Public Speaking for Artists

Feeling freshly qualified to impart some of our experience having presented our work to over eight hundred people at Digital Book World’s conference in sunny Nashville, Tennessee…

Here we share some of our views on what you might want to consider if you have the terrifying task of presenting your work to a roomful of people.

We actually felt relatively relaxed before our presentation in Nashville as the presentation room didn’t look that large. That was until it was pointed out that we were scoping out the wrong room and the actual room was the one next to it -which was vast. Cue gentle increase in palpitations…

So we’ve broken down our Crucial Countdown: Guide to Public Speaking for Artists into two parts. The first part relating to the preparation….

Here we give you a rundown on our top tips for artists when public speaking. Fresh from speaking at Digital Book World in the US in front of almost 1k people, we talk about our experience and how it may help prepare you for speaking to the crowd.

The second part is related to the actual day of your presentation. Enjoy!…

The second of our two-parter crucial countdown guide to public speaking for artists (although the rest of you will hopefully find it useful too).
