Delivery Chapter 13 Lecture/Recap
The Art of Delivery • Conveying ideas w/o causing distractions • Formality + attributes of conversation (directness, spontaneity, animation, expressiveness) • Experience improvements • Start with basics (Speech 1) and work on polishing your delivery (Speeches 2, 3, Group project)
Methods of Delivery • Impromptu –on the spot; little to no preparation • Scripted –word-for-word; manuscript • Memorized –word-for-word; delivered from memory • Extemporaneous –prepared and delivered with notes; conversation quality
The Speaker’s Voice • Volume – loudness/softness; adjust to the room • Pitch – highness/lowness; inflections • Rate – speed • Pauses – break; use strategically, avoid vocalized pauses (um, uh) • Vocal variety – using these different elements (strategically)
The Speaker’s Voice • Pronunciation Genuinegen-u-winegen-u-win Arcticar-tic arc-tic • Articulation Ought to ottadon’t know dunno Want to wannahave to hafta • Dialect – based on region or ethnic speech patterns; includes accent, grammar, vocab
The Speaker’s Body • Kinesics: study of body movement • Personal Appearance – fits occasion; creates an impression • Movement – purposeful; avoid distractions • Gestures – purposeful; avoid distractions • Eye Contact – 80-90% of speech; also consider how you look at them; 3 person trick • Don’t just look at Dr. G
PRACTICE!!! • Practice with your notecards and visual aid • Give a full delivery • Practice in front of a mirror or friends/family • Time yourself
Q&A • Create/Brainstorm possible questions • Practice responses • Listen carefully; ask for clarification, if necessary • Answer with positive attitude • Do not focus on one person when answering • Do not ramble; answer the question and move on • Avoid one word responses • No Q&A for Speech 1; will announce for future speeches

Reminders • Visual aids required (an object) • Bring outline on day of presentation • Bring critique sheets • Time requirements
Practicing with Objects • What will you use? • Why? • Appropriate? • How will you use it? • Can the audience see it? • Do not • Talk to your aid • Pass the aid around (why?) • Show it to only one side of audience
