My Four Letter Word...HAIL

For my project I used one true media. Unfortunately I can not post the link to my project, because one true media will not let me.

     My four-letter word was hail. I chose hail, because there are many different ideas that came to mind. My argument is that hail is a word that can be used for "good" or "bad". I used my project as more than an argument. I really wanted to make an impact on the audience. I chose to put the "good" images for hail in the beginning of the video with Bach's Ave Marie playing in the background. These images included: Virgin Mary, Hail Mary Pass, and people bowing. I did this to mellow out the audience so they would not expect what is to come. Half-way through the video, I switched the music to a song by the band As I Lay Dying and displayed "bad" images for the word "hail". These images included: storms, Hitler, and damaged cars. I wanted to show people how fast meanings can be changed, and how words have more than one meaning.
