3. Tom Chatfield
This speaker from the TED talks opens with his love of
video games and related with the community of players.
He also explains the amount of money that has been made
and its increase over the years.
4. He addresses the audience with games and other world
references that they would relate with or widely
publicized.
He also talks about the communities that are dedicated to
video games.
5. I feel that this speaker uses the number 3 TED
commandment. He simplifies “The Big Picture” of gaming
and brings it to the understanding of someone that has
never played a game before or a Massive Multiplayer Role
Playing Game (MMORPG).
He gave good examples of how developers come up with
ways to draw players into the games and keep them
motivated to keep playing after long periods of time.
6. Visual Aids
I know visual aids help me learn how things are done and
keep me interested for long periods of time. This is one of
the tips I picked up on.
7. 3/5
7 Ways games reward the brain.
Pictures are a great way to attract the attention of the
viewer.
The speaker could have slowed down his talk a little and
still accomplish the point of the speech.
I also thought that the speaker would fade in tone and
clarity throughout his speech.
8. What I learned.
I learned from my presenter that its is a good idea to slow
down and make sure your viewer has a good
understanding of what you are talking about. Visual aids
are always good and keep the eyes moving.
9. Comparison
I thought that Sir Ken Robinson was a better speaker due
to his use of comedy to break the ice when he comes out.
Tom Chatfield did not use any comedy and went straight
to business to try and cram as much information into his
presentation as possible.
10. Comparison
Sir Ken Robinson was calm about his speeches he did not
have to rush through and kept the viewer interested.
Tom Chatfield was a fast speaker and had a volume issue it
could have been the microphone but he sounded quiet
and droning at times.
11. Tips
Slow down and rehearse, if you speak too fast the viewer
will lose interest quickly.
Speak up, if you viewer cannot hear what you’re saying he
or she will most likely not retain anything they heard from
your speech.
Use Visuals, they could make or break a presentation.
12. Summary
Tom Chatfield was a great speaker. He may have had a few
difficulties but the information was interesting enough to keep
watching.

Thank you for your time I hope you learned something from my
