Chosen Topic What topic have you settled on, and why?

I have chosen my topic to be about musician Marilyn Manson. I have chosen to write about him because I feel like he has been misunderstood his whole life. I feel that people need to really find out who he really is before they make a decision about him. He is not just a freak that people usually categorize him to be.

What audience(s) and purpose(s) might you design this project?

My purpose is to show how successful Manson has become. Also to prove that just cause he sings and dresses a certain way doesn’t make him a bad person. The audience will be more focused on people who have negative views on him.

What sources might you draw on?

I am going to try and use as many different sources as I can. I feel that there is so much information out there about Marilyn Manson. I will first try internet, book, and interviews as sources for my project.

What genres might you use to represent your work?

My genres are not exactly set in stone yet. But I think that I can use a newsletter, a cd cover, a flyer. Basically things that refer to music.
