A run-through of a completed talk or lecture, to assess and present aspects of the performance that do not facilitate its effective delivery.

This service focuses on the performative aspects of a talk. You probably know well how the mannerisms of a speaker can enhance or detract from their message - but what you may not know is that stage presence can be taught. Once the form of your talk, lecture, or video has been set, I will be your stage director, analyzing your presentation style and suggesting ways in which you can make it more effective. If need be, we will engage in vocal and physical exercises, technology strategies, and skill building in all of the minute but critical aspects of performance that can make or break a presentation. You will emerge from our work more confident and more comfortable on stage - and maybe you’ll even start having a little fun.

What You’ll Get:

• A run-through of a completed talk or lecture.

• Detailed notes on your performance (from advancing your slides to what to wear), how it affects your talk, and how to increase its impact.

• Exercises and strategies for enhancing stage presence.

This service is booked hourly at $80/hour.
