The video I chose is of a woman demonstrating how to make a perfect at home omelet. I liked how she stared her speech by explaining why she is demoing. The reason for her demo was that not a lot of people know how to make a good omelet at home. It was a nice way to start the speech and give a little background on why she is demonstrating. After the brief intro she goes right into step one: gather all ingredients. She does a nice job of showing the ingredients and describing what to use. It is also nice that she lists other possible ingredients that you can use based on your preference and what you like. At one point she stutters a little bit and it is slightly awkward; this could have been avoided because it looks like it was made at home. If I was giving this speech, I would have explained how to crack an egg because it is quite possible that the person watching this video has never cracked an egg before. With most of her other steps though, she includes a nice description of what she is doing and why. Also, she lists common faults people make when making an omelet which give the viewer a heads up to not make those same mistakes. At one point, she says that she is checking the egg to see if it’s ready and she skims her spatula over the egg but she doesn’t really describe what she’s testing; a clearer description may help the viewer to decide when to flip the egg. Her conclusion is good because she reiterates the main steps in making an omelet but she could do without the awkward eating bit, it just wastes time and it’s not really necessary.
