Muistattehan, että aiomme omaksua pechakuchamaisen tavan esitellä hankkeitamme? tai ainakin kokeilemme tätä kahden minuutin aikaa.


Tätä varten suunniteltu "harjoitus" on suunniteltu pidettäväksi siis torstaina 14.5. klo 14-17. Tosiprolaiset tämän ehkä

hämärästi muistavatkin. Tila on tietotekniikkaluokka Hämeentie 161:ssä, ja virallinen kutsu tulee ensi viikon aikana.

Tässä ohjeita, kun alatte miettiä esityksiänne \-  ohjeet on tässä tapauksessa tehty luettaviksi, ei välttämättä noudatettaviksi :p . Tarinallisuutta, iskevyyttä ja omakohtaisuutta korostetaan... ja sitä, että esityksen laatimiseen kuluu aikaa, on siis hyvä nyt jo aloittaa miettiminen.\\

Pecha Kucha \-ilta on esitysformaatti, jonka avulla voidaan esitellä luovaa työtä helposti ja epämuodollisesti. Sen suunnittelivat alun perin vuonna 2003 tokiolaisen arkkitehtitoimiston työntekijät, jotta nuoret muotoilijat voisivat tavata, verkostoitua ja esitellä töitään julkisesti. Formaatti on levinnyt moniin kaupunkeihin eri puolilla maailmaa.

 

Nimi juontuu japanikielisestä sanasta, joka kuvaa keskustelun, "porinan", ääntä.

 

Pecha Kucha \-illan tavoitteena on pitää esitykset lyhyinä, kiinnostustaso korkealla ja mahdollistaa se, että monet esittäjät voivat jakaa ideoitaan yhden illan kuluessa. Esittäjät ja aiheet valitaan hyvissä ajoin ennen esitystä. Jokainen esittäjä saa esittää 20 kuvaa, jokaista tasan 20 sekunnin ajan. Yhden esittelijän esitysaika on siis 6 minuuttia 40 sekuntia. Tapahtumissa on yleensä 10-14 kutsuttua puhujaa. Esittäjät ovat usein muotoilun, arkkitehtuurin, valokuvauksen, kuvataiteiden tai muilta luovilta aloilta, mutta esitykset ovat alkaneet ulottua myös yliopistoihin ja liike-elämään.\[1\]

 

Esitysten sisältöä ei rajoiteta millään tavalla. Jotkut järjestäjät ovat lisänneet formaattiin omia versioitaan. Groningenissa Hollannissa yhtyeen live-esitys sai kaksi varattua aikaa. Oulussa esityksiä piti muutama filosofi. Järjestäjänä oli Pohjois-Suomen Arkkitehdit SAFA.\[2\] Los Angelesissa useat maantieteilijät ovat käyttäneet formaattia, jotta he voisivat selostaa ja esitellä visuaalisesti tutkimustyötään. Rovaniemellä, joka on maailman pohjoisin Pecha Kucha \-kaupunki, järjestettiin Pecha Kucha Night lokakuussa 2008. Tapahtumassa kuultiin luovien alojen taitajien puheita sekä live-esiintyjinä muun muassa Rinneradiota.

h3. Pecha Kucha Nights: Guide to Better Presentations Skills

July 3rd, 2007
Paul Baron

h4. Preparation


h5. Choose a theme

Portfolio pieces are standard, but by no means required. Some of the most crowd-pleasing presentations I've seen have been about what the presenter does outside the studio. Photos of clouds, deconstructions of human love, honeymoon pictures; if you can tell it in a compelling way, you can tell it at Pecha Kucha.

h5. Tell a story

Even a strict portfolio presentation benefits from an over-arching narrative to pull the work together. Don't just describe what's on the screen, reveal your thought process, your mistakes and your epiphanies. The audience may just begin to care about you and your work.

h5. Take your time

Crafting a presentation takes time. Dumping 20 images into Keynote won't cut it. You must decide on a theme, gather material, work out your script, and adjust rhythm and pace, and all this takes time. Count on at least 6 hours of preparation spread over a few days.

h5. Rehearsal

Completing the slides doesn't mean you are ready to present them. Even twenty seconds can feel endless for you and the audience if you don't know the material. Rehearse until you feel a rhythm taking over and the initial stiffness melt away.
* Recruit a guinea pig audience. A friend is      good, a stranger is even better. (note: your pet guinea pig is not      acceptable)
* Stand up.
* Pay attention to your body language and      the tone of your voice. Do you look slouchy, stiff, bored?
* Try to imagine yourself in the audience.      Would you enjoy the presentation? If not, trim, tweak, project, whatever      it takes to get you excited about your own work.

h4. Showtime


h5. The First Word

Without revealing too much, set a few expectations. Introduce yourself, where you come from, and what you will present. Quickly.

h5. Talking

* Pechakucha means "chit-chat" in Japanese,      so that means talk. Every presentation requires a different amount of      narration, but don't stay silent: if people wanted to stare at a screen,      they'd go to a movie. They're here for you.
* Speak up\! If people were put to sleep by      the previous presentation, it will wake them up. Besides, when was the      last time you heard "too loud\! speak softer" at a presentation?
* Speak into the mic. If you move (which you      should), the mic should rotate with your head. If you turn your head to      show something on the screen and the mic doesn't turn with you, people will      not hear you anymore. Simple.
* Breathe. The audience needs pauses to      digest your genius, so snappy bursts are better than an endless stream. Use      silence as your punctuation.
* Articulate, because it's rude to talk with      your mouth full.
* Time your comments so you can follow the      slides in a controlled manner. If you start feeling like you are being      dragged down the street by a big dog chasing a squirrel, let go of the      leash, take a breath and start with the next slide.

h5. Language

If your presentation is bilingual, that leaves only 10 seconds per language per slide, enough for a simple sentence really. The slide may flip before you finish both languages. In this case, continue with the second language over the new slide and finish up with the first language.

Even better, maintain this \| A•B \| B•A \| rhythm throughout. This reduces language switches by half, which is easier for both you and your audience to keep up with.

h5. Body Language

Audience. Talk to the audience, not your shoes, not the projector, not the wall, not your notes, not the front row. Smile, make eye contact, talk with everyone.

h5. Endurance

20 seconds is short, but 6m 40s is pretty long. Aim to keep the same intensity for 20 slides or people will be gazing into the bottom of their glass by half-time.

h5. The Last Word (some ideas)

* Give thanks.
* Offer people a next step: Where can they      see more? How can they find you? Where will you be after the show?
* If you have to beg for work, be elegant or      at least funny in doing so.
* Alternatively you can dive into the crowd.

h4. Post-Apocalypse

Don't go home... yet. Scan the room to see how you've done. Someone may be trying to catch your gaze, someone may have an opportunity for you, someone may want to buy you a beer etc. You've talked to the audience, give them a chance to respond.

A Pecha Kucha Night is a rare chance to feel the creative pulse of a city in just a few hours. But more than a slideshow, it thrives on new human connections created during each event. Pecha Kucha can start discussions and relationships; so don't be shy, show your work, make an impact, and let's keep the chit-chat alive.
