Background Information

Guidelines for speeches:

- When filming your speech:- Stand erect during all speeches (except for possibly sitting during the demonstration speech).
- Frame the view to include your head, shoulders, and hand gestures.
- Whenever possible, deliver your speech in front of a live audience.
- Be sure to have the three basic parts of a speech:- Introduction.
- Discussion (body).
- Conclusion.
- Focus your content so that it has good unity and a clear message for your specific audience.
- Think of internal transitions and signals that show coherence and the development of thoughts.
- Plan an interesting "catchy" opening.
- End with a "memorable" closing statement.
- Rehearse your speech, using your outline as a guide for telling your message. Do not read to your audience!
- Check the following techniques:- Effective use of vocal variety.
- Natural, but not sloppy, posture; erect, but not stiff.
- Good use of nonverbal signals: eyes flowing about the audience, not too rapidly nor staring; gestures; and appropriate body movement.
- Natural, but controlled, breathing
