An acronym that stands for “Pauses Inflection Smile Movement Audience”. It reminds a performer or someone demonstating something to an audience to incorporate theses elements in their performance. It simple to remember yet links to deeper ideas. See below for an explaination of each term. Vary your voice pace and time. Don’t just talk constantly at the audience. Use strategic pauses and inflections to convey meaning and interest the audience. Smile. It will help your audience (and you) enjoy the demonstration. Don’t be so focused on what you have to say and do that you forget to smile. Have fun! Movement. Be deliberate. Don’t just wonder around the stage or stay in one spot. Use all the stage. Use specific parts. Come forward where appropriate. The audience is not something amorphous blob nor should you forget them. Look at individuals. Interact with them where you can.
