This document discusses vocalization techniques for public speaking, including energy and emphasis, pitch inflection, rhythm and pacing, pauses and silence, and vocal quality. It provides tips for adding energy and emphasis when speaking, such as energetically reaching out to the audience and emphasizing important ideas. Pitch inflection, or changing pitch, helps avoid monotony. Rhythm can be applied in a speech similarly to how it is used in music or stories. Pacing is important - speaking too fast causes adrenaline to kick in while too slow loses audience interest. Purposeful pauses also impact the audience.

- 5. Adding ENERGY AND EMPHASIS • Be energetic when you speak! Think about energetically reaching across space to your listeners- “bringing your voice to them.” • EMPHASIS is the force, or stress you place on important ideas, concepts or feelings. • Nothing turns off audiences more than straining to hear, or being aware of the distance between them and the speaker.

- 7. About Pitch inflection: • A pitch that doesn’t change is a “MONO- TONE”. Monotonous is a synonym for BORING. • Pitch inflection means to raise or lower your pitch on the musical scale. • By inflecting your pitch, you will avoid monotony and exchange more meaning with the audience.

- 11. Why does pacing yourself during a speech matter to an audience?
- 12. PACE: GET IT JUST RIGHT TOO FAST! • Adrenaline always kicks in when you speak in public. • if you had a tendency to speak too quickly before, you’ll certainly do so in that important presentation! TOO SLOW! • There are people who draw out their syllables, and add unnecessary pauses in their speech. • The gaps in between words are not purposeful, so the audience loses interest quickly.
