Hi everyone,
I have been asked to give UX feedback on a website, and prepared a lot of handwritten notes on it. I now want to give this feedback to the client and I was wondering what format to present this feedback in a "professional" way. This is my first UX gig so your reply is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Sofia

Hi Sofia,
I use Visio and screen capture tool (mainly SnagIt) to do this kind of work. You can take a screen grab and paste in Visio and use the Visio tools (callouts, notes, arrows etc) to add your comments specific to each screen. Visio lets you add multiple pages within one file, that way you can have all your feedback in one file and track the progress easily.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Akshay

Depending on the relationship with the client you should present it in the most professional manner. Pretend they are actually going to read it and take heed.
I try to provide an "Executive Summary" at the top -- just a paragraph or two that sums up your findings. If that is catchy enough they will read on. Break down your findings into natural catagories and assemble them in a priority order.
Always include compliments on whatever they've done right. I list suggestions of what they can do next in the order of most impact/ least cost or technical effort first and so on, down the line. You can consider it "biggest bang for the buck".
Congratulations on your first of many gigs!

Thank you for the feedback guys, it is all very useful. I don't have visio, so my choices are probably Powerpoint as Sachendra suggests or Illustrator. Would it be an overkill to use Illustrator for this?
Thanks,
Sofia

I like using power point or keynote as well.
I'd annotate it in Omnigraffle with the Kinogi stencils which have a great set of annotation icons you can number.
