evaluating your presentation


 

Evaluating my presentation

I took the role of presenting my character who was boy called “Jermaine” I had to empathise my character and become him and also during my lessons in media explore his character more , to make my presentation and mockumentry effective.

I delivered my presentation by feeding the class information , using skills and images, I used images such as …

Character profile-my character profile had all the evidence about my character and my role.wich we used at the start of the presentation.

Storyboard-I presented my storyboard and added it to the PowerPoint and explained it more and expand my character to the audience.

I used presenting skills...

Tone of voice- I used tone of voice when I was welcoming and introducing my character in my presentation.

facial expression – I had facial expression to show and present my character effectively.

Body language- I used body language to become my character and the way I stood

I was pleased with my skills  I used although I could of use a range of more skills and have more confidence by memorising what I have to say and also using more gestures.

I could of developed  my tone of voice because most of the time I was really loud then I was quiet. I the future I need to work on my tone of voice when I am presenting , to help me with doing this I need to practice it more  with my group and have more confidence when I  am speaking.

Also, I need to take in my advice/feedback.
You have done well and have explained fully about what you have done and what skills you have used and how you could improve.
