Composer Statement

For project three I decided to compose a brochure. The brochure consist of information about the College Of Human Science at Florida State University. Incorporating important content for my genre composition wasn’t hard. I first went to the Florida State College of Medicine website and found important information that I thought my audience would be most concern with. After adding the information to my brochure I cited the website. The audience that intended the brochure to be for was incoming freshman that’s looking in to pursing a career in this field of science. Even though these are the audience whom I intended the brochure to be for other audience could find it very useful. The main purpose for communicating with incoming freshmen with this brochure is to inform them on what the next four years will be like majoring in the College Of Medicine. I got this information from “FSU College of Human Sciences.” College of Human Sciences, humansciences.fsu.edu/the-college /.This brochure is something that they could have on hand to help guide them through a process that’s new to them. The content that’s within the brochure is the different departments that the College Of Medicine offer, the statics within the departments, history about the college, Major and degrees statics and more background information on these. This information came from the same website but in different tabs, “College History: FSU College of Human Sciences.” College of Human Sciences, humansciences.fsu.edu/the-college/college-history/.  I also have pictures of things that connects with the college and of the dean “Gregory Harris”. I also included important people other than Gregory Harris, such as the advisors and other people that can help them when needed. This brochure is to give a clear perspective on something that’s all new to incoming freshmen. Using rhetorical apparels to connect with my audience wasn’t  really hard but I didn’t use all three because it wouldn’t match my composition. I used Logos (logic) by just informing them on some stuff that they may not have already known. My brochure was more on the informative said so using Pathos (emotion) didn’t go as plan because I couldn’t really connect with their emotions. I can argue that I connected with my audience emotion by making them feel happy or upset about their major they decided to choose, whether the like it or not. Showing them the true meaning of Human Science and all the components that make it up can make them love or hate their new profession. Ethos (Trust),  I explain in the brochure the process of pursuing a career in the Human science field and gave more important information, this connect with Ethos because the audience have to trust that my information is legit to base their new career off of. All these was an important part to include in the brochure because it’s important that I had all three of the rhetorical apparels when discussing or showing my brochure to my audience. Features that makes this genre recognizable is all the fields that makes up this college and the information that’s provide in the brochure helps distinguish from the other college that’s similar to the College Of Human Science and hard to tell which is which. On the other hand features that make this brochure or genre composition recognizable to others is the way a brochure is normally set up. The regular front and back tri fold style is how my brochure is set up. The only difference that may be questionable is how I set my pictures up, I don’t have them set up next to the information on my brochure only because I felt that the information is the main focus of my component and the pictures is just to give a little visual on what I basically informed them on in the brochure. All together the brochure is a good informative/ visual way to help incoming freshmen to navigate their way at the College Of Human Science.
