Adding videos to your presentation can either make or break your viewers attention towards your topic. Depending on what type of video you are showing e.g. interactive, instructive or just a general overview of your topic, your viewers might have different reactions to each different one. The length of the video also affects your presentation, carrying on with a 10 min video might bore your audience and simply would not create the environment you need or want for your presentation.
