3. Candy Chang Grew up in New York
but moved to New Orleans
where she felt the need to
broaden the worlds perspective
of life.
CANDY
CHANG She found an abandon building
where she made a wall
dedicated to writing what YOU
would do before you died. The
entire world soon took notice
and began a movement.
5. I wouldn’t completely consider Candy a
motivational speaker but she does
change lives with her speeches.
She began with an amazing introduction
that got the audience thinking, then
she began to ask questions getting
the audience wondering.
6. Chang made it known that you can involve the entire community just to help
others want to improve lives. She than began to emphasize what SHE did
what she began to do for the community, and the one accomplishment
she felt A lot of passion for was the Before I Die project.
7. Out of the entire list of 10
commandments I feel the one Candy
Chang used directly was
commandment 4.
Not only does she show deep emotion
in the project she partook in, but she
showed on stage how much that one
person changed her perspective on
life through her speech.
8. As an audience member I felt the power,
honesty, and love she had for that one
individual and for the thrive she had to
make other feel the same way.
Candy began to cry on stage which gave me
pure sympathy and made me want to
help in anyway I could.
9. I would give Candy a 5 out of 5 on her presentation. I wouldn’t give her a 4
but, I do think that she was too soft spoken. I understand that this
subject was sad and she even cried during it, but it was an extremely
compelling story and I feel she could have giving us more feeling of
excitement to help with the communities.
I loved her story, ideas, and every emotion she felt throughout the entire
presentation. Nothing beats a woman who can change the World. I give
her a lot of respect and she is well worth a 5.
10. Candy Chang related to Nancy
Durante because of her story
being told and the slides that
followed right after. Nancy is all
about having a solid
presentation and following it up
with slides that can relate with
exactly what your talking about,
and I feel that’s what Candy did
during her presentation.
11. Even with the small amount of time Candy was on stage she helped me
realize a lot more than I would have ever thought I could in 5 minutes. I
retained the kind of information that I began to feel just as deep as she
did.
When I realized how deeply she felt about this, and the fact that she had
enough courage to share with the World, I could understand the comfort
ability she had talking on stage with an audience who didn’t even know
her.
Chang included the audience without even trying
She engaged my attention immediately.
12. Candy was obviously more emotional than
Ken but, they both had strong topics that
they emphasized emotion for.
13. Candy was more talking with slides that
showed what she did in the past to back
her story up.
Ken used slides that went along with humor
and also backed it up with humorous
random slides that were less
14. If I were going to talk about
something on stage I would
make sure it was something I
was truly passionate about. That
exactly what I would tell anyone
about a speech. If you wrote it,
and you want everyone to know
how you feel about that certain
topic than SHOW IT. There is no
right or wrong answer, its YOUR
opinion so don’t worry about
what people say, just speak!
