Delivery and Style Analyzed


In this blog posting I am analyzing a blog post, scholarly article and a newspaper article. All three are centered on film but have very different styles and deliveries. The film blog posting begins with a film, “Twin Peaks.” The blog then analyzes the film. This posting was styled more analytically about the actual art form than either the scholarly article or the newspaper article. The newspaper article spoke of an upcoming local event. This article was informative and targeted a specific audience that would go to the film event. The article also has a persuasive tone. The blog was not persuasive but was aimed towards an audience that knew much about film. There were also personal opinions and quotes contained in the blog posting. The blog had a serious and intimate tone. I believe that the tone was meant to start conversations between viewers. The Film was analyzed thoroughly. Readers could relate in how they viewed the film and what the meaning of the film held for them. This made the piece intimate. The scholarly article focused on the history of film. This article was dry and informative. All of the articles are informative but differ greatly in content; although the main theme is film. The blog was honest, the newspaper was persuasive and the scholarly article was dry.
