Alexandra Dorau's ENT3003 Blog

I unfortunately did not receive any feedback on the last elevator pitch that I uploaded to my blog. Some self-criticism that I can provide myself with is to speak clearer and slower, enunciate your words, and try not to stutter when speaking. If I can fix these issues in my elevator pitches, I would be able to better myself and present myself better as a whole. After completing the third elevator pitch, I can say that I have my script almost memorized. There are a few things that I would like to change to it, but overall, I believe that it is strong. I can also admit to being very comfortable in front of a camera after completing all three of my elevator pitches. Overall, from my first elevator pitch to my third elevator pitch, I can truly say that I have improved my style and techniques and I cannot wait to apply them to real-life situations.
