Rhetorical Analysis of the Twilight New Moon Trailer

It only took one sentence of the first Twilight book to get me to read all of them. I have never been a person that has been into books, but the Twilight Saga changed all of that for me and it has not only changed that, but also the fact that fiction stories never bring my hopes up and make me wonder. Everytime I read a ficition book I know it is all imagination and I never get in to it, but their was something in the Twilight books that had me thinking and hoping for different things. I have a sister who is 23 years old and she must be the shiest and most down to Earth person I know, but these fiction books got her mind running too. After reading all the books we both saw the first Twilight movie together and now we saw the second. The trailers are just amazing! Especially the love ones like the one I uploaded, hopefully you have watched it.

Stephanie Meyer the author of the Twilight Saga is one of my favorite authors especially because this all started by a dream of hers. As all of you may wonder, why I am so obsessed with this trailer? Well this love trailer does not only show us a bit of love, but also temptation, charms, seductiveness and protecion. It is just an avoidable trailer and this is just a little heads up on how no one is able to pick who we fall in love with. This trailer makes me so excited everytime I see it because it just makes me want to love someone and feel the protection the girl (Bella Swan) must feel when her boyfriend (Edward Cullen) is telling her that he "feels his job is to protect her".

This trailer catches the attention of every type of audience. It doesnt matter if you are old, young, married or single, this love trailer fits to everyone because no matter how your real life is, their is always space to let yourself feel how anyone can be protected and loved. At the same time, the music in the background is low and gives signs of possible drama, it is also a sound that makes it very tempting to public to go and watch the movie as same as the words. The wording in this trailer is intriguing and very rousing. The filmmaker wants viewers to watch this engaging trailer which has an obvious amount of connection with the books that have become extremely famous. I find that this trailer leans more into the pathos category becuase their is always sadness in love. As we see in the trailer Edward Cullen fears to lose her and that is why he wants to protect her, and she has hope in the relationship, their are several mixed emotions. We can also see how their has to be a secondary "hidden" function of fear, complications and drama in their relationship. Finally, this is my favorite trailer because it makes me shiver everytime I see it, I get this sense of hope in love, passion and in how it is out there for everyone to find.

Liberty and Meaning

Writing an essay should be about expressing your feelings and being able to have the liberty to put it in paper. I feel that the difference between high school and college is that in college we write with more of a meaning and with freedom of speech while in high school we write just about what has been asked to write. In high school each essay instruction comes with rules on how the teacher wants the paper to be written and the only point that sticks out every time they grade it is if the student has followed the instructions. I always felt it was not necessary to follow all the steps the teacher asked for and decided to go my way and write with meaning and liberty.
What I mean by writing with a meaning is that when I write a paper I like to relate the assignment with what is going on in the world or in my life. I am writing with thought and with feelings, I am not just writing because I have to, I also put more time in the paper. In all my years in school I have only written to a public audience which was my classroom once. This was a couple of years ago when my teacher assigned a paper to write about the moment that impacted our lives the most. This was a paper with absolutely no rules or instructions, it was said that we could write free even with no format. That was a time in my life where I was going through a lot because my really close uncle had recently died, so I decided to write a really long and meaningful paper about how his death had impacted and changed my life. This paper was a success in my classroom and in my family because I was allowed to write about how I felt with no rules. I felt that expressing how I was feeling at that time and everything that was happening around me in a paper was going to take it out of me. The only time I ever shared a paper with an audience was that time and some of my classmates responded by crying with me, it was a really emotional moment. Writing a paper is about being able to make people smile and cry and to write until you feel you can. It should never be assigned with limitations and rules.
