We have just completed our first presentation on a Pitch for
advertising our product in Language and literature. Today I would like to
discuss what we included within our Pitch, what went well and what could have
been improved. Within the presentation we attempted to incorporate the idea of
pathos, with how families would go there in tough times, or to enjoy themselves
as well as the younger generation where they would enjoy themselves and make
some new memories. As well as Logos due to giving information about how it was
affordable, making it sound logical to eat there when you are facing financial
hardship. With what we were given I believe we failed in this aspect due to our
decision on context, we had been given the chance to fully choose our context,
however this made it harder for our group due to the making of another
decision. We struggled in incorporating the
context, which was In America during the 1980s, which would have mace the pitch
slightly more interesting due to the time period. We used very few images, one
of them being the Uncle Sam post which says “I want you” on it, we chose this
to try and make the product relate to the American culture, and that they had
just come out of a war. The other images were about the different foods which
would give an example of what to expect from Cheeky Chaps Burgers. Moving on I
personally believe that we as a group were clear and understandable, when
presenting our information, we had tried to make, the animations were and
attempt to connect our context to the Pitch, also to make the presentation more
amusing. This has shown me that preparation is the key, being able to recite
your speech and information without looking at a que card, and a clear
understanding of your topic. I have also notice that you need to follow the
rubric and what is needed from you to complete the assignment at hand.
I think the points you made on this reflection are very precise. Your pitch was understandable and amusing. Your voice was loud and clear, making the pitch more persuasive. The pictures you used were appropriate with the topic and the context. However, maybe you could have rehearsed the whole presentation with your group if you had more time and memorize all your lines.
ReplyDeleteHi Jarred, this reflection is structured well, however it wasn't clear for the reader what you were trying to pitch. I understand how you used pathos, ethos and logos but not in relation to your product. Overall, you have included good ideas to improve this practice FOA. Unfortunately I wasn't here to see you present, which makes it harder for me to judge your presentation as a whole. Good job!
ReplyDeleteJarred, I agree with you that having to choose a context added more difficulty to the task because it was indeed something extra to take care of. However, the presentation went well overall so I think you and your group managed to overcome this challenge. Well done!
