17A Elevator Pitch No. 2

1) https://youtu.be/EeE0JKIc-vk

2) I received very constructive and helpful feedback. I was honestly surprised about how well I explained and represented my idea. I definitely thought I had not done so well on that front. However I also received very good constructive criticism on my stands and eye contact. I found that feedback to be very useful and helpful because not only does it catch the attention of the audience more but it also helps me focus and not deviate from the main topic.

3) I did not change much of the pitch's content but more so the way the message was conveyed. Given that my feedback was that my opportunity was very explained but lacked a certain excitement and body language. So for this pitch i decided to maintain eye contact throughout the whole pitch as well as using more hand gestures and movement combined with using various tones in my voice in order to bring more excitement and grab the audience's attention successfully.

  1. Hey Manuel,
    Like last time, I believe you did another great job with the pitch. I can see that you took the feedback and advice of your peers and made any necessary changes. It is definitely important to constantly have strong eye contact throughout the entire speech. I have been able to master this task because of my public speaking course. Hand gestures and movements are also essential to deliver a well-spoken and organized pitch or speech. Great job on your second pitch!

  2. Hey Manuel,

    Great job on the second pitch, you definitely slowed down a little and got more descriptive in certain places to give the listener an even better experience. I am glad you were able to take the constructive criticism and run with it. It is very important to run with it rather than run from it. Not only does that show you improved, but it showed your humility in the process. Great job!
