1. Given that this profile relates to the controversy presented in the documentary
Blackfish, the best way to showcase the accounts would be through a magazine
style design. In this way, the information will be delivered formally and still
remain attractive to the readers eye. This combination of formal and magazine
style will allow for separate sections that will organize ideas and supporting
evidence into a coherent flow.
2. Figures should describe most subheadings, roughly one every other page. The
initial image would be that of the film blackfish to highlight the focus of this
profile. Additional photographs of Tilikum will be included to illustrate the
conditions of orca captivity and trainer related deaths. All figures will be placed in
the corresponding section in the same column as the text to keep a consistent
format throughout. Lastly, a brief description will be provided for all images
along with a proper citation.
