mainly the location, most demos are made away from the studio and if you've ever tried to move a freshly thrown vase, it doesn't work too well. it usually ends up on its side in the back of your car anyway
OK! Throwing Competition! One peace of clay 25 pounds or less, who can throw the, tallest, widest, biggest, cleanest, nicest, best shaped vase! Winner is immortalized on U-Tube forever.

Also when you have an entry subscribe to my Channel and I will add your video.
i liked that.. when i do demos for my friends, like throwing a small necked bottle, plate, or something, i always smash it so they can do it themselves :]
I absolutely love that you destroy your demo pots! It demonstrates a high level of emotional detachment. A very Zen-like experience for a beginner such as myself to observe this level of detachment.
We do a lottery, I do end up finishing a part of them, and those need a home so we pick numbers and each student get a pot. I need to demo glazing and cleaning after firing too.
The demo pots I do for my students I always finish. It is a nice way to show a before and after piece, and encourage kids to finish their pieces. Of course, I am working with grade school kids as opposed to college students like you.
sweet :]

Hello Mr Smith
Thanks very much for that.
I really do enjoy your vids.
Can you tell me what clay body that was.
I suspect porcelain.
The reason for that is that you took special care in the building and it seemed to cost you more effort than usual.
