Beamer Templates

Beamer templates for producing presentations in LaTeX that match Turing house style.

Getting the template files

Download a *.zip file with all template files from here. The Beamer templates are in the beamer-templates subfolder. Alternatively, you can clone this repository using Git (use the latest-stable branch if you don't want to be exposed to random changes).

Installation

You can use the templates without installing them by copying the following *.sty files to the folder containing your presentation. If you want to install the templates for easier use across multiple presentations, copy the following *.sty files to the corresponding subfolders in your Beamer themes directory:

  • beamerthemeTuring.sty should be copied to the themes subfolder
  • beamerouterthemeTuring.sty should be copied to the outerthemes subfolder
  • beamerinnerthemeTuring.sty should be copied to the innerthemes subfolder
  • beamercolorthemeTuring.sty should be copied to the colorthemes subfolder

Note: The theme needs access to the Turing logo, so you will need to copy the beamer-templates/images folder to the folder containing each of your presentations, even if you install the *.sty files to your Beamer themes directory.

Usage

  • Copy the Turing-skeleton-example.tex file as the base for your presentation. You should also copy the images folder with the Turing logos to the folder containing your presentation.
  • Choose the light or dark theme by retaining either \usetheme{TuringLight} or \usetheme{TuringDark} (make sure to uncomment your chosen theme if necessary by removing any leading "%" at the start of the line. Delete or comment out the other theme (you can comment a line out by placing a "%" at the start of the line).
  • Set the presentation title, subtitle, author and date within the curly braces of the \title{}, \subtitle{}, \author{} and \date{} fields.
  • Create your text-based slides following either the single-column or double-column page example skeletons.
