How to Deliver Great Presentations Outtake & Blooper Reel

Earlier in 2015, Felicia Slattery and I had the opportunity to spend three days in the Peachpit Press studios in San Francisco to record a video series on behalf of Pearson Publishing. Part of their Live Learning series, the 6-hour video training is called “How to Create and Deliver Great Presentations.” We shot a lot of video in order to produce six hours of top-quality training. But we had fun creating the videos. A LOT of fun. In fact, we had so much fun that our producer ended up providing us with an outtake reel which cracks me up. I think you’ll enjoy it as well. And now, I present you with our NOT-so-great moments that didn’t make the cut. Enjoy!
