An article’s effectiveness is based on its tone and their different unique styles. In the two articles I comprehended from the movie, Gimme Shelter, the authors used different techniques to produce a different feeling for the readers. There are two main techniques to make an article effective: tone and style. Based on the style, movie review one appears to shows more seriousness and criticism while movie review two is more about informing the readers about the movie. However from tone wise, movie review one is more formal compared the movie review two. The use of tone and style contributes to the effectiveness of the two articles differently. To begin critiquing about movie one, movie review one mainly articulates about the movie summary, movie background, and the amount of effort they put in the movie in order to release it. The author Sandy comprised her movie with professional and serious tone to share her thoughts on this article. First of all, she describe the background of Gimme Shelter. “Inspired by a true story (the actual people are shown during the end credits), Gimme Shelter is a work of gritty social realism that draws from compelling real-life events, but fails to properly explore the many important issues that it raises.” (Screen Rant, Schaefer) As it is explained, Sandy mentioned is it the social issue that solely inspired this film. Second of all, Sandy openly and …show more content…
The reason her writing is more effective is because she shares her own thoughts. Not only that, she also uses a powerful and persuasive voice throughout her writing. Anne’s article aims at the correct way, except her techniques are not strong as Sandy’s. For a betterment, Anne should be more open and express her own thoughts and opinions with honesty like Sandy achieved. Obviously the two articles are both movie reviews. They primarily aim at movie lovers. Overall, they are both excellent articles about an excellent
She seems to have a good understanding of the story and has done a fair share of research to prove her point. She re-evaluates Dee from a different perspective and makes reasonable points; additionally, she uses myriads other writers to back her view of Dee with credible sources. She has included a reference page and she seems to have experience in this field considering she has worked many other stories, as well.
Old Navy is an American clothing and accessories company owned by the corporation Gap Inc. As holiday season approaches, retail stores such as Old Navy hire thousands of seasonal workers to keep speed with the millions of shoppers who are expected to hit the stores during the holiday season. Nearly two days after applying, I got called for an interview then hired for the seasonal position, this not only made me realize that this opening will lead me to gain some experience in retail, but also made me realize that in a way I will be joining a new community and will be part of a team that strives to create an environment that is functional enough
The draft version of the essay is quite offensive, but published version of the essay is entirely defensive. As the reader’s view, these differences are quite clear to
Gimme Shelter is a documentary film that captures the events of the Rolling Stones Tour and the concert at Altamont in 1969. The Rolling-Stones are a popular band that helped defined Rock n Roll music for generations. Members Keith Richards and Mick Jagger’s unique style has been adapted into other films, characters and performances for actors and filmmakers. The events that occurred during the Rolling-Stones tour in 1970 made headlines and showed the world the impact and chaos music can causes when a murder occurred during the events at the concert at Altamont. Gimme Shelter was an opening track of the bands 1969 album Let It Bleed and was written by Richards and Jagger. The song was written during the time period when the Vietnam War “was
For writing , it is the same thing, some writers excel at incorporating lots of data and statistics, while others are experts at getting the audience to feel the same way they do. However, this does not mean that one author is better than another, it just means everyone has their strengths and everyone has their weaknesses. When it comes to the literary works of Nicholas Carr, Clive Thompson, and danah boyd, each author has strategies they could improve upon, but overall, they each composed a successful, effective, and persuasive
Grunge writing as described in Ian Sysons lecture and article Smells Like Market Spirit is to be a fad or marketing ploy to cash in on the grunge scene and to have the same properties and appeal as grunge music, which emerged from Seattle’s underground just before the emergence of grunge writing in Australia. The properties of grunge music are raw sound, distorted guitars, contrasting song dynamics, focus on music, rejection of theatrics, inspired by metal/indie/rock/punk, angst filled lyrics, and an appeal towards the disgruntled youth of generation X. Loaded does not fit into the genre of grunge writing in relation to the description of grunge music.
In his article, he tries to show readers his ideas and concepts with examples. For instance, he chooses example of Nazism when he claims racial differences regard as a cultural perspective from a biological perspective which was disliked causes of Holocaust by Nazism. (Malik 86) He also picks French to explain all people who have common language do not have a common recognition against the world. (Malik 86) These examples are related to his arguments when he claims ineffectiveness of dying language so examples he gives in the article can make his ideas simply because the readers are likely to imagine how the author tries to say ineffectiveness of dying language. Also, these examples are reliable for readers because he uses factual references and examples which is one of the techniques in article “Thinking and Reading Critically”. His idea is strengthened by using this technique. For example, in “Let Them Die”, he says “Today, biological notions of racial difference have fallen into disfavor, largely as a result of the experience of Nazism and the Holocaust”.(Malik 86) Nazism and the Holocausts are very famous institution and event in world history as everyone knows. People are likely to think about how much the author wants to discourage preservation of dying language. These examples show how you can convince people well because factual example can be a reliable evidence, and support claims to make easy to understand for
The tone of a piece of literature is directly dependent upon the word choice with which it is written. Word choice factors into the development of an important idea in the text and how that idea is developed throughout the text. The type of word choice used impacts the way with which both the tone and important ideas are developed in writing. The tone of a piece of literature changes with the word choice of the writer of the piece. If the word choice of the writer conveys a certain feeling or emotion, whether it is happy or sad, the tone will be directly impacted by this and changed accordingly.

It suggested that hurricane Katrina was not a natural disaster, but a disaster that was caused directly by our own government on both local and federal levels. The film wasn’t easy to watch because it showed how people’s lives were destroyed. I felt both anger and sadness while watching the film. There is no doubt that the people in New Orleans were mistreated during hurricane Katrina, and many of them are still living the consequences today. The film covered people from all races, backgrounds and income levels who spoke about the disaster through their own experiences and how it has personally affected them. There were profanity, racial slurs and many frustrations. There were also prayers and music.There was a lot of blame to go around with Hurricane Katrina, but the people of New Orleans showed strength in the face of the disaster. Throughout the film, people talk about the difficulties that they face after Katrina. It was surprising to see that people waited 4 months and longer in some areas for FEMA trailers. In this regard, the film was an eye opener of the lack of support of our own government in New Orleans. While watching the film, I learned about the spirit of New Orleans. It is such a unique place because of its people and culture.
From a structural perspective, movies and novels appear as polar opposites. A film uses actors, scripts, and a set in order to create a visual that can grab and keep the attention of their viewers. However, an author strives to incorporate deeper meaning into their books. Despite these differences in media, 1984 and The Hunger Games present unique, yet similar ideas.
In this essay, I attempted to combine two sources and analyze them each by itself first and then combine it at the end. I think I did a good job analyzing and interpreting what Ellen DeGeneres was saying in her article. This essay was more difficult than the other essays for me because it is hard to apply the examples and try to combine two different sources to make a compare and contrast paper make sense.
...e than emotions when supporting her argument. As one articles tried with evidence and the other with emotions to support their argument, they both lack stronger evidence and did not catch the reader attention that well. There are still more articles to examining on the subject but in the end, I felt Kaminer gave a stronger argument with more evidence and support then Rodriguez.
90’s “Grunge Style” My paper is on grunge style from the 90s, Grunge to me sounds like dirty, messy, filthy, and not really a style. Grunge style it's more of a look , Vintage, clothes you would find at a Goodwill that expressed the Alternative Rock culture of the 90’s. than it is a smell or feeling. Most people have never heard the expressions from the 90s such as: I'm bound and hagged,(staying home on a saturday night) bloated,(drunk) in my wack slacks,(old ripped jeans) swinging on the flippity
