This chart in the WSJ shows how you can focus on data points that matter to your story, while literally ignoring other data points that are less relevant.
This slide is obviously super complex, but you can also apply this style with more mondaine, everyday slides.
Instead of complex animations, it is easer to copy a version of your chart in consecutive slides, and adjust the coloring and messaging to highlight the points.
This approach also makes sure that your story is visible in environments without animations (PDF, mobile devices)
