Overall, for my first Ted Talk type of speech I can definitely say it was a learning experience. Not just doing this type of open public speech but the benefits of learning and trying to figure out how to use Imovie for this and further projects is something that helped me tremendously because it is such a useful tool. As for the Public Speaking aspect of my speech I think I did well. I think I really had a good deal of confidence when giving my speech which allowed me to pronounce my words fluently. I think my posture when giving my speech, sitting up straight showing the audience that I wanted to be there presenting this speech to them was something I also did well. This also allowed me to give off a good, strong volume for the audience to hear and understand my speech at. As for things I think I need to work on for the next Ted Talk we do would be one, the formatting of my speech. I think for my first time on Imovie it was hard for me to know the ins and outs of how to use the app but I think as time goes on I will get more and more used to using the app which will allow me to add in different effects to spice up my speech a little better. Another thing I think I need to work on is the speed of the words coming out of my mouth. I think during my Ted Talk I found myself speaking a little fast at times but at other times I found myself speaking at the right pace. I think finding that ability to keep the same pace and speed of my speech throughout my whole presentation is important for me to have a full well rounded speech. Overall, for my first Ted Talk I think I did well but unfortunately I do have some things I could work on but nobody really has a perfect speech, there is always something you are able to work on for next time

Ted Talk Layout
Imovie,
Ok so what I wanna do is I am going to have someone record me like a real speech, every time I am talking im gonna have someone recording me so its gonna be like a real ted talk of me talking live and when I show a picture its gonna be a quick one but just to give the audience a picture in their mind of what I am talking about but my main thing here is ever clip is gonna be of me talking and saying a part of my speech and I have 8 slides
Slide 1, title and name of speaker

Slide 2
Unfortuantely, the best sport to ever be created, hockey, is not very appreciated in the United States of America. Not only should the sports fan of America appreciate it more but these people dont realize what it takes to make the NHL
Slide 3,
From real life experience of playing the game of hockey, as a player you face a large amount of adversity. These NHL players played in many different leagues, spent hours and hours outside working on their stick handling and shooting and gave up many opportunities to go to the beach to chill with their friends, just to get the opportunity to play on this large stage and from my opinion, American sport fans do not appreciate this and dont take the time to appreciate the fact that these guys poured their heart outs for the sport of hockey all through their childhood
Slide 4,
However, in defense to the sport fans across America, hockey is not just an American sport like for example, football, baseball, basketball and even a sport like nascar is. Hockey is viewed all around the world including countries like Canada, Russia, Sweden, Czech Republic, etc. My focus throughout this speech however is the sports fans across America and their view on the NHL and in this case, the NHL definitely takes the loss when comparing the NHL to the NFL, MLB or NBA
Slide 5,
For example, the 2017 Super Bowl game "climbed to tie the second most watched Super Bowl ever for an average of 113.7 million viewers." Compared to the 2016 NHL Stanley Cup when "the sixth game of the 2016 Stanley Cup featuring the Pittsburgh Penguins and the San Jose Sharks averaged nearly 4 million viewers (3.948 million)." Even though these are the most important games of the year for both leagues, the average amount of people who tuned into NBA regular season games is just another small detail to back up my point

Slide 6,
"The most watched game this season across any network was the Christmas NBA finals rematch between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers on ABC, where it averaged 11,100,000 viewers." "Blues and Balckhawks opener had a 0.5 final rating and 905,000 viewers on NBCSN"
Slide 7,
On top of all this, the NHL is barely presented and broadcasted on Sports Center. If I decide to turn on the TV and turn on ESPN to watch Sports Center, for every 15 basketball or football highlights, you might see one NHL highlight. In my eyes, this is wrong and dont really think it is fair for the NHL to be treated like this by the sport fans across the United States

Slide 8,
However, it is tough for the NHL to fix this because it is such a popular world wide sport. I think something the league should work on would be to pay more money to have important games previewed more by American sport fans, whether its commercials, making sure ESPN is showing more of their leagues highlights and also notifying the American sport fans when a big NHL game is going to be on TV. This would benefit the NHL in making more money as well as the sport fans across America getting a better taste of what the best sport to ever be created is like
