MLA Format, Hard Copy
Prompt: Does Blackfish present a fair and convincing argument? Using the film and two outside sources, make an argument about the film’s portrayal of Sea World and the treatment of animals. Notice that “fair” and “convincing” are two separate qualities.
Tips/Comments: Focus on each paragraph developing a specific aspect of the argument. There were times that the paragraphs seemed to cover the same topic; there is nothing wrong with this on some level, but the more that you can make a distinction between claims the better. Avoid 1st/2nd person as much as possible. This will not only be more formal, but it will help your arguments be stronger and will require you to have more conscious, developed claims.
