Laura Lalla, U3 Genre

I decided to create a brochure because it best suits my topic, which is about standardized testing. When completing a brochure, the paragraphs are long and have a lot of images to them as well. When people are reading a brochure, there is mostly writing present rather than photos and it consists of many pages for more writing for the overall piece. Brochures produce imagery because photos are involved, creating a sense of mood and more thoughts. Brochures are written from the reader’s point of view. In this type of genre, dialogue is not used; it is just one person talking in this written piece. The tone is professional and straightforward. The purpose of a brochure is to be informative and bring awareness to a specific topic. A brochure is organized into five parts, includes images, defines who your audience is, and determines what information needs to get across. Brochures typically take 20-30 minutes to read, depending on how informative it is in length,
