Being Emcee
Since my previous school, I have been an emcee for about maybe I could say five times. It has been a pleasure for me to be the master of ceremony. Seriously I want to say here, I love to talk, especially talking about funny things. It will make others laugh and they love me when I tell jokes. Tell me who does not love jokes. So, for me there are two types of emcee. One is for formal ceremonies, such as prize giving ceremonies, graduation, sports day or assembly and another one is for informal ceremonies, for examples birthday parties, wedding ceremonies and more.
If you ask me which one I like, of course I will choose the informal one. Being a master of ceremony for informal occasions is way better and easier than the formal one. If it is formal occasion, you have to follow the protocol as it involves very important persons (VIP) and most probably are they were boring and I am very sure they hate that protocol as much as I do. In an informal occasion, for example I gave just now, birthday party, there will be lots of kids and I can interact with them without any circumstances. Besides, I do not have to talk based on the protocol and I can put some jokes in my emcee’s text.
When we talk about text, I think it is compulsory for an emcee to have it. Even professional emcees have it while conducting a ceremony. Text is totally important as it helps emcees during having difficulties while conducting the ceremony. Let say in the middle of the ceremony, we forget about what we are supposed to say that time and we start to give a weird sound like “emmm”, “errrr” and at last everyone in that ceremony stare at you waiting for you to say something. At this time, text is very important as it helps you to know the flow and the consequences of event.
So, that is what I thought about being emcee. What are yours? Currently, I had been conducted two ceremonies. Both were a formal events but I enjoyed conducting them. The first one was a race event and the other one was a Japanese speech contest. I loved both of them and I am looking forward to conducting another event, a way bigger event.
