Progressive Reveal

점진적 강조 슬라이드

Each time a new point appears, the previous ones dim — so the audience's eyes stay on whatever you are saying right now.

Where a build focuses on entering in order, progressive reveal manages what happens after entry so nothing lingers at full strength. Leave all three sentences bold, and the audience's eyes jump to the third one while the presenter is still on the second.

The demo lights up three items in sequence while dimming whichever came before to a muted color. Only the current line stays bold and full color — the whole frame always points at "this line, right now."

Checklist: is there ever more than one boldly emphasized line at once, do past points stay faintly visible instead of disappearing entirely so context is not lost, does the pace of the dimming match your speaking pace.

When to use

Use it for a short chain of reasoning — problem, cause, solution — that has to stay on one slide.
