Combine high contrast colours to make your slide stand out

Subtility of soft pastel colours and sophisticated colour palettes are part of the know-how of an artist. If you don't master this, avoid complex mix of colours. Go for the contrast instead.

Here are 5 basic rules for you:

1. White text on black background works perfect, as well as the contrary. You can do better: white text on dark grey background.

2. Or Canary yellow (it's the Pantone 803, not the gold yellow) on dark blue template.

3. Remember that what counts is HIGH CONTRAST. It's your guaranteed victory against aging lamps and dirty filters of videoprojectors.

4. Avoid also the use of too many colours on a single slide. Simplicity always works. Still don't be simplistic.

5. Dark backgrounds are soft for the eye, as the powerful videoprojector lamp is effective on light items which in this case is your well-contrasted colours.
