In the video 9-1, Evan provides an effective introduction which should include the three elements: attention getters, set up the speech’s purpose & thesis, and review main points. In order to get her audiences attention, Janine uses a Kodak camera to enter her topic. This is very direct and creative way for her audiences to get interested in her speech.
On the other hand, the speaker of the persuasive speech, uses another method, asking questions, in her introduction. Both examples are effectively applying the methods of attention getters to establish their purpose.
In the conclusion section of the example videos, the persuasive speech speaker provides a real story to reinforce her purpose, which has highlighted the importance of her idea, as a memorable message.
Overall, Evan has presented well in his informative speech- “The Universal Language of Techno Music.” Yet after watching the video, I seem not getting his specific purpose, which is to have his audiences understand how techno music has brought different nations together. I do agree that every kind of music could bring different culture nations together. Through his entire speech, he only provides the Techno music is popular in Australia, and he doesn’t mention other nations. Therefore, I wonder whether the Techno music is a universal language or just a particular group’s universal language.
