My Diction And Energy

1. My diction and energy were best when explaining key descriptions of the need and satisfaction. For instance, when explaining the poor conditions of dog shelters (in the "need" part of my speech) I made my words very clear and drawn out like the word "miserable." I said "miserable" longer than I did other words as well as louder. My diction and energy were good at these particular points because I knew that in order to drive home the key points of my need and satisfaction (the majority of my speech) to the audience, I needed to make sure that my diction and energy were amazing. My energy was also very heightened because I made all my hand movements over the top in order to emphasize points like the "miserable" conditions of shelters.
