Watching other presenters

Now it is time to cherry-pick the best bits from lots of presenters as inspiration.

We have looked at what makes presenters particularly great at what they do in theory, now lets take a look at some presenters in action.

This video introduces lots of our astronomy team at the Royal Observatory Greenwich talking about our YouTube channel. You can see that even though a lot of what we do day to day is very similar, everyone has a very different style and approach to how they present.

After you have watched the video, think about presenters you have come across and think are especially great. They could work in TV, radio, a museum or your organisation. Think about what it is about them engaging to watch and listen to.

Post your favourites on the Padlet wall to share them with others on this course. Remember to tell us why you have chosen them.
