The group that I have chosen to make an observation report on is
"Cadbury, Dairy Milk." The reason why I chose this group is because
their performance varied from things that they were excellent at and things
that they could improve on. From what I gathered, this groups performance
showed that a very little effort was made, they lacked in organisation and I
could see that they either did not practise enough or did not practise at all
as they were unable to come up with an answer as to why they chose certain
things, such as the locations used in their storyboard. Although they had a
slight idea they did not communicate this effectively to the group and it was
not clearly demonstrated. The support they had for each other was reasonable
for example. Someone struggled to read the presentation on the board therefore
another member of their team took over, however this could have been done in a
way where it was natural not so abrupt.
Personally the written content of the slides where excellent because
there was a lot of informative detailed information, however from another
persons perspective the amount of content within each slide could have slightly
been a bit too much, also because there was not many images presented could
have there was nothing to keep the attention of the audience. However the size
and colour of the font in comparison to the background was excellent as all the
content was visibly clear for me to read. Although they did add a storyboard
into their presentation it was not visually clear, I could not see or tell what
the story line was to it.
Their body language and gestures could have improved because there were
no hand movements or body movements to engage the audience hands were behind
their backs or in their pockets, which did not come across presentable. No
engagement skills or techniques were used to get the audience focused on their
presentation. There was also no enthusiasm; they did not seem excited about
their product or excited to inform us about their product. The tone of their
voices were at a monotone level, which can come across as boring and sometimes
makes the text they’re reading feel longer than It actually is. Eye contact is
hard to distribute to a group of people when not enough practise has gone into
what you are presenting although they tried and made efforts to give eye
contact to their audience the majority of the time their eyes were fixed to the
board at what they were reading.
However overall this group did give an exceptional presentation, as at
the end of the presentation I was clear on what their product was, the history
of their product, the unique selling points of their product, the competition
that their product come across etc So all of the main underlined questions were
answered for me all in that one presentation, good qualities in a presentation
for a first.
