How to Speak into a Microphone
Being a good speaker does not mean that you will be able to mesmerise the crowd each time you deliver at the stage. There are a lot of things involved in delivering a speech and they have to click at the same time in order to make it a success.
It does not matter whether you are just talking on the microphone or singing a song in front of thousands of people. Whenever you take the stage, you should have a good level of confidence otherwise things will go out of control.
Even if your confidence is good and you are well prepared to present yourself to the crowd, it does not guarantee you any success. You have to make sure that the microphone being used is functioning properly, so that you can avoid being embarrassed.
Imagine you walk onto the stage in order to deliver a speech and the microphone starts making silly noises whenever you speak into it. This will certainly be a terrible situation and your confidence will be dented badly. Therefore, one has to make sure that all the equipment is working fine.
Other than that, speaking into the microphone is an art itself. If you have observed any professional singers during a live concert, they keep on changing the distance of the microphone from their mouth. The reason is that they control it properly to get a better voice quality.
There are just a few important things, which need to be considered while talking into the microphone and even a kid can follow them easily.
