DELIVERY DETAILS(ALSO AVAILABLE IN CHAPTER 11) For this talk, video tape yourself delivering this informative speech. •You should be standing, not sitting, to deliver your speech next to your presentation slides or aids.•Ideally the video should be shot in a quiet room with good lighting.•You will want to use a tripod or similar arrangement to ensure a stable shot that includes your visual aid and most of your body (from the hips or waist up) in the frame at all times.•Remember, if I can't hear you clearly or see your face, that means I can't accurately assess your speaking skills.

This speech will need to be filmed with 3-5 audience members with you in the video. You can start by introducing your guests, having them seated and in frame at all times, and making eye contact with them.

After hitting “record,” introduce your guest, then begin your presentation. Timing your speech will begin at this point. WHAT DO I TURN IN TO THE DROPBOX?
