Demonstration Speech Video Assignment

Upon completing my demonstration speech on how to make my Perfectly Pipeable Buttercream Frosting I knew that I could have done better. I was worried about timing and got jumbled. In saying this, I do not think that my speech was bad. There were things I did well on and some that I did not do so well on. I am moderately okay with the way my speech turned out. I believe that my introduction was possibly the strongest part of my speech because that is where my passion was. I spoke about my Grandmother whom I looked up to until she passed away. Her passion is my passion and I work hard to be as wonderful as she was. I made myself credible by explaining that I have used this

I listed the ingredients without hesitation, but had a few mistakes when I was going into too much detail at that time. I specifically noticed this in two places, when I was talking about the vanilla extract being clear and the possibility of needing the milk. I used phrases that were sort of awkward or unclear, such as when I said, “possibly you could use.” I should have said, “you could possibly need to use.” I incorporated my visual aid into my presentation in two ways. I had my two demonstration cupcakes set out on a table next to the cake box that had my business name on it. I used an unfrosted cupcake to explain how to frost a rosette onto the cupcake as my first use of the visual aid. I then showed the finished product of the rosette by holding up an already decorated cupcake. I had another plan for my visual aid by ran into a complication the night before. I believe my delivery went well. I got everything that I wanted to say out within my time frame. I stumbled over some things a bit, but tried to not let it bother me too much. I feel like I sped up and slowed down a bit during my speech. My audience seemed generally interested in what I was saying and I believe that I kept their attention. It also helps that I had 20 cupcakes waiting to be

    During this persuasive speech, I once again started out slow (meaning during the introduction), but it eventually progressed and was much more easier to understand compared to the Informal Speech I had previously given. As soon as I had gotten more comfortable, it started to flow much better. My transitions between paragraphs made it clearer for my audience to follow. My points used were difficult to come by, but the goal of the speech to persuade my audience was still there and was still effective. If the points were more clear, the speech would have been better than it allegedly turned out. I do not have much strengths during my speeches, but what I can do to get better is to think of what I am going to say during my speech with the help…

    What I believe I did well on was link the proverb with the speech and told a story that relates to it. The story was about how I tried skydiving for my first time, and was nervous for it. But after doing it I ended up liking it. Also I believe I did well when it came to looking at my note cards. Only looking backs at it a couple of times and always tried to make eye contact with the audience.…

    This was the easiest speech, considering that all I had to do was rant about the story I was telling. For this speech, I didn’t feel that nervous because it was something that I remember vividly and nothing could go wrong with it. Moving on to the next speech, which was the informative speech, I felt nervousness once again. The fact that we had to research everything well and make sure the sources were cited correctly, then try memorizing what we would say for 6 minutes, and aside from that remember to do the speaker’s triangle, I got anxious. Fortunately, I did not do horrible, which is what I was expecting. Continuing to the next speech, we had our persuasive speech. This speech at first seemed easy because it was similar to the informative speech in many ways. The only difference was the time limit and the PowerPoint we had to make. For this speech I was well prepared and I felt great about it, I thought it was going to be the best speech. I had high hopes, but not everything goes as planned because as soon as my speech started and I was about to change the slide, I was unable to use the clicker. I got embarrassed and did not want to continue, but I knew I had to. I pushed along through the speech until I finished it. Although it wasn’t the best speech, I had to learn that not everything will flow the way you want things to, and instead you need to move…

    I thought that my Informative Speech went very well. There were a few things that I think I can improve on, but other than those little hiccups I think that I executed it very well. To prepare for the speech, I practiced three times. One time in front of my mother, one time in front of my whole family, then on time by myself. These practices really helped me feel more confident about what I was going to say and help me figure out what I needed to add and or put in to make the speech better. I felt like I did well after I finished my speech. I didn’t use any flashcards while I was up in front of the class so I thought that I went well. I didn’t stutter or lose my place because I practiced a few times before hand. I also thought that…

    I think that I have done well on finding information about this topic. I did a lot of research and made sure I have enough knowledge about the thing that I want to talk about. Besides that, I think that I succeeded in making changes to my speech accordingly. One of the difficulties I found during my preparation is that it is hard to not put personal opinions into the speech, especially when the topic is very closely related to my life. But I managed to solve the problem by not trying to convey any opinions to my audiences. I am only in charge of giving the information and they can make judgments by themselves. It was also very hard to sort out useful points in the huge amount of information.…

    I was touched. My investment was worthwhile, and they were listening it. In this speech, I thought that I did well in these several areas: Firstly, I still was proud of my PowerPoint. The strong visual aids were very powerful. For example, when I compared with two boys’ life, it clearly showed the difference between the developed and developing countries, and could influence audiences’ emotion. This was a way of pathos which I learned from class. Secondly, I also still clearly and logically focused on topic. I previewed my main points and thesis in the beginning of my speech and repeated these in my conclusion. Compared with last speech, I felt I have improved in these areas: first of all, I tried to keep eye contact with my audience, and thought some related points, and get their attentions. For example, I used the hottest and nearest news like Black Friday crazy shopping to provide relevance to audience. Moreover, my transitions were more fluent and connect to contents than last speech. In addition, I found reliable resources from ASU library or other authoritative references such as World Bank databases and the executive director of Greenpeace. Fourthly, I control and adjust the number of my words in speech draft according to my speech rate in order to finish on time. Finally, I practiced more times and clearly remembered my organization, so I felt more…

    Use a variety of visual aids. We agree that visual aids will add a new dimension to our presentations, but which ones should we use. I suggest incorporating many. It will keep your presentation interesting and lively. Having flip charts around the room that audience participants move to for various feedback exercises that involve them; using slides with more graphics than words or even relative cartoons; posters; useful handouts; and props that serve as metaphors can all work together to hold attention.…
