Negative Effect: When a person first walks into the cramped "L" shaped bedroom, they first need to open up the dirty white door with the rusty doorknob. Moving forward there is an oversized, unmade bed with tons of blankets, a pink carpet, and dog stains that makes it look like water was splashed all over the room. To the right, there are a bunch of bins, and a clothing rack. It looks like the room is cramped together, which causes the room to look smaller than it really is. It looks like a potential episode of “Hoarders,” the TV show, or a consumer prison with all the endless wants and needs of too many “new” clothes and things. To the left there is an overfilled dresser where the clothes in the drawers are popping out like popcorn in the microwave. In the closet, there is a broken purple laundry basket that has scantily clad high heels in it, and two more bins along with that, making the closet seem more cluttered. The walls are painted a dull white color, with butterfly wallpaper in the middle, and a boring white trim that seems everlasting as it goes around the room. Below that is a purple wall color that looks like "Barney the purple dinosaur.” There are piles of clothes on the floor, that are as tall as the Rocky Mountains out west of the United States. The pictures on the wall are dull and need color. Faith, Love, Laugh are in tan letters that don't match the walls at all. There is a Bret Michael’s poster hanging that looks like a five year old made it, but in truth an adult made it. There is a big black dusty television and a chair with the wood frame falling apart, in the corner of the room. By the window there is a tan wooden desk that isn't steady, and a big black computer chair. The chair squeaks so loud that the room below can hear it. When the cocker spaniels from downstairs begins barking, it puts a thorn in the ear of anyone staying in this room. It doesn’t matter if they are trying to sleep like a baby, or just trying to do homework. If you listen closely you can hear the highway with very loud trucks and cars that are passing by. When you look up at the ceiling at the bright lights, you will notice all of them are working except for one. When a stink bug gets burned in the lamp it leaves an odor of rotten eggs and the smell of an outhouse combined. The temperature can either be frosty cold like the titanic after the ship sank in the water, or so stinking hot like summer days.
Positive Effect: A person first needs to open up the white door with the antique doorknob. They walk into the "L" shaped cozy bedroom. It looks like the room is inhabited by a person who has a passion for clothing, and she must live in a fashion statement world. You will see the pink carpet, as you make your way to the big comfortable bed. There is a clothing rack that has seven bins behind it for optimal storage, and to the left you will see an antique brown dresser. As you look in the closet you will see a well-loved purple laundry basket that has sexy high heels in it, and two more bins with even more beautiful clothes. The walls are painted with a white heavenly color with butterfly wallpaper in the middle. There is a trim that goes around the room, and on the bottom of it has a purple lavender color. It looks like something straight out of a Martha Stewart catalogue. Sitting in the comfortable bed, a person would have easy access to the piles of clothing on the floor. “Faith, Love, Laugh” are in tan letters, hanging on the wall and there is also an abstract Bret Michael poster. You will also see a big black TV that you can view like a window to the world, and a chair in the corner that can make you warm like a warm glass of milk. A tan wooden desk sits by the window with a cozy black chair that hugs you while doing homework. The sound of the highway and cocker spaniels barking downstairs can provide a white noise for doing paperwork and reading. All the lights are working but one, which still gives ample lighting. The room has a fresh outdoor scent except for on the occasion when a stink bug comes in not invited. The temperature of the room can range from being cool to sultry.
Section 3 When I begin this class, I didn’t know what “Angle of Vision” meant. If had to explain to someone what “Angle of Vision” means I would say “estate tax” vs. “death tax”. A person inheriting an estate would refer to it as a “death tax” mainly because they don’t want to pay it. What I learned in this class is to view media critically to understand why it is giving the message that it is. I now understand why certain words are used to describe events and appearances. I really don’t pay attention to current events as much as I should. I honestly feel a bit overwhelmed by the various options for news. It’s like watching a soap opera when I missed the first episode. Whenever I pick up the newspaper or watch the news I will be aware that much of the news is bias. A bias is a tendency or inclination that prevents an unprejudiced consideration of a topic. A lot of news favors a Republican or Democrat side, most everything now is bias. I will be asking myself these questions from now on. For advertising, newspapers, TVs new channels if I ever have the time to. What are they trying to sell? What is the reasoning behind the article? Just plain Why? What is the current issue? I used different word connotations to describe the different things in the room: the words cozy versus cramped or Sultry versus hot. To angle my vision I used analogies to exzadurate various elements in the room. The temperature of the room could be warm like a glass of warm milk or cold like the water after the Titanic sank. So can the cozy and the cramped. I also used hyperbole to describe the barking cocker spaniels as a thorn in my ear.
