REDESIGN REFLECTION

1.    1.   I felt worried about going into this assignment for different reasons. The biggest reason was to going to write 5-7 pages. This is a lot of pages to write about on an advertisement. I was also concerned with coming up with new ideas and finding ways to expand them.

2.   2.    I did not really have a choice to pick on an ad because there were not that many interesting ones in S.I. I should have bought in my own magazine or looked at ads before going into class. It was my fault because I was not prepared. I just chose this ad because it seemed easy and it had information that could help me with my essay.

3.     3.  I was not sure how to redesign my essay but my peer group helped me come up with an idea. They told me about the idea and then I sketched it into my mind a piece at a time.

4.     4.   A challenge I faced at the beginning was finding the ethos, pathos, and logos. I had to look up and find examples which helped me generate my own ideas about them.

5.      5.  One thing I liked about my assignment was it was a Sports Illustrated magazine. I love to read about sports and athletes. I used this advantage by applying both of these aspects to my ad.

6.      6. I have a better outlook with ethos, pathos, and logos. In the past I have learned of these things but I had forgotten what all three meant prior to this project. This project reminded me what all three of these meant.

7.       7. If I was given a second chance I would pick a better ad that I have liked more. I would also try to learn how to use Photoshop so that my redesign picture would be more professional like.
