  4. Keynote skills: Grouping, Layering & Pivoting
    1. Grouping
    2. Layering
    3. Pivoting
  5. Screen-Shot Refresher [We usually use COMMAND+SHIFT+4 and then DRAG our desired area with the cross hair cursor]
  6. Work-time
    1. Finish Outline
    2. Identify Thesis
    3. Layout Keynote
    4. Work on Slides/Script


    Grouping allows you to lock items together and act on them 
    (move, animate, etc...) as one
    SHIFT+CLICK to select multiple items and then 
    choose GROUP from the ARRANGE menu






    Layering allows you to overlap items and shift them 
    up and down as if in a stack
    Use this with animations to create cool effects!





    Pivoting allows you to rotate an item on an axis 
    (those little 'handles' that show up when you select an item)
