| 1190412 | 2011-03-31 08:03:00 | Just watched it now, very nice. One thing I've found when speaking in that situation (I've done a bit of radio work, plus a small spot on TV, plus loads of public speaking - small conference style), is to have an outline, it helps you keep the "Umm"s down, I noticed a lot of them. Also saw you mild jitters just at the start, but other than that, great job! |

It's her job to act like she doesn't know anything so I can come across as the "expert" :P Like when she asked what you use a tablet for, that's because prior to the interview I told them I wanted to talk about what a tablet is actually good for. She isn't a tech journo though, she's a music TV presenter, so we can't expect her to understand processors! One thing I've found when speaking in that situation (I've done a bit of radio work, plus a small spot on TV, plus loads of public speaking - small conference style), is to have an outline, it helps you keep the "Umm"s down, I noticed a lot of them.! I did actually have an outline, and a lot of what I said I had rehearsed earlier that day. Actually what I had rehearsed I mostly said toward the start and when we went to the break and they wanted to continue it into another segment I was a little anxious because I hadn't planned on saying much else, but we sorted out what we were going to talk about before going on air and funnily enough I think I came across better in the second half! I just think it's going to take time to be more comfortable in front of the camera. |

| 1190416 | 2011-04-01 02:02:00 | Were you nervous doing the interview on TV? | QW. (15883) | ||
| 1190417 | 2011-04-01 02:48:00 | Yes. Very. I wasn't as nervous when I was actually doing it as I was beforehand though, especially once I got into the swing of it. | Siobhan Keogh (16063) | ||
| 1190418 | 2011-04-01 03:30:00 | You seemed more calm and at-ease than the other woman, so you did great! :) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1190419 | 2011-04-01 23:42:00 | Are you on a panic delay or whatever it's called (time for someone to hit the "what the **** she saying" button) before hitting the air waves? If so, how did you cope with it? I recall for a dare doing a live news reading on Hauraki when they were first land based. I couldn't get past the first 20 seconds because through an open door, I could hear myself delayed. Because I wasn't expecting it, it was decidedly unnerving. Did you have the same thing or was it in real time? | WalOne (4202) | ||
| 1190420 | 2011-04-03 20:37:00 | I don't think so, but the volume was down on every TV so I couldn't hear myself back. I don't know whether the TVs were playing a feed of what we were doing in real time though or what was going on air. | Siobhan Keogh (16063) | ||
