PRODUCTION OUTLINE:
My plan for my production is to make an article. Article will include an interview with some celebrity and their stereotypical view/experience about religions. The person that the celebrity will be interviewed with will be really rational, and will persuade the celebrity (with some back-up arguments from my critical investigation) that some of the really stereotypical views on certain religion are wrong.

To make this article I’ll have to use Mac computers at college.

 I will have to look up certain celebrity magazines to see which one suits best for the article I want make. Then, I will look and do research about the ‘outlook’ of this magazine, and make my article in the same way as they’re doing their articles.
