As a reminder…
Audience is the person or people who will be reading your essay, or in this case, viewing the video.
Tone is how something is said in a piece of writing. Is it formal or informal? How does the author/speaker express their attitude?
Purpose is your reason for writing. Is it to entertain, to persuade, to analyze, or to describe?
Keep in mind, using your annotating tips is important. If you are viewing the video, you can click underneath the video where it says “Transcriipt” to view/print the conversation in order for you to annotate.
As with every academic paper you write, this paper should be double spaced, 12-point font and Times New Roman.
