Unit 3 Plan

My goal for working on this over break is first gathering articles and or magazines that cover the topics of astrology and religion. Another goal of mine over this break is how I want my layout too look like and to see if I can get my message across.Then try to break down and select on which articles or magazines that I will want a similar outlet too .Maybe even gather videos that I found interesting so then I can work around out it.Think maybe on how I want to set up which includes the visuals, colors, and texts styles.Going through different genre pieces that can correlate to my topic. Brainstorming on how I want to approach my topic. Also I have to think about how I long I want my piece to be so during the break I will probably plan out or write a draft of the following piece for unit 3. Probably going to work on researching more of topic that is astrology and religion and see on what I missed out on so maybe I can then add to my unit 3 project.

Know you Mentor-Text

The tone of the language is for some of the topics are quite opening that might grab the audience attention some of some them are formal and informal very much uses of ethos and logos. The sources uses research from old stories that were posted back in the days or like what is happening as of today in the world even using people thoughts and opinions on certain issues or topics. They mix of outside resources and statistics. The source visual is really colorful and bold and for some of the text they are highlighted or italicized and each of the topic they are talking about correlates an image. The layout of it is really clean and well organized in its place and there is a lot of visuals you can get through and explore on. Its broken in each section so there is about 8 parts and in those parts there is a lot issues that are being explained that is related to the part that they are talking about. For this source that audience selection can be varied because of the topics that are talked there is many so can be target for people into politics, astrology, food, crimes, trends etc. I think this way because since it’s a magazine there will be many issues that are going to shared also they had something that is related to astrology which is something I am researching on so that was great to know.

Know your Publication

There were some pretty good articles on my topic of astrology and religion compatible there were different forms of articles and the way they were present were different from one another. On the site there were many pictures that were presented that caught may attention as well as how they break it down for you in paragraph form. This tells me that their audience is for someone who really wants a deeper meaning to this topic and wants to know if these two are right for one another and also for someone who wants to know if there is anything that can be linked to astrology and be on the same level or page as them. I can draw this conclusion because of how they title and introduce their topic to the audience and also the type of pictures that are used to bring in the audience attention. Usually the pieces are broken down into paragraphs which depending can be about 5-8 sentences and some of the paragraph are labeled for us, so if you want to know about something specific instead of reading the whole thing, go to the section that you need to know and start from there. The tone for these pieces are serious but at the same time casual and trying to connect with their audience. The dictation that is used is formal, academic and understanding. They usually use evidence from data like from ages that are somewhat connected into astrology and religion like millennials to younger generations also some are from back in the centuries since the history of astrology and religion goes way back with each other. The visual presentation for these articles are that some of the pictures are black and white because they were old pictures from back then and some are colored pictures, there is both black, white and colored pictures and each of the pictures has it’s purpose. I think this would be a good publication to reach my intended audience because I want my topic to come off has really simple to understand without it sounding to complicated, because if it’s going to be really long then it will enjoyable to understand and many people won’t like that so getting your point across without making it to difficult to understand is best.
