Name:   Comm101, Sec. #:   Date:   Grade: ____ / 50 Audience Analysis: Answer in complete sentences and use examples from your audience analysis questions.

A. How much does your audience already know about your topic and how will you design your speech regarding their level of knowledge?

The audience probably only knows about Marilyn Manson from the media and or the few songs they’ve heard of his on the radio. They most likely know that he is a controversial individual. I won 't go too deeply into his life, but rather just describe the basics of what he is about and why he is inspiring.

B. How
Attention: How can someone who is 44 and middle-aged be a menace to the United States? Probably because he is known as a Satan-worshipper, animalsacraficer, and a bixsexual corrupter of the youth. This 44 year old, middle aged man is Marilyn Manson. 

B. Give Audience Incentive to Listen: Marilyn Manson does have a bad reputation, but the lyrics of his music and his ideas have much more of a stand than what the media says about him (majority believe media does not portray individuals correctly).

C. Establish Credibility: The first time I ever heard his music, I was immediately hooked. Most people don 't like him, thought I would give him a try

D. Preview of Speech 1. State Central Idea: Although he 's known as a he-devil, Marilyn Manson is one of my greatest inspirations as his music drives me to be artistically creative, that I don 't have to follow any crowd, and he makes me want to react or rebel to something/anything.

2. Preview Main Points: Today I will cover…
I. Marilyn Manson 's amazing music inspires me to draw some of my best artwork
II. Marilyn Manson inspires me to follow my own path rather than follow someone else 's
III. His rebellious image makes me want to rebel or react in some or any

B. PETA1999 Columbine High School Massacre (reference Rolling Stones)
C. 1999 Columbine High School Massacre (reference Rolling Stones)


Transition to #III: Along with just his physical image, the rebellious image he portrays is also inspiring. 

III. A desire to rebel

A. Rebels against religion: rips mormon bible in half -born in a religious household
B.  
C. No other muscian inspires me to do this

Signal End: Under all the makeup there 's an inspiring human being there.

Conclusion

A. Restate Central Idea and Summarize Main Points: Marilyn Manson has always been one of my favorite muscians and inspriations in life. His music has shaped my art. His makeup and personality showed me that I shouldn 't care what people think so much about me. He sparked a rebellious reaction in me that I had never had before listening to any music. 

B. Clincher: “In the end we’re all Jerry Springer Show guests, really, we just haven’t been on the show.”
