Communication Presentation Review - Shades of Black

Overall this group's presentation was good, although there were a couple of areas where it fell down. It was obvious that the group was very well organised and knew what each of their roles within the presentation was. The slides that accompanied the speaking were also well put together. They did not have too much text, or especially the whole talk, but just enough that the audience knew what they were talking about. I did feel as if the pictures that accompanied the talk were too generic, and didn't have anything to do with the group's project, and although they had some link to the topic, they were too generic to really lend anything to the presentation. What everyone said seemed well thought out, although there were a few times were it seemed like the text was a little too verbose. This didn't help the presentation at all, but rather made it seem like they were spilling out large words just for the sake of doing so rather than to explain the topic of communication.

One main concern of mine was that the group tried to tackle the entire idea of communication rather than to pick a small section of it and do it thoroughly. While they did split up the topic into sub topics, these were all summarised quickly by an individual. I think it would have been more substantial to pick one or two of these sub topics and focus the entire presentation on those.

The video at the end of the presentation was interesting, although it did seem to just reiterate the presentation. I did like the interview style the group used, although it seemed too disjointed by each person being in a large variety of seated positions.
