What to expect at a media training workshop:
Typical media training workshops include aspects of communication
such as
- Body language and movement
- Breathing techniques
- Clothing and appearance
- Eye contact, gestures and expression
- Humour, language and pace
- Pitch, silences, pauses, tone, variety, and voice volume
Giving a good speech or a good performance on
TV or radio, however, is never just a matter of knowing and
practicing techniques. You must have something
credible to say.
Tips for making a credible a speech or handling a TV interview
- Get your audience’s attention with lively, graphic
words
- Get your audience to agree with you about something
- Show you care about the audience and about their problems
(they don’t care how much you know till they know
how much you care)
- Have workable, affordable, ethical solutions
- Do your homework and your research
- Rehearsing to this short list also helps conquer nervousness
