Tennita's Ideas

Why 'Art of Language' is a best idea to me (argument paper)

It can be pretty difficult to create an idea, invention or a new trend in this generation. It

is a very complex and enjoyable process that requires research, test and focus. The most

important aspect of an idea is to find the main focus or what I should say ‘the core’. Ideas can

take time and if it’s successful or a flop, people still want to know why the idea was made like

their history, what inspiration, and maybe theories.First of all, I thought of three ideas. The first one is ‘Art of Language’ then ‘Art of Technology ’and then ‘Video Game Connection’. I choose ‘Art of Language’ because not only it helps others to speak fluently but to make sure there are less stressful. One sentence I would describe this “Presenting the new Rosetta Stone”.

Art of Language will work because this will get people, mostly children, more focus of

learning new languages. Plus I have to think like a student that don’t want to learn sometimes

and wants to be entertained sometimes but at the same time needs to be educated. The

audience that is appropriate for my idea is 14 and over because that is the age they’ll get

interested in manga/comic than textbooks also becoming happier. According to Thalia Sutton’s

“Why Manga Is Good for Kids” she says that kids that are interested into manga are highly

intelligent. The tradition is based on Japanese culture. Instead of reading dialogues, people will

define objects, pronounce words and solve puzzles. The simple medium that I’ll be working on

is artwork since it is a comic. Students reading a textbook will find it not satisfying but if it was a comic, then they will be interested.

What Inspires Me on My Idea

     The reason why I chose 'Art of Language' is because to help people improve their language skills, be more comfortable and to show my art style to the public. My main interest is video games and hopefully to create one. I use to have a dream about becoming an artist when I was a child but ever since I played the Super Nintendo and received the Gameboy Color, my career change. Basically art, video games and my imagination made me inspired to made me create my idea. Another inspiration that comes to me  are cartoons and manga. To me, each cartoon show their own specific art style (same as video games), how they behave in their own environment and what clothes they wear, shape of their eyes etc. I know this is a wonderful idea for people is because images can have a impact for any problem what so ever. The art work on the bottom are not mine but it gives me an idea of what the types of artwork is going to be on the final project.

The artwork on the bottom is by me and it is a small inspiration.

The Idea that I choose out of the three is 'The Art of Language'. I selected this idea because not only I wanted to help people with their second language but to give this book a anime/manga look of this art style to help people be more comfortable. This is a prototype of my idea. The one sentence that describe this is "presenting the new and easy Rosetta Stone"
