Address the following questions in your analysis:
Who is the intended audience for this text (or for your text)?
What specific multimodal strategies did the creators use to reach out to that audience?
Which of the five modes are being used in this text? How are they being used together with other modes?
What are three ways that the chosen modes (or combinations) are successful and make the text engaging and convincing to their audience?
What are three ways that the chosen modes don't work well, or fail to engage the audience, or could be much better, or fail to convince the audience?
Why did you choose this text and why do you like it?
