worthwhile? who will say it? How will it be stated?

During "skit" we don't have any N/A
music, for it would only distract the

After, we have inspirational music, the 3 dudes act all surprised and freaked out, CU of the dudes

they talk about space. blah blah ”it’s a house, just find another”, bulldozer leaves
and then the 3 dudes see that the whole neighborhood is
The 3 dudes skit destroyed.

destroyed forest fades in.
Liam: yeah it's pretty cool dudes
Jacob: pretty cool indeed
*Bulldozer noises*
John: What’s that noise
*Bulldozer enters the room*
Dudes yelling scared, then they settle
down.
Liam: What the frick dude, why did ya

Franciscndo: We need the materials
and the land.
Liam: But this is my house you can’t

*Breaks the rest of the wall*
Cool music that fits into the shot of
all the houses destroyed.
Jacob: You wouldn’t like this, broski,
but this is what’s happening to all the
animals in the rainforests, as well as
the native people.
II. Body: Zoom in on the "Community in Crisis"

What research will you use to develop Ethos/Logos/Pathos:
Examples, details, statistics, images, music, "voices" (who is speaking/quoted?)

Despite their immense value, since
the 1960s, nearly half of the world’s
rainforests have been lost. Every day,
about 81,000 hectares (200,000
acres) of rainforest — an area nearly
14 times the size of Manhattan — are
burned around the world.
III. Conclusion: Lasting Impression
Transition with a reworded thesis (Usually used to signal the end of the piece):
Call to action Ideas:
● Provide a number, #, website the audience can visit for more information, to donate, or to do something
● Develop a slogan to help the audience recall your product/service
● End using rhetoric: pathos/ethos/logos – which would be most effective?
● Music develops pathos!
