Let a carousel read like a small magazine
Canva’s Opt-Out Era reference uses restrained layout and serif type. Treat it as a direction for readable storytelling, not a promise of higher saves.

A practical starting point
- On a 1080×1350 slide, begin with roughly 80px outer margins and a shared left alignment.
- Keep one claim per slide. Try a Noto Serif KR 700 headline with a plain sans-serif explanation.
- Close with a one-sentence takeaway and the relevant source.

The visual idea
Whitespace and an obvious reading order give the headline and body separate jobs. A calm layout can still carry a strong opinion.
Choose a story with structure
Try a three-part reflection or a book recommendation with a clear reason. Break the argument across slides rather than shrinking a long paragraph.
