Fracking VideosAnalysis Paper
Hello I have a professional reading and writing assignment. Please use academic words
Watch these three videos first and ask yourself: what is the purpose? who is the audience?
Video 1
Animation of Hydraulic Fracturing (fracking) (Links to an external site.)
Video 2
How does fracking work? – Mia Nacamulli (Links to an external site.)
Video 3
Fracking 101: Why why fracked gas is dirty and dangerous (Links to an external site.)
Instructions
For each video, analyze purpose:
- What do you think the purpose is?
- What specific visual or textual elements of the work suggest the purpose you have identified?
For each work, analyze audience:
- Identify primary/secondary audiences, as appropriate
- Identify all relevant audience characteristics and categories for each audience (i.e., knowledge level, personality, biases, etc.)
- Explain your reasons for characterizing the audience the way you do (i.e., What’s your evidence from the video for your conclusions?).
Compare the three analyses:
- Are the purposes the same for each work? Different? How do you know?
- Are the audiences the same for each work? Different? How do you know?
- What are your final thoughts on the trustworthiness and credibility of these sources?
