If you're looking for sample clips of how not to do it, go no further than the BBC Parliament Channel during the party conference season - if you can bear to sit through one dire speech after another.
Its apparently random editing as the picture switches from speaker to audience also throws up the occasional gem - or maybe it's not so random, but is deliberately done to show that some people in the audience have more important things to do than hanging on the speaker's every word.
Tonight I spotted this one, which highlights a problem with mobile phones that's all too familiar to those of us who regularly speak in public.
It also illustrates the kind of response you're likely to get if you're rash enough to use a 5-part list (i.e. none) and the fact that using an autocue doesn't guarantee a brilliant delivery.

Demonstrated that how audience use mobile phones during lectures or conference. But one thing which I did not get is how does this affect to the person who is giving speech? As a distraction? I think it as a signal to improve the speech or make it more interesting.
