  • An Introduction to Authentic Public Speaking
    An Introduction to Authentic Public Speaking www.presencetraining.co.uk Contents Introduction 3 Principle 1 – It’s all about you, but not in the way you think 4 Principle 2 – Don’t try to control your feelings 5 Principle 3 – Make (the right sort of) eye contact 7 Principle 4 – See and be seen 9 Principle 5 – Trust the silence 11 Principle 6 – Don’t forget to breathe 13 Principle 7 – The connection is more important than the content 15 So now what…? 17 Further reading 18 2 Introduction Welcome to this introductory guide to authentic public speaking. What we’re aiming to introduce to you here is a radically different and astonishingly effective way of doing public speaking. One that blew me away and delighted me when I first discovered it. The foundation for this approach is an understanding that relationship is at the heart of what it means to be human, and that if we get the relationships right everything else follows. And that public speaking is no exception. So, this is public speaking viewed as an act of relating to others – something we do with others - not to others. From this point of view public speaking is a co-created act. We create an event of public speaking with our audience. Yes, we have different roles – the speaker and the audience, yet we are both listening to each other and both responding. What we’ve tried to do in this guide is to encapsulate most of the main principles that we cover in the first 2 days of our Foundation training.

  • Global Cinema
    GLOBAL CINEMA Edited by Katarzyna Marciniak, Anikó Imre, and Áine O’Healy The Global Cinema series publishes innovative scholarship on the transnational themes, industries, economies, and aesthetic elements that increasingly connect cinemas around the world. It promotes theoretically transformative and politi- cally challenging projects that rethink film studies from cross-cultural, comparative perspectives, bringing into focus forms of cinematic production that resist nation- alist or hegemonic frameworks. Rather than aiming at comprehensive geographical coverage, it foregrounds transnational interconnections in the production, dis- tribution, exhibition, study, and teaching of film. Dedicated to global aspects of cinema, this pioneering series combines original perspectives and new method- ological paths with accessibility and coverage. Both “global” and “cinema” remain open to a range of approaches and interpretations, new and traditional. Books pub- lished in the series sustain a specific concern with the medium of cinema but do not defensively protect the boundaries of film studies, recognizing that film exists in a converging media environment. The series emphasizes a historically expanded rather than an exclusively presentist notion of globalization; it is mindful of reposi- tioning “the global” away from a US-centric/Eurocentric grid, and remains critical of celebratory notions of “globalizing film studies.” Katarzyna Marciniak is a professor of Transnational Studies in the English Depart- ment at Ohio University. Anikó Imre is an associate

  • James Taylor
    JAMES TAYLOR Over the course of his long career, James Taylor has earned 40 gold, platinum and multi- platinum awards for a catalog running from 1970’s Sweet Baby James to his Grammy Award-winning efforts Hourglass (1997) and October Road (2002). Taylor’s first Greatest Hits album earned him the RIAA’s elite Diamond Award, given for sales in excess of 10 million units in the United States. For his accomplishments, James Taylor was honored with the 1998 Century Award, Billboard magazine’s highest accolade, bestowed for distinguished creative achievement. The year 2000 saw his induction into both the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame and the prestigious Songwriter’s Hall of Fame. In 2007 he was nominated for a Grammy Award for James Taylor at Christmas. In 2008 Taylor garnered another Emmy nomination for One Man Band album. Raised in North Carolina, Taylor now lives in western Massachusetts. He has sold some 35 million albums throughout his career, which began back in 1968 when he was signed by Peter Asher to the Beatles’ Apple Records. The album James Taylor was his first and only solo effort for Apple, which came a year after his first working experience with Danny Kortchmar and the band Flying Machine. It was only a matter of time before Taylor would make his mark. Above all, there are the songs: “Fire and Rain,” “Country Road,” “Something in The Way She Moves,” ”Mexico,” “Shower The People,” “Your Smiling Face,” “Carolina In My Mind,” “Sweet Baby James,” “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight,” “You Can Close Your Eyes,” “Walking Man,” “Never Die Young,” “Shed A Little Light,” “Copperline” and many more.

While he hasn't worked with Rapp before, he said, "he has a very good reputation.""I love the enthusiasm of a regional orchestra," he said. "It's not that the Boston Symphony isn't great, but a regional orchestra has an extra kick."Taylor, who has been performing since he was a teenager, and has released 18 albums, beginning with his eponymous 1970 album on Capricorn Records, released his latest, "Blue Sky," on Whistling Dog in 2014.He said his part of Sunday's program will include the Marvin Fisher/Jack Segal song "When Sunny Gets Blue"; "Over the Rainbow"; James Taylor's "Carolina in My Mind"; and a "banjo extravaganza" in which he will put down his guitar and play banjo.

  • Livingston Taylor – Livtaylor.Com Livingston
    Livingston Taylor – livtaylor.com Livingston Taylor’s career as a professional musician has rattled along for over thirty years. He has toured—some might say, perpetually—with such major artists as Linda Ronstadt, Jimmy Buffett, Fleetwood Mac, and Jethro Tull. He has recorded thirteen albums, and there are with three retrospectives as well. He currently maintains a performing schedule of more than a hundred shows a year, which include club, theater, college, and full symphony repertoire. A strong television background includes hosting a daily syndicated pop music show This Week’s Music for Viacom plus the occasional soap-opera cameo (reporter Sam Cocharan on the now-defunct soap Texas). Now a full professor, Livingston has lectured regularly at the Berklee College of Music in Boston since 1985 and has taught a performance course there since 1989. The concept, and much of the inspiration, for his book Stage Performance come from those classes. Born in Boston in 1950 and raised in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Livingston is the fourth of five children of Isaac and Trudy Taylor. He was sixteen when he moved back to Boston to finish high school. “Barely,” he says, noting that the next year he began performing in the Boston coffeehouse circuit. At eighteen he met Jon Landau, who later became Bruce Springsteen’s producer and manager. It was Landau who produced Livingston’s first recording in Macon, Georgia, for Atlantic Records when he was nineteen. Livingston has written most of his music repertoire, including such Top Forty hits as “I Will Be in Love with You” and “I’ll Come Running”; and, recorded by his brother James, “I Can Dream of You,” “Going Round One More Time,” and “Boatman” (off the double Grammy-winning album Hourglass).
