Condensing the Presentation (Week 7)

Over the weekend, I added the final touches to the presentation of project 3 in preparation of our feedback session with the academic panel. Changes were made in direct reference to the feedback given during Friday’s presentation, however the alteration found most difficult was condensing the 12 minute presentation into 5 minutes. I really valued all of the contextual information our presentation entailed and so I found it difficult to reduce any of that information. For this reason, I put together a power point presentation that ensured no time would be wasted navigating the internet and blog posts, and all visual material could be played in the background as speaking continued over the top. The contextual introduction and indication of relevance to the studio itself ran for almost 3 minutes, only allowing 1 sketch to be focused on for future directions. The periscope sketch became the key focus as Errol and I were interested in the way live broadcasting completely altered both the narrative and non-narrative form of skate video. The short time allocation of the presentation on Monday will require ‘zippy’ speaking to fit everything into 5 minutes.
