The show -‐‑ Reviews
‘’Admi'edly, speaking in such an event is a potentially nerve-‐‑wrecking
experience. However, the advantage of working with this particular TEDx
team was that the stage managers themselves were peers or members o f
the college, and they used that particular aspect to make it less
intimidating. We had support and encouragement. We were given specific
instructions that helped greatly with knowing where to stand for lighting
(such as the red dot on the stage), and I felt like it was managed and
produced very smoothly and efficiently. We were given ample time to be
familiar with the stage, so when the time came, I knew exactly what to
do.’’ – Ganavya Doraiswamy
‘’Technically, the event went smoothly for me. It could have been very tricky because
of all the equipment and set up involved in my presentation. What I am most
thankful for is that once I made it clear, the specific nature of my set up, and the
potential for mishaps if a particular procedure wasn'ʹt followed, all involved quite
respectfully stuck to the plan and this made for a very successful and uneventful
presentation.’’ – Michael Sean Harris
