Planning: I thought about things that people cared about.
Dogs were one of them, I was watching a in the arms of the angels commercial,
that was followed by a wounded warriors project commercial. My friend change
the channel at the second commercial, and I bothered me once I realized that
the majority of people care more about abused animals rather than neglected
human beings.
Stop:
-For my speech I tried to evoke emotion since I felt a successful
radical idea must spark something in peoples bellies. However, not all of the
thing I did were good for this idea. One example of this would be the torn up
dog pictures, it just doesn't really help the idea I'm trying to convey to my audience.
- I want to stop getting myself into a lot of out of class
drama right before my speech. IT made the last speech I gave very challenging since it was hard to
focus on anything but my crashed car, no job and living situation.
- I need to stop not dressing up. The first couple of
speeches I tried to look presentable but the last I didn't really put a lot of
effort into. This is an issue because I felt as though people took me less
seriously.
-I want to stop looking around the room when I'm talking to
my audience, but rather look them in the
eyes. Politicians do this, and some of the most famous politicians of all time
had very radical ideas.
Start:
-In the video my voice sounds hoarse, raspy and dry. Now
while this is a cool effect in movies, here it sounds like I am dying from no
water. I can remember before I went up on stage that I was very thirsty, and
that I was about to go get water but was called up and was out of time. From
now on I need to bring water to class with me for my speeches.
-I need to start going to the gym again before my speech. In
my first two speeches I felt as though I was tired because I worked out before.
However, this last speech I did not work out before hand, and I just felt
groggy.
-After watching my video I realized that I don't move aloud
the room as much as I could. If I were to do this I would be able to convey my message
to more people in the room, not just the ones in front of my presentation.
Also, this would give me the illusion of power in the room, as if I were Zack
or any pother kind of teacher.
-The whole class uses prezi, I think I should start using it
to so that presentations go that much smoother, plus prezi has a professional
look to it.
-I think I should invest in a better phone so that I can
film the speech myself and not have to worry about other doing it for me, this
would make me feel better I think.
Continue:
-A lot of my classmates liked my speech because of the
emotion I brought with it. I need to continue to use my anger and frustrations
and guide them into my speeches to create a passionate and intense environment for
my speech.
-I must continue to evoke emotion in my speech. I noticed
that my pictures hit people below the belt, which is exactly what I was trying
to do.
-I should always pick serious topics from now on. I felt as
though my el chap speech and my last speech had to many jokes or laughable
ideas, but when I am serious, it is much better.
-Before this speech I left class to go to the bathroom.
While walking to the bathroom I was listening to music to help calm me down,
and it did. I would say that my last spe4ech was the best speech so far, so I should
try to replicate it and I felt that the music was definetly a positive influence.
-I want to continue to meditate throughout the day so that
on the time that my presentation arises I can make sure that I am calm, focused
and ready to give the speech I need to give.
-I want to continue to make a over generalized planning sheet
so that I have a basic idea of what I want to do, but at the same time I want
to make sure that I have freedom to change it to make it exactly how I want it
from a creative point of view.

Jake-I like your topic because it is serious problem. I thought Jake gave a clear, well paced, and well supported presentation. I was interested in learning about the subject and could easily follow along with the slow pace. I really felt like you were calm and at place when up on the stage and talking to the audience. The information & statistics she was stated seem very factual. You definitely stated beneficial statistics and factual evidence to make your speech credible. I think It was best speech in the class.

ReplyDeleteHey Jake,
Your Continue section really hits the mark. Your speech was the best for this genre because - to put it simply - it was radical.
Personally, I was put off by the amount of statistic heavy, analytic, and really in depth arguments brought by alot of speeches because - while they were convincing - I did not feel like I was listening to a radical speech.
Your use of imagery, tone of voice, personal anecdotes, and the message itself was key to the success and radical feeling given by your speech.
That said, I like the constructive criticism that you have been able to identify. Lifting heavy at the gym definitely sounds like a good way to improve speeches. massive gains and better vocal projection sounds good to me
Great Speech!
