Room 101 preparation...

POWERFUL SPEECHES

Emma Watson UN speech


Barack Obama Victory speech


Watch these two speeches. Think about how the speakers generate a feeling of passion and audience involvement. Note down any persuasive devices that you recognise (take note of the time on the video).

Think also about the paralinguistic and prosodic features:


  • Facial expression
  • Eye contact
  • Hand gestures
  • Tone of voice
  • Pauses for effect
  • Volume of voice
