Techniques Used  is my Pitch

I use PowerPoint presentation to deliver both of my pitches. The made them audience to my pitch well structured and intelligible.

 My written pitch was grammatically correct with attention taken to spelling and punctuation. The mode of address was formal as it audience would be tutors and other members of teaching staff. I used persuasive vocabulary and the use of repetition to influence the audience to approve my idea. I include example of other peoples work of to compare to my idea.

I used PowerPoint slides to enhance my verbal pitch. Each slides had a title and an image to let the audience know exactly what was been talked about. I used sign language and my voice to presentation my pitch, my Communication Support Worker (CSW) voiced over what was been said. I made sure my body language showed that I was confident and fully believed in what I was talking about. I used vocabulary that gave information and motivation.

Both my presentation where structured at an audience of tutors and teaching staff, and because of that I used formal and more complex vocabulary. If my audience were other students or friends I would make the mode of address more informal with some colloquial language.  

Planning for Poster 

This is the planning for my Learning Resource Poster. I have created the image in Photoshop and I am still working on it to improve and enhance it. Each screen shot is number so it shows the sequence of how each effect was created.

What is the purpose of a pitch
Verbal and written pitch is important as they allow you to introduce and promote your product/ idea to an audience. A verbal pitch allows you to express yourself not only with word or signs but also with facial expressions and gestures. A written pitch should use a audience to approve of your idea. it should grammatically correct with accurate spelling and punctuation. Both pitches should be well planned and you should fully believe in what you are pitching.

Adopting a Pet from the Pound
Owning a pet from the pound or Animal Rescue League has many advantages. First of all, a child feels good about rescuing an abandoned or abused animal and giving it a whole new life. Besides, if the animals from the pound aren’t adopted right away, they might be put to sleep. Having a pet also means lots of responsibilities. A child has to feed, clean up after, brush, and exercise the pet.
Another great advantage of having a pet from the pound is the price of these cute and cuddly animals. Pets from the pound cost only a few dollars while pets at a fancy pet store can cost hundreds of dollars.
Once you adopt a pet from the Animal Rescue League, it will quickly become a part of your family. If you are thinking of adopting a pet, you might consider choosing a dog or a cat. Dogs and cats can bring lots of happy times to a family, and they can be excellent companions for a person who lives alone or someone who has lost a loved one. Dogs are also a wonderful source of protection. Cats are funny, and they may help to calm people down when they are sad or mad.
Please consider adopting an animal. If you remember all of the advantages of adopting a pet from the pound, you might find the bird, mouse, hamster, dog, or cat of your choice.
