Group speech

TAR OFF

 (Trinidad, Ben, Jesus, Castle, Daisy)

I have to say, they are a great group of people. I enjoyed all the time we spent together to get this right. Every person in our group contribute in some way to our presentation. To your question, what was everyone’s roles? Ben’s responsibility was setting up our Prezzie, and playing the Australian surfer, which I thought was funny as heck. Castle job was finding information and filming of people, along with asking how the tar had affected them personally. Her role as Tar Jenni, she fit the part perfect. Jesus was great and helping with information on tar and playing the jogger with a hoarse. That too was hilarious. Daisy with the film horror Tar video, and the tourist visiting from Seattle Washington, Assume! She did really well in telling them information about why it was important to buy our product to help our local community. I did some interviewing on the beach, I came up with the idea “Thank you Tar Jenni”, I said it, but it was Ben’s idea to say it after every part. It was my idea to play the roles to introduce Tar Off and I named the product. My role as a manager was my idea along with the name of my motel. “Shot gun Motel” POW, POW!  I also made the props for our wipes and Tar Bar.

To your other question to what our goal was .Our goal was to reach out to our local community and share information on what tar is and where it came from. To let the locals know it is a problem and we are willing to help. By selling a product that will take the tar off, as well, as giving some of our proceeds in helping our local wild life. We weren’t looking to expand or for buyers. We were looking for our local business to sell our product in their stores. Such as surf shops, motels, skate boards and any local store on the boulevard. I really think in all, we put our heads together and came up with all this information together. It is really hard to say who exactly said what. We put things on the board and decided everything together in how we were going to present this. I have to say, again this was great working with all this young talent. We really had fun with it.

As far as our hook we had some ideas, we had talked about it before class. Ben was out of the loop on these last ideas we had put together at the last minute. He couldn’t get out of class early, it’s not his fault. That’s why things started the way they did. I’m not putting Ben down. I’m just explaining why it was a little bumpy at first. We were going to go outside and each one of us come in after each skit. That’s why I went to the door and opened it up, I thought we were all going outside. But then Ben started on his skit so we just rolled with it. It worked out. I’m still happy with the way things played out.
