CH - Evaluation of our pitch

We presented our pitch to the class, working from the information and research we had collected prior and arranged in a presentation (link to which below). The pitch itself was a success in my opinion, with positive feedback which supported our current research (concerning audience interest and possible topics to follow up further, such as a different project title to our original 'Chase', now 'Drop Dead Gorgeous).
The pitch was nerve wracking, because we had decided that by simply evaluating the information beforehand, we would have enough to present a well thought out and more personal pitch without relying on boring or dull scripts. I felt that this reliance on our public speaking skills alone helped build confidence within our group; we managed to put across our ideas in a manner that seemed to be appreciated, with a more personal edge as we were able to speak more freely one-to-one with the audience, improvising if they began to become uninterested or confused; theoretically speaking, we tried to build our pitch around the audience.
The pitch just ran over the 10 minute time base, including questions that we were able to answer to a suitable degree; the video of which is embedded upon this blog. I think to improve our pitch, we should have spent more time on the aesthetics of the presentation, so as to maximise the overall apperance and proffesionalism. I was concerned with our PP slides becoming too full or childish, so I decided on a minimalistic view; however, a colour scheme or basic design scheme could have been implimented.
Overall, I think that our pitch showed that our idea was well recieved and had enough viable audience research to implement further development.
