3. Reflection I have learned from the study of satire what satire itself is, how to interpret it from the text, and how to satirize something myself. I also realized that satirizing isn't as easy as it looked like, thus, had many troubles with the Satirical Comic Project.
 * Allusion ' referring to the Second Industrial Revolution'
 * Hyperbole (exaggeration) ' the scenes where every trees are cut, and there is storming happening = although constructing affects nature, it is not like deforestation, which is what I put'
 * Oxymoron ' Destructive Development'
 * Irony (sarcasm) "Is the definition of development supposed to bring destruction?"
 * Parody ' the commercial'
 * Understatement ' I guess it is true that the constructions effect the nature a tiny bit..' = Although it is not like deforestation, for urban areas, constructing has a great impact of destroying the little amount left of the nature.
 * Juxtaposition - the contrast and comparing of the more convenient world, and the world without nature.

What is the conﬂict in your story? - The conflict is between development and the worsening of environment. Brieﬂy outline the plot events (bullet points okay)… - An architect talks about his objectives of his work and development - A commercial about how the company's architecture "lives together with the nature " - More development in the environment - Cuts showing the worsening of the environment because of the lack of nature due to too much development - At the very last scene, there is the architect's son standing alone on a very small amount of land, with overflowing water at all sides of him.

Who are the characters? (a limited number is a good idea) There is only going to be mainly one character, the architect. But there are extra people in the background changing as the environment changes. The architect's son.  State how you will use the following devices (use at least ﬁve of the seven listed):

Allusion Refer the development to the Industrial Revolution
