Task 1: Prepare the Speech Planning Document (attached below)
Task 2: Write a 2 minute speech. It will be turned into a “How To” video on how to improve the service of the wait staff of your favorite restaurant. Pick any restaurant. I am based in the USA so make it a restaurant that is available in the U.S. Or you can just do a generic how-to and I can pick the restaurant. I will film in a kitchen so you can incorporate some objects into the how-to video.
The written speech will not be turned in, so you do not have to format it professionally.
Be sure you have speech transitions. Spoken transitions are like the punctuation of a written message (they allow us to follow and understand).Be sure you do sequencing tips. A ‘How To’ is not for content delivery, it’s for action. Tell someone HOW to do something – 1 to 2 to 3 etc.
