Making good slides is only a small part of a good presentation. You must also be able to communicate it as a good story to your audience. Use some emotion and passion. Don't just ramble of a list of facts (or bulletpoints).
A recent comparison Garr Reynolds from PresentationZen made, was that professional stand-up comics and presenters & speakers have much in common. This is why he recommends us to watch 'Comedian' (Amazon), a documentary about Jerry Seinfeld.
I loved this documentary and I too highly recommend it. However, it's not for everyone — don't buy it if you just are looking for laughs; it's not a comedy though it's often funny — but if you are a professional speaker or presenter (or any other professional) with a passion for learning and improving your speaking skills, then I think you will enjoy this documentary.
