    • Use fragmented bullets
    • (you must use full sentences that set up quotes and quoted material)
  8. Subheads

    • Each frame/slide should have a two part subhead, which gives the section of the paper and a descriptive title to what that particular frame/slide covers
    • Example
    • Analysis: Community and Titusville Playhouse, Inc.

    • Example
