Artist Statement-
My intended audience consists of young individuals or Cuny students. Global hunger is the issue I chose for my audience because it is something that few people discuss, yet it is something that everyone should be aware of. because millions of people die each year just because they do not have enough food to consume Many individuals are unaware of this subject. I picked them as my target audience since it would allow them to read a short and simple text. The facts I supplied will be relevant to people’s lives and the terrible condition that millions of people face on a daily basis. Every night, around 811 million people go to bed hungry.And nothing has been done to address this big crisis, and according to the UN, if we don’t take any efforts to fix this issue now, the number of hungry people will more than double by 2030. The information I obtained is designed to enlighten and make my audience aware of this scenario since my audience is cuny students, most of them are in their youth, and I feel that if youth take a step to solve this global disaster. Then we will be able to resolve this problem.
For unit 3, I plan to create a photo essay that will be published as a short newspaper article because I believe it is the best way to reach the most cuny students and young people to educate them on my topic of global hunger, and it is simple to capture the interest of people of young ages with a picture essay. In a brief piece, I will present a range of images and data about hunger issues and explain them well. Because it competes for space in the newspaper, a newspaper article is generally brief and to the point, depending on the subject. The most significant information comes first, followed by the details.It also generally includes visual references such as graphs or graphics to assist the reader in understanding. It will also take little time to read, which will benefit the reader if they have a lot of work and little leisure time. I feel that most people who are just starting out do not follow the news or read many books because they do not have the time. The news story would be on Canva and would not be removed without cause. They may come across news stories and other resources while researching their career on the internet.Short paragraphs, columns of text, pictures, quotations, and the writer’s interpretation are some of the characteristics of the news piece about world hunger.
This, I feel, this is the most successful method for reaching cuny students.
I contemplated doing a YouTube podcast video or a TikTok at first because most of the cuny students are young and spend the majority of their time on social media. As a result, I was considering doing a YouTube podcast video or a TikTok video. But when I was recording the YouTube podcast, I realized that my narration sounded terrible, and I didn’t like it this way since I tried so many times and each time it got worse, and I’m afraid that if I publish it, no one would be interested in watching the entire video. Then I opted against making a YouTube video.I feel I lack the necessary skills to create videos or podcasts. I attempted to produce a TikTok video, but the problem was that I couldn’t make a film longer than 3 minutes, which I believe is insufficient for my tale. And I doubt I’d be able to generate anything good through YouTube or TikTok videos. As a consequence, I decided to write an essay or a short article for my audience that featured visuals and data regarding the topic I chose. And in that piece, I used more graphics and statistics than words because my audience would not be interested in reading the entire article if I used long sentences.to improve it and make it more interesting I went through a lot of works that are comparable to my theme; I generally used images from Google, but I also acquired some through social media. I used Canva, an online project creator, to create this post. I found this web site canva to be really useful and easy to use. I didn’t find anything difficult to create or manage, and I feel this is set up everything so conveniently. I utilized the canva temples in my article, as well as certain effects that make my essay more exciting to read.
