What would help you explain the case?
Start with the point you need to explain and the materials behind it. Jolie can build a PowerPoint deck, create a timeline or animated sequence, compare documents, or revise slides your team already uses.
We agree the content, review dates and person responsible for approval before production. Jolie can also work with your existing graphics team. Specialized medical, scientific or 3D work is discussed separately.
PowerPoint presentations and animations
A presentation can combine slides, exhibit images, timelines and animated sequences. The scope can include building a new deck from your materials or refining an existing presentation.
- PowerPoint slide design. Organize the material into readable slides with a consistent visual style.
- Presentation animations. Reveal information in stages, explain an event sequence or direct attention to a selected part of a graphic.
- Exhibits and timelines. Keep visual explanations connected to the supporting materials supplied by the trial team.
- Revisions and playback. Incorporate approved changes and check the presentation on the agreed display setup.
Share the intended use, approximate number of slides or sequences, existing source materials and delivery date. Counsel approves the content and its use. Discuss your PowerPoint or animation project.
Make it readable from the jury box
Small labels, dense tables and a layout that depends on a large desktop monitor can become difficult to follow on a courtroom display. Review representative graphics at the intended display size when the setup is available. Check the order of information, visible text and any builds or transitions used during the explanation.
- Keep exhibit references consistent with the trial team’s working list.
- Identify source material for factual entries and labels.
- Confirm whether a graphic is shown all at once or in stages.
- Provide the approved display file and retain its editable source separately.
- Recheck changed files before adding them to the presentation set.
Example: a simple event sequence
Scroll sideways to view all columns
| Sequence | Illustrative event | Presentation question |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Request received | Which source supports the date? |
| 2 | Inspection completed | Should the supporting page appear next? |
| 3 | Response sent | Show the complete message or a selected passage? |
Even a short sequence involves choices about sourcing and display. Counsel supplies and approves the factual content; presentation preparation makes the sequence usable alongside the supporting exhibits. A graphic is not treated as approved for courtroom use merely because a display file is complete.
Keep everyone on the current version
Agree on a naming convention and one person responsible for approval. A useful handoff identifies the current version, what changed, and whether the earlier file should be retired. Avoid relying on an email thread with several attachments named final.
If a revised demonstrative changes the presentation sequence, let the operator know what should happen before and after it. Rehearse the handoff between the graphic and any document or deposition clip it accompanies.
Plan the work and review dates
Tell us what you need to show, roughly how many slides or sequences you have in mind, and when you need them. Mention any existing graphics or design team.
Discuss your presentation with Jolie. Counsel approves the content and its use, subject to the court’s rulings.
Before we begin
Questions from trial teams.
Can you work with our existing graphics team?
Yes. Coordination can cover approved display files, revisions and the presentation sequence. Identify the designer and approval contact when the work is scoped.
Can you create PowerPoint presentations and animations?
Yes. Jolie creates PowerPoint presentations and presentation animations, including work based on your existing slides and materials. Share the content, intended use and deadline so the scope and review process can be agreed. Specialized medical, scientific or 3D production needs should be identified at the outset.
