Hey guys,
The speeches were overall a good performance by the respective speaker. From the first video, I saw the slides as a more interactive part of the speech. Even though the audience didn't participate, reading something during a speech definitely helps to reinforce what he or she is intending to say. Matthew Naso was a good, strong speaker who delivered was confidence and was somewhat ready for any information flow. What did I learn? This video made me believe that the visual aid will help me, as the audience, digest his information and hopefully end up with a few questions in the end for more expansive knowledge. I think that maybe with a little more practice Matthew could have projected his speech with much more confidence and straight. I think adding some pictures and some graphs would help develop a much more clear message right off the bat.
Courtney Stillman also presented a successful introduction to a potentially great speech. She entered by presented her thesis and her essay in a couple sentences to ready the audience into what kind of information they are going to receive. She makes it a bit personal by including herself as a person who is speaking to the audience directly. What did I learn from Courtney's video? Possibly to go ahead and to not be afraid to let out the gist of the speech in a couple sentences. It's seems better to have an audience that is ready for anything than an audience that is caught off guard.

cambosho,
ReplyDeletei agree, matthew was a good, strong speaker but i am going to dissagree that he delievered with confidence, haha. i think his speech was well but he was nervous about it a little. but his speech defenitly grabbed my attention because of the slides that he used. on the other hand, the other presenter, courtney i believe, did not deliver her speech well with a attention grabber.
Hi Crambosho! Yes, Courtney did some good things in her introduction. She got her audience's attention and previewed what she was going to talk about (necessary steps in a speech such as ours). You should also remember to reiterate your main points during your conclusion. What other things have you learned from the videos that you will use in your speech?
