Nonverbals of T.V. Courtroom Verdicts
This poster shows our predictions on how the t.v. courtroom cases verdict would be based on nonverbal cues displayed. Our assumptions will be based on deception cues learned from the book Nonverbal Behavior in Interpersonal Communications by Virginia P. Richmond.

Genre Criticism of Acceptance Speeches
Acceptance speeches come in many different forms. Actors have thanked God; the people who helped them achieve their goals or celebrated their excellence. Enough speeches have been heard to create a general format of what makes an acceptable speech. Lupita Nyong’o gave a speech that fell within certain parameters of “acceptance format” while still breaking new ground. Generic criticism will show how her speech stands out among the many & why it is so special. Not only to Hollywood Actors but to anyone who has a dream. Proving that “no matter where you’re from, you’re dreams are valid”.
