Nonverbal Analysis

When analyzing Al Pacino's Inspiration Speech on YouTube, I watched a bunch of great concepts that were used from chapter 8. Al Pacino has the physical appearance of a coach. He has the physical appearance as someone that has power as well as wisdom. He says things about his life past the helps relate to the guys playing on the team. You can see from the body language of the players that they are understanding and relating to what Al has to say. He also uses great Kinesics when giving his speech. His hand movements and gestures to give the players a visual of when he says "an inch" or "claw for that inch." His immediacy towards getting them pumped is outstanding. He raises his voice at the right times to help climax the speech.
