Informative Speech

In our english class we've picked a topic of our choice to research more about, and had to make a visual aid for our class to see. I chose to pick behind hip-hop, it was a pretty hard topic to discuss mainly because alot of people really don't understand and it's hard for me to actually break it down for others. I actually liked choosing our own topics because we got to pick something we're interested in. I thought this was alot more fun than the brown bag speech, picking things we're interested in makes everything so much better! I thought i could do alot more better in explaining myself, and by watching my video i should have been more detailed and broke it down piece by piece. Other than that, I thought i did really well.

Brown Bag Speech Evaluation...

Oh my word; Doing this speech wasn't really all that fun because i didn't feel confident at all, i was a little nervous but i mean i speak in front of people all the time. I wasn't at all excited about this, i mean i don't like having a big group of people have their eyes on me....Overall I thought I was pretty good besides the point of my body language, i was slanted over a bit and it just didn't look like i was prepared at all. My voice on camera didn't seem that loud, i thought i was pretty loud but i was shakin' a bit and my voice was cracking. This was actually a good opportunity for people getting to know each other a little bit more, i mean mostly everyone judges someone by the clique their in, the clothing they wear, the things they say... but this really got people wondering about yourself.. I've learned what i should do the next time we have a speech.
