State your content-informed design approach:
1. What is the purpose and tone?
2. Select colors that genuinely match the topic
3. Plan visual hierarchy and layout
4. Consider typography choices

from pptx import Presentation
from pptx.util import Inches, Pt
from pptx.dml.color import RGBColor
from pptx.enum.text import PP_ALIGN

prs = Presentation()
slide = prs.slides.add_slide(prs.slide_layouts[6])
