I love this design that Suzie made in this video. I will be using the Neoclassical (pathos, logos and ethos) method. This video is like most of her videos showcases tutorials on how to create nails in detail. Along with the detail she provides, she also displays her love of nail art in her excitement while creating her nails. Suzie gives her viewers all the steps on how to recreate her nail designs.
The tutorial made a lot of great points as I am a DIY nail tech, and as I do my own nails, she makes it easy for me to follow her. It’s also easy to get excited by her attitude while she creates something super cute or beautiful. Suzie is a very cheerful personality, this is her ethos part of the Neoclassical, and as an instructor as well as an artist she makes her tutorials fun in both regards. She matches her background displays and she is thoughtful in the selection of music she chooses, matching the mood of the nail design she creates.
The combination of her background and music also creates a soothing effect while watching the video, which lends to her type of character she portrays. I like to think it’s a true reflection of Suzie’s character. This type of art is very detailed and creative, but it’s also technical and requires a form of logic to create the proper nail which Suzie always shows in all nail tutorial videos.
Suzie also answered viewer’s questions in her video and one question a viewer asked was, “Is your new kit geared for Professionals, Students, Non-professionals, Nail enthusiasts, of for all the above?” – Janeen Utley. This was a good question, and Suzie’s answer was just perfect, because it shows more of her character (ethos), her response, was “It’s geared for everybody…it’s why I started the YouTube channel, so everybody can learn for free.” I love this about Suzie, she views that the nail tech industry is restrictive to Non-professionals, as higher quality products are only available to licensed nail technicians.
This video was a great demonstration of her spirit when creating nails, a viewer is not just educated while watching this video, but also inspired by her cheerful and excitable reactions to her nail design. This makes me want to create this design, like most of her videos, I feel very inspired to try something that might be intimidating or difficult to do, but I know I can rely on her super awesome tutorials.
Suzie’s channel represents the best things about what YouTube is, she wants people to have access to free nail tech education, which is expensive and she loves her craft so much that she sells her own products to everyone, not just licensed nail technicians. I always enjoy watching her tutorials and I’ve learned so much from them. This video is one of my favorites I hope you can watch a little, I’ve provided her video above, and a link to her channel here. I hope you enjoy!

The use of the neoclassical, Legos, Ethos and Pathos is an interesting analytical tool for this post. From my reading, I detect a well-developed analysis using the ethos system. There is a mention of Susie’s very cheerful personality, in my opinion, this is directly tied to her Pathos. Clearly, there is a reference to the logic of Susie’s organization, which is directly related to the Logos. My only recommendation is that you highlight these three topics for the non-communication major.

Your enthusiasm comes across very clearly here! You’ve divided up the information well, and you have embedded the video cleanly. This is all a great start!
To strengthen your post, it would benefit from 3 things. Remember, these are tips for revising at the end of the semester, not just yet, so no hurry here. First, I think it would help a lot if you set up each of the criteria for analysis. Explain what ethos is, pathos is, and logos is. Point out how looking at these together helps the critic (you) to determine whether or not the person was crafting an effective, persuasive message. Second, you clearly think she succeeds primarily because of her character (goodwill, good sense, and good moral character). You should state that, explicitly, in the introduction and conclusion of your post. Third, tie the points you make (e.g., how she doesn’t limit the people she sells to) to these points about ethos, using the language from class. You have the evidence in place; now, connect it to claims.
You’re on the right path. Keep at it! 🙂
