Do You Believe

He often changes his tone between different paragraphs. He persuades the audience by using logos, giving statistics on an issue. The style in which he writes is in a formal but then changes his tone in the last paragraph. For example, in this sentence he used in the last paragraph, “Make fun if you will of these kids launching lawsuits against the fast-food industry, but don't be surprised if you're the next plaintiff.” He sets this sentence towards his other intended audience to not think bad of those children. He appeal to their emotions by pathos. He knows by appealing to one’s emotions has a strong effect. It assists him to persuade certain people that think with their emotions rather than with

In this analysis, one will be able to see the correct and incorrect actions that speakers may commit. More specifically, the speech, “Marcus Luttrell, speaker New York, 1 of 2 / Operation Red Wings - Lone Survivor” and “Marcus Luttrell, speaker New York, 2 of 2 / Operation Red Wings - Lone Survivor” will be analyzed to understand the difficulties and the triumphs that speakers commonly have. This paper will examine Marcus Luttrell’s speech mechanics, structure, development, and influence over the audience.

As I walked up to the front of the classroom, I thought of how hard I had prepared for this during the last few weeks. I knew the material like I knew my own name. I had thought of every possible scenario, and practiced how I would respond to it. And as I looked around at the crowd, they looked genuinely interested to hear about my topic. Hey, I thought to myself. This will not be too hard. I started, and my mind was immediately changed. I stammered in the middle of my opening sentence. What a way to start the presentation, right? Well, for Kenneth Koch, that type of experience is normal, and frequently occurring. His poem displays how stammering can be a destructive event in someone’s life.

During her TED presentation, Dr. Amy Cuddy’s use of voice was inconsistent. Her volume was easy to hear, but her words were difficult to understand due to the rate at which she spoke. Although Dr. Cuddy was articulate, she spoke incredibly fast, which could easily be misconstrued as mumbled speech. Her vocal variety could use improvement, but overall, it was not monotone the entire presentation. Dr. Amy Cuddy’s passion was evident in her tone; however, she faltered in the delivery of her speech. Rather than being an eloquent, smooth presentation, Dr. Cuddy repeatedly stumbled and used filler words. Moreover, some of her stumbling seemed to cause a few awkward pauses when she lost her place. Not all of Dr. Cuddy’s pauses were ill timed, though. She effectively paused when using visual aides, as well as when she recounted the story about one of her Harvard students.

His hands never seem to sit on the podium for too long, we can tell he is used to tedious work. He reflects on the progress that has been made as well as the anticipated progress to come. Frequent cutbacks are made between the marigold gown of his smiling patron as she nods in sync with every motion. Everyone listens to his game plan, the silence giving him room to work his craft. He is no longer a rookie, he has conditioned himself from practice to outlast the blaring silence and hold his own as center of attention.

While I was listening to the audio recording of his speech, he sounded so confident when talking to them. He was a persuasive speaker and spoke to his audience with respect and honesty. He began his speech with a strong hook which I believe caught the attention of his listeners and myself. “I

Increasing the power and impact of speaking through behaviors to avoid and skills to master stands the perceived thesis of Julian Treasure’s TED Talks on “How to speak so that people want to listen” (2013). Likening the human voice to learning how to master an instrument, Treasure immediately establishes ethos with his heterogeneous audience by focusing his main idea on a simple, highly relatable topic, with dynamism, directness, and a palatable sense of expertise. Strategically applying non-repetitious doses of anecdotes to support his claims, the weighty supporting ideas are lightened and balanced creating ease of listening – audience members respond with laughs and smiles solidifying their bond and entertainment to the topic.

Just like Dr.Blank stated, we have to struggle in order to get what we want in society. I would describe this speech to a NCSU student about how it relates to public speaking through the vocal deliver. In order for someone to rally with you and believe what you are talking about you have to have a confident vocal deliver. Dr.Blank deliver is vocal

However, I was very nervous giving the speech. This is a weakness that I noticed and that was mentioned by the peer evaluators. The most obvious sign of my nervousness was my repetitive use of the space-filler "mmmm"

On Monday,October 14, 2013 at 7:00 P.M., I attended the Bradford Area School District school board meeting at Floyd C. Fretz Middle School in the large group instruction room. This meeting was important for the teachers, students, and the schools in the district. It provided information that correlated to the material in class and a perspective on what situations as a future teacher I may experience.

It is said that they delighted in Joel’s words “tonight I'm going to do the old stuff.” Joel gave the audience what they want, and his final tour turned out to be a great success. In an article “TAKE IT FROM BILLY JOEL,” the author points out “the same is true for a speaker.” While an entertainer or communicator must feel passionate about their message, that message should be synchronized with the audience's psyche and desire. To identify the audience is a key to effective communication.

What a speech by Simon, he started his speech by grabbing all the audience attention by saying “So today I’m going to share with you some speechwriter secrets. Because I don’t know whether you know this, but there is a secret language of leadership; a secret language of leadership that we all used to be taught at school. Ancient rhetoric.” After hearing what he said, I couldn’t stop watching the video, because I always wanted to know how to speak like leaders.

Public communication is very important when in a discussion with coworkers and such. The one weakness that some people run into is silence. The spiral of silence theory by Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann explains why certain people fall under the pressure and seclude to silence. Silence may not always be a bad thing, but according to a study by Lucy J. MacGregor, the fact is that silence during a speech or conversation is absolutely bad. With this, silence while talking to a large group negatively affects the listeners in a way in which some words in the speech will not be remembered. The point is that silence tends to destroy people’s speeches. Words are forgotten in the speech; Loss of the attention by the listeners happens and the

In public speaking of any form to a diverse group of individuals, my main consideration as the speaker is my concentration on the audience that I am speaking to. In starting an effective presentation,

By now, Stinson has gained his audience attention with his introduction. He suddenly displays a great body of his speech through content and organization. Stinson demonstrates
