OBJECTIVE EVALUATION COMMENTS FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS 50% Initial analysis: »is explored thoroughly with attention to specific detail; » clearly identifies defining elements of the text; »articulates moments of intensity and patterns of frequency, contrast, and anomaly; » works to make the implicit explicit. Exceptional Reasonable Minimal Insufficient RHETORICAL ANALYSIS 30% Initial analysis: >> addresses critical elements of context, including author/creator, venue of publication, intended audience, and how those may affect the message being communicated; >>addresses significant elements regarding how ethos (credibility), pathos (empathy/emotions), and logos (logic) are invoked, established, and developed. Exceptional Reasonable Minimal Insufficient ORGANIZATION, STYLE & FORMAT 20% Initial analysis: » crafts paragraphs that cohere and are organized effectively; » demonstrates word choice that is precise and varied; >>exhibits a tone appropriate to analytical, academic genres; » contains very few grammar, punctuation, and spelling errors; »is formatted correctly according to MLA standards. Exceptional Reasonable Minimal Insufficient WHAT IS THIS ASSIGNMENT? The Initial Artifact Analysis assignment asks you to compose a 2–3 page analysis of a cultural artifact, which is to say, any constructed text that carries a message, such as a film scene, speech, photograph, advertisement, poem, short story, song, etc. Performing a close analysis means asking what is being communicated by your artifact and how it is being communicated. This process entails both fundamental and rhetorical moves of analysis in pursuit of the question, to whom does your artifact speak, and how, and why? Please make sure to provide me with access to your chosen artifact (attach the image, link to a website, etc.). WHAT ISN'T THIS ASSIGNMENT? This assignment emphasizes analysis—the act of breaking something down to its key elements and determining how those elements work together to create meaning. This means that the assignment is not just about description and summary. Although description and summary provide important context, this assignment asks you to move beyond summary and engage with specifics, and to pursue possible interpretations, not mere description. This assignment is not about whether you agree or disagree with what you find the artifact communicates, nor is about whether you like or dislike it, or think it should or shouldn't do something. In order to fully observe the finer details and patterns, suspend your initial judgments of "right" or "wrong,” “good” or “bad," and keep your concentration on the evidence at hand. As this is an Initial Artifact Analysis, the objective is not to settle on any central argument. Committing to one angle of interpretation so early in the analysis could limit your ability to ANY TIPS? Pick an artifact that you find interesting, exciting, challenging—something that stimulates your curiosity. Picking something complex will be more enjoyable and engaging in the long run. Support the claims you make with evidence and connect them through clear reasoning. (It's never enough to say that a word or image or color in your artifact "does something"; it's your job to show how and why those elements can be seen as evidence for a particular claim. Don't be satisfied with the obvious or easy analysis. Work to unpack and understand an artifact's complexity, performing analysis again and again, before and while writing.

Initial Artifact Analysis
The artifact selected for this assignment is the Carnival Cruise Commercial that was
published by Jonathan Froes. The video opens with a young girl sleeping. She wakes up hurriedly
and excitedly joins two adults who seem to be her parents in their room, having breakfast in bed.
Through the use of monologue, the audience gets to know that it is on a Thursday and all these
activities happen on the open sea. The first order of business for the young girl is to have a shower,
tiptoe across the Caribbean to have a brunch of a burger, then toured the Grand Cayman alone and
found herself starring in a game show. Amazed by the memorable events, the young girl ends her
day by having linguine as dinner with family. She then goes to bed, as a preparation for another
big day tomorrow.
The creator of the commercial is the Carnival Corporation & plc, an American cruise line
brand that offers cruises to various tourist destinations such as the Caribbean, the Bahamas,
Mexico and other destinations across the globe. The location described in the commercial is the
Grand Cayman Islands, in the Caribbean, a popular cruise destination. The Grand Cayman Islands
are known for their snorkeling, world-class diving, sailing, fishing, sun-bathing on the sandy
beaches, and hiking through unspoiled forests and caves. However, the cruise trip begins from
Galveston, Texas as the commercial indicates at the end that prices start from $329. Therefore, the
intended audience is people seeking to plan a cruise and experience the Cayman Islands. The
audiences are informed to contact their travel professional or visit the Carnival Cruise website to
