This is my first time writing a multimodal text in my college experience. I’m pretty worried about how would I do on this since I never did this assignment before. The reason I believe Aydin, Spiegleman, and Satrapi decided to use graphic novels and a film to talk about their historical events with the readers, is to catch the audience or the reader’s attention. These authors believe a way to catch a reader’s or an audience’s attention is to express their important info through art. Some people would rather see a film or a picture than to read a long novel or a historical essay. I also believe the authors wanted to switch up a way to talk about things of instead using a long essay. I believe you can understand either way however, everyone has a different way of understanding things so that could mean seeing things visually or audibly. I believe watching or reading a novel can not affect the way you understand, feel, react to the author’s ideas.
