Why is it significant to thoroughly research the information which will go in a communication document prior to laying out the document?
Identifying Audience: Why is recognizing audience significant in the writing and editing processes? At what point must you recognize your audience in these processes? Give illustrations of when you recently wrote for two different audiences. What affect did your audience have on your writing?
Audience Awareness Activity: Select three pieces of media communication targeted to three distinct audiences. Use Web sites, online brochures, online promotional pieces, online newspaper articles and other media which are available online. For each and every media communication, write down a 100-word paragraph which identifies the targeted audience of the communication. Examine the elements, written and visual, incorporated to the communication for its particular audience. Describe whether or not these elements are effectual in targeting its audience, and whether you believe the writer of the communication had a clear sense of who the audience is.
