For my essay, I will be focusing on the transcript that deals with experiences in chat sessions. I will be focusing on what led A to have a scary tone in the first excerpt of the transcript and by the second excerpt, a funny tone. One of the points I will look at are how Chandler possibly was able to change the tone of A’s voice in the two transcripts. The questions or tone that an interviewer uses can have an effect on how the person being interviewed will respond or the tone that he or she uses. I could also notice that certain words or phrases indicate that the tone has switched from a scary one to funny. For example, A admits that she was “so scared” and when she says that “my mom is going to kill me”, both of which are scared tones in the first excerpt. In the second excerpt, A recalls a funny experience she had with a friend when they were talking to someone and as it turned out, it was their pastor’s son.
