Add Oomph to Your Stories by Bringing the Characters Alive

June 10


with Jon Schwartz, a.k.a. Vinny Verelli
Jon SchwartzYou tell stories in your presentations about your stern father, wise grandmother, bawdy aunt or clueless ex-boss. But what if you illustrated the character of their personality through your voice tone, accent, facial expression and/or body language? It would make your presentation much more powerful and the point of the story more memorable.

If you don’t incorporate memorable characters into your stories, you’re missing an opportunity to make a stronger impact on your audience. The more you can do to bring your stories to life the better chance you have of making a difference.

Jon is a master at characterization. His most memorable character is Vinny Verelli, The Goomba Guru of Negativity Management(R). Why does Vinny stand out? For one thing, he’s quite a character, literally one of dozens created by Jon.

You will learn:

  • simple tools that you can start using immediately, to add a new dimension to your presentations
  • tips on how to do accents and dialects
  • why less is more and the importance of doing nothing
  • how to explore character development on your own with tools and resources to help you
  • how to avoid common performance pitfalls
