So, the other week we presented our group presentation on the characteristics of good/evil anthropomorphic characters in stop motion animation. From doing this presentation with my group my I have learned a number of things some of the most important being , You should try not to present it in a conversational style , but be more direct with your audience , and continuing on from this point to make sure that you are clear and exact with your statement with no muttering , umming or ahhing.
Along with this I found there to be a number of interesting points in another of the groups presentations about how anthropomorphic , and their specific characterisations help to target certain audiences , were a normal character wouldn't be able to penetrate said audience.
I completely agree with your point that a presentation should be direct, it allows the audience to connect to the presenters and engage in the subject, however I think there is a certain appeal to the conversational style presentation; it makes the audience feel relaxed.
ReplyDeleteI actually think that your presentation was a really good mix of both styles, you worked well as a team to support each other's points and keep the presentation flowing in a relaxed but informative way that was really interesting as an audience member.
I particularly enjoyed your presentation, I think that contrasting good and evil characters of the same species really emphasised the anthropomorphic features that make a character emote a certain way, and the diagrams were both entertaining and enlightening!
