Hi everyone- Just recently last week I presented my topic in front of 200+ students and faculty. I was super nervous, but it ended up being really successful.
PechaKucha (Japanese: ぺちゃくちゃ) is a presentation style in which 20 slides are shown for 20 seconds each (6 minutes and 40 seconds in total). The format, which keeps presentations concise and fast-paced, powers multiple-speaker events called PechaKucha Nights (PKNs).g time no talk. PechaKucha was developed by Tokyo-based architects, Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham, as a way to maximize the exchange of ideas while keeping the audience’s attention. This used by the creative arts community, typically consist of images and, in some cases, videos. Usually held yearly, there are over 900 cities with ‘registered’ PKNs. The ‘registration’ process is informal – called a ‘handshake’ by Klein and Dytham – and is renewed yearly. It is expected that there is only one official PKN per city but anyone can use the format as long as they clear it with the official group or if they simply borrow the method for their own event.
I do think I did very good but I found some tips that will help me for my future Pecha Kucha's -hopefully I will be doing more in the future.
Everyone seemed super engaged in my presentation despite my pictures. One things I found challenging was that I had barely any pictures that I took myself. I was nervous to put random google pictures, but it ended up being 100% okay.
We got really positive feedback which made all the hard work so worth it!
