Write-Up

I need to remove the full description of my animatic, and allow the animatic to speak
for itself more. The major criticism of my overview was that I was basically giving
saying the same thing twice, by spelling it all out and then showing the animatic.
In the future, I think I can aleviate this by either giving a smaller induction, and
perhaps adding a small music track to occupy the viewers ears so it doesn't seem so
disjointing when I suddenly stop speaking.

While I added travel plans and such to the presentation due to a percieved
requirement, I would keep the plans in as they are important to me if I can manage
to pull them off.

I also need to create a better transition from my past to my present, perhaps adding
a deeper personal development as a means of conveying the magnitude of the changes
that have brought me here today.

First and foremost above all of these, however, I need to develop my own skills at
speaking in front of a group of people. My mind tends to go mostly blank when put
in front of people, causing me to forget things which I have gone over multiple times.
This caused me to focus too intently on the notecards I had made, as opposed to
engaging with the audience.
