(93 posts)The only danger I see in that is that it would come off as a structured, rehearsed lecture. That's not to say I stood up without a plan and an outline, but I digress. I don't know, this is the style I want. The character I portray on camera is supposed to be a more scatterbrained version of myself, because I find it more entertaining.
Of course, I will take your criticism into consideration and try doing a video that has a written script. Who knows, it may be both more entertaining and informative.

(1,642 posts)Whereas I started to find the info interesting, you lost the points with strange attempts at humor.
Watching you drink is ridiculous ... the sound of it is rather disgusting.
I turned it off after a few minutes.
You should rethink your online persona.
Other than that, there is some potential here.

I'll try and be more to the point as well.

(590 posts)I appreciate the perspective and information, otherwise agree with other commenters that is needs more... polish? Don't get discouraged- work in progress 'n' all.

(9,350 posts)Your information was very interesting. However, your presentation could be better. First, You should consider giving your presentation without drinking tea, or anything else, during the presentation.
Second, maybe you should try to get your thought together before you start your presentation. I know you claimed you wanted to put forward a scatter brained persona, but some people may not be willing to watch your full presentation because of the seemingly scattered thoughts. Maybe you could even record yourself, watch yourself, take notes, and then record your presentation a second time.
