, name/word or symbol that may be changed/ added by us, and which will separate one sub project from the other). We need a template design executed with four PPT template slides:

1. A front page/ title page
2. A chapter/ section title page
3. A main content page (needs plenty of available room, as we often have info rich slides with graphics, diarams etc)
4. A &quot;creative&quot; page: Use your imagination to make a template page that leaves room for some text and/ or images, but which looks a bit more...well, creative and different (while still part of the overall look and feel of course).

Please indicate how you suggest we identify each of the sub projects in the SOON concept (you do not have to make actual executions for each of the sub projects) by indicating which part or element of the template can be changed.

We also need the appropriate colour template (either you add it to the PPT template, or provide us with the colour codes). Colour template should be based on attached logos (base: orange, red, yellow), with other colours added if you like.

The design MUST include:
- The attached SOON logo
- The attached Synovate logo (less prominently placed that the SOON logo)
- Plenty of room for graphics/ content on the main content slide

We use PC/Windows operating system for your information.

Good luck.
