Process Memo

  For my multi modal project, I chose my rhetorical analysis paper to base it off of. I did this

 because I felt I did better on this assignment than any of the other ones and could get the most

meaning out of it as well. The song in this assignment has a deep meaning to it with a negative

tone to the song. This is another reason I chose this assignment to address the issue of bullying

which is a focal point in the song. I think that even though the lyrics as well as the actions in the

song are negative, positive can come from it and that is why I chose this assignment to make a

flyer to send that message. The intended audience I want for this flyer are school students from

middle school even to college. I feel that even though bullying sounds like a term we use for

young children being immature to each other, it can become far more serious when people get

older and still develop a sense of low selfworth.

  !s soon as I figured out what assignment I was going to base my project on, I knew it would

either be a flyer or a poster. The rough draft of this assignment looked more like a poster than a

flyer and I soon reali"ed that it did indeed looked like it could be an advertisement for Foster the

People and just their song, not the meaning behind the song. The flyer was definitely the right

way to go because it can have information and encourages people to act on the topic being

shown to them. This way is much more efficient and can really help anybody having trouble with

something that relates to the topic of the flyer itself. In this case, bullying is a great topic to be on

a flyer because many people have to deal with it on a day to day basis, and just a few kind words

and someone to talk to can make a huge difference in that individual#s life. $ecause of this,

 people have a higher chance of not doing anything such as what the boy does in the song I am

doing this project about.

  This project was easier to do than a written essay because of the use of creativity in a way

that doesn#t just involve words. The flyer is much more visual and is much more appealing than

hearing an essay about the subject. This is the way I view projects and how helpful they are when

they are in any form other than an essay. I am a visual person and I#m sure many people would

agree with me in that argument. The feedback I got was helpful in the sense that my flyer really

didn#t tell people to do anything like it should have in the first place. This is the critical feedback

I needed to see to go back and change my rough draft into something that is more useful to

anybody that would use the flyer to get help with bullying if that is what they were struggling

with. %nowing this, I changed my project and feel confident about it and how it could help

 people.
