THE DO’S AND DONT’S WHEN PRESENTING YOUSELF IN PUBLICPart 5 Now OASIS: open, advanced… The next on the list concerns eye contact – see. Eye contact is extremely important and it should start as soon as you are walking out. At the same time, people feel involved, you are getting feedback by looking at the people, and attracting people that are sitting there in the room. You can see them chatting to one another, somebody is checking their SMS, somebody is writing something down. So, it’s giving you important information. Another thing is about feet. Try and have both feet facing the public. If one foot is turning away, the perception can be negative because you are half with the public and half so as running away. So, open, advanced and see… Next on the list concerns breathing – inhale. Take a paragraph from the book and read each word with the same power breathing out at the same time. By the end of the paragraph you would be completely out of breath. But if you practice this kind of the exercise many times during a month, at the end of the month you will be able to do this exercise three times that paragraph on one breath. If you have breath actors and singers talk about, you will be able to modulate your voice and it will be more interesting to listen to you, because the intonation is going to change. Modulating the voice is very important. Practice tongue-twisters to improve your articulation – your comprehension from the public’s point of view. So, now the last word… As we are feeling a little bit tense, a little bit nervous, we forget to do this. The last S means smile. If you smile, you look happy to be there, you look comfortable.
