One of the requirements of Global Game Jam is that all the jammers are shown the keynote presentation at the beginning of the event.
If your internet connection is not too good, then the keynote and subtitles will also be provided as a downloadable file you can download in advance of the event.
Make sure you have a good sound system and that all the jammers can hear. Same for the image!
Make sure you turn subtitles on in your language on the Keynote.
You may also want to consider writing up your own slides before this presentation. Check below for a template or .
Closing presentations are a really great way to bring all the jammers together at the end of the event, and share what has been made during the experience.
If you have a large site with many teams, then a good way to do this is to ask the teams to produce a 2-3 minute video of gameplay which they can talk over. This keeps the presentations short and concise, and minimises technical issues. The videos can also be uploaded on the project pages of GGJ website! If already uploaded to YouTube, all the videos can be made into a playlist, and played through one computer (meaning no need for annoying HDMI converters or projector technical problems).
If you have hearing impaired jammers, consider trying to find a sign language interpreter for the presentations.
