Humorous Speeches
I’m sure all of us have been
overloaded with advice and hints on depicting humorous speeches. Consider all the anecdotes and stories by
Mark Twain, Will Rogers, great comedians like Sid Ceasar, Danny Kaye, Milton Berle
and others. But please let me
digress. What about we poor mortals not
on their exalted plane? How can we
deliver humorous speeches that will capture an audience’s attention on
voice-over jobs, standup comedy, sales meetings, weather forecasts on T.V. or
political presentations where humorous speeches may be beneficial in diffusing
a somewhat tense situation and help overcome fear of public speaking? You can obtain audio materials,
demonstrations, and humorous speeches by checking on the Voice Store.
Also, it is very important to
note that there are numerous humorous speeches in public domain that can easily
be accessed and utilized without bringing up copyright issues. This can be used as a guide in formulating
your material. It is standard operating
procedure among professionals. Let’s be
honest! Who wants to sit still for a
speech or presentation without getting a few laughs? That’s why humorous speeches are such an integral part of any
presentation.
You do not have to be a comic to
deliver humorous speeches. The main objective is to have fun, relate to your
audience, and have a good time. Many
libraries have volumes written on humorous speeches. They can be helpful in the
beginning; however, this is no substitute for a voice-over or public speaking
coach.
Listen to some of my examples of
humorous speeches. They are geared toward human understanding and non-technical
language, which will give a full comprehensible picture of how to use humorous
speeches as a means of communicating with fluency and vividness. They will help you eliminate fear that
impairs the functioning of the whole mind-body entity.
My demonstrations of humorous
speeches offered on CDs or WAV files at the Voice Store will help you master
the art of the impromptu speech, which should have an opening, body, and
conclusion with appropriate humor interspersed.
