Presentation
March 2017
On the 22nd we had to present our ideas in front
of our tutor and the rest of the class. These are ideas we have developed over
the past couple of months to prepare us for the presentation. This was supposed
to simulate what it would be like presenting an idea in front of producers,
directors etc.
I was the first to present; I had printed booklets (bibles)
of the show to give to the tutors.
I also brought the model of the 58, the ship
I had commissioned by Micheal Tharme; an external modeller. Another asset I
created was a PowerPoint to visually support what I would be talking about.
I felt very nervous presenting my idea; considering the time
I was using and thinking carefully of every word I was using. Because I had to
translate my idea as clearly as possible. With practice and rehearsals I
structured the presentation in separate sections which I followed. This allowed
me to not repeat information. We were given 10 minutes to present, which I completed
in within time; I also had time to take a question.
If I had to present again I would improve by: clearly
showing the title of the show; upon reflection I found that I had not said the
name of the show at the beginning. I small but very important detail that I
feel frustrated that I missed on the day. I would also have engaged with the
model effectively, by passing it around the room for closer inspection and
adding another element to the presentation. I felt like I was moving a lot
around the front of the room as I was moving forward to not hide behind the
desk; however I needed to return to click the next slide. I would improve this
by staying behind the desk, and not concern myself with positioning.
Overall I feel the presentation went well, but could have
gone better. I will apply what I have learnt to future presentations I may
give.
