Article Plans

I have created an article plan for each of my three articles, in this plan I have decided the narrative, stylistics I will use etc.

ARTICLE:
Apple Products
Piracy
Grand Theft
Auto 5
article genre
(purpose, type)
This article is also going to be a review however I will be looking at certain Apple Products their strengths and weaknesses as well as this I will be also looking at how these products have changed the modern day and took an impact on other companies and what their products. 
This article is going to be and Expose, in this article I am going to be informing my audience about a serious issue (Piracy). Also in this article I am going to talk about a lot of things surrounding the issue E.g. the people who illegally download things, how they do it and what people are doing to stop people illegally downloading things.
This article is going to be a review of Grand Theft Auto 5 in my article I am going to highlight strengths and weaknesses of the game. Also I am going to include background information of the game makers as well as including an anecdote.
Narrative voice 
(1st, 2nd or 3rd person)
In this article I will be mainly speaking in 3rd person as I am going to be reviewing Apples products but I will include some 1st and 2nd person e.g. “we think” or “you should”. At the end in my conclusion of Apple products I will use first person as I will be writing an overall review of what I think.
I will be using a range of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person in this article but mainly second as this may not be something all readers want to read and using 2nd person narrative ill help make the reader feel more involved.
In this article I will be talking mostly in 3rd person as I am reviewing the game and that will be my main focus in the article, however some 1st and second person will be used as this will help keep my readers interest in the article also speaking in 1st and 2nd person will help build my magazines relationship with my target audience.
Register
(informal/formal, colloquial, dialect, taboo words?)
This article is also going to be very formal like the other 2 as I am reviewing products in detail. The sentences may be shorter as I am going to be looking at a wide range features good and bad ones however as they are shorter I will include more of them.
This article is going to be very formal as it is about a serious issue what should be given thought from my readers and I think using a stern tone throughout will make them take it serious. I will be using the most dialect language.
This article will be mostly formal as I am informing them about the game and also talking about information surrounding the makes of it. I am going to add some informal and colloquial language throughout my article as I think this will be something different from what other review articles do
Stylistics
(repetition, strong verbs, adjectives, alliteration, similes, metaphors, sentencing, rhythm)
The sentences will tend to be shorter and the paragraphs I am going to use will be the same as I don’t want my audience to feel like they are reading a lot of information as they can lose interest easily if this is the case.
This article will include a lot of long sentences and paragraphs as I am going to be talking about a very serious issue so taking this approach is one which will suit the style of the article a lot.
In this article there will use longer sentences and paragraphs as I am going to be describing good and bad features about the game in a lot of detail in this article I will also include verbs to try and make the reader feel more involved about what they are reading.
Tone of address
(hectoring, sarcastic, ‘matey’, ironic, etc)
In this article I am going to simply be describing the products to my target audience rather than chatting to them about it.
This article will be in a serious tone because of the topic however I will include some humor to keep my target audience interested in what they are reading.
This article will be mostly wrote in a serious tone as the article is a description of the product, I will also be including some humor as the game is very popular with a lot of people in the same age gap as my target audience so they will understand the humor that I will include.

Structure and pace
(discourse structure, logical paragraphing, connectives, conclusion)
This article will have some structure as I will start the article with and introduction and end it with a conclusion but the main part of my article I am going to have a range of information all surrounding Apple and their products. My paragraphs are going to more short than long and the style is going to be simply talking about specifications of the products, also I will add an over conclusion about the company and their products.
This article will have logical paragraphing for example I will look at who the most common people are too illegally download things off then internet then I will go onto look at who the people are stopping the issue, I will use a range of connectives so that all my paragraphs flow rather than jumping from paragraph to paragraph.
This article will include a range of discourse makers, as it will move from a range of subjects surrounding the game. It will have a logical ordering and I will use a range of connective so that the article flows. The length of each paragraph may differ depending on which feature of the game I am concentrating on. At the end of the article I will include a conclusion, which will include my opinion of the game.
