Part 1- Potential Plan/ Brainstorm for Multimedia Essay

With my final essay, I am thinking about not only including photos but also videos to help get my points and arguments across to the reading when they are having a look at my essay. Last class we looked at examples from Wired.com and other websites that had multimedia written essays. Those essays were very inspiring. I think that I will take the idea of beauty being expressing ones self in their own way, maybe with make up, or tattoos, or find other ways people express themselves through themselves/ the way that they look, and incorporate it into video examples that help the reader to understand what it is that they are reading about. Some sources I may use may be make up commercials for example. When I plan to cite those on my works cited page, I will go to websites on the internet that help do it for me, but I will also use my Little Seagull and They Say I Say, books to make sure I’m Citing the right sources in the correct form that they are supposed to be in.

Part 2- Outline For Peer Review

In my third prompt I plan to first write about what I see as beauty and why it is beautiful to me. Then I will connect that to art in saying that they are both ways to express yourself. I will connect the two ideas together also saying that we need both of them or maybe how they can both make us happy in life. I will give naysayer arguments that will only help make my points stronger because I will have points for them too. And I will conclude by basically summing up all that I wrote and connect it to my main idea/thesis of the paper. Throughout the paper I will use the space mode of communication combined with my videos and photos that I will pick to help the reader connect and understand my ideas.

Along with videos and photos that I find to go with/ back up my arguments in my essay I will be using:

What is Art For?” by The School of Life

“La Bella Vita” by John Armstrong

Taylor William’s “Let’s Talk about Art” project

    I think this is great, you have basically you whole idea as to what you want to do planned out! I think by using commercials of what beauty is a great way to express what society thinks beauty is. Then when you talk about what you think is beautiful and why you think it is a good for expressing your own thoughts and backing up your claims. Stay on track and I think everything will be smooth sailing!
