Credit where it&#8217;s due, the branding is distinctive and coherent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there isn&#8217;t a beamer theme. UCD Marketing have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucd.ie\/universityrelations\/marketing\/\">Powerpoints to beat the band<\/a>, but I (and at least a dozen other people worldwide) prefer generating slidedecks in TeX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I have made a beamer theme to replicate the official UCD branding. There is a norm of naming beamer themes after university locations such as AnnArbor or Berkeley. The UCD beamer theme is thus named <strong><em>Belfield<\/em><\/strong>. Though the UCD brand is very well known on our island, this little bit of research infrastructure can help you represent the university internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An example PDF of the Belfield theme is viewable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hargaden.com\/enda\/ucdbeamertheme\/Belfield_ThemeExample.pdf\">HERE<\/a>. I include a couple of screenshots below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1-300x168.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1399\" width=\"600\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1-1024x575.png 1024w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab1.png 1211w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2-300x170.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1400\" width=\"600\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2-1024x579.png 1024w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2-768x434.png 768w, https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/screengrab2.png 1208w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can download all the files you need to install and use the theme in one zip-file <a href=\"https:\/\/hargaden.com\/enda\/ucdbeamertheme\/UCDbeamer.zip\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively you can download them individually.
