For your next speech assignment, you must prepare and present a three-minute infomer- cial. An infomercial is a long commercial that provides an extensive product or service description and sales information. Although infomercials are generally 30 minutes to one hour long, your infomercial should last only three minutes. PREPARING YOUR SPEECH Prepare your speech by following these steps: 1. Select a speech goal. a. Brainstorm to select a topic. Choose a product or service that you want to highlight in your infomercial. Your choice may be real or imaginary. It can be something tangible (like a cell phone or a vacuum cleaner), or it can be intangible (like a diet plan or financial services). b. Decide what methods you'll use to inform your audience. You can inform by describing, defining, comparing and contrasting, narrating, and demonstrating. Describing: Create an accurate and vivid verbal picture of an object, feature, event, person, or image. This approach answers questions of who, what, and where. Explain features such as its size, shape, color, composition, age, con- dition, and spatial organization. Defining: Explain the meaning of something. Differentiate it from similar ideas. Explain its history and its function. Use synonyms and antonyms to give your subject more depth. Comparing and contrasting: Focus on ways in which your subject is similar to or different from other things. For example, if you've chosen to talk about a new type of pot scrubber, you might point out how much it resembles another brand in capability, but point out how it's softer and less abrasive than that other one.
