[00:00.000]In the humanities, authors write to inform you in many ways.
[00:05.538]These methods can be classified into three types of informational writing: factual, descriptive and process.
[00:16.651]Factual writing provides background information on an author, composer or artist, or on a type of music, literature or art.
[00:28.727]Examples of factual writing include notes on a book jacket, or album cover
[00:37.228]and longer pieces, such as an article describing a style of music, which you might read in a music appreciation course.
[00:44.680]This kind of writing provides a context for your study of the humanities.
[00:49.988]As its name implies, descriptive writing simply describes, or provides an image of a piece of music, art or literature.
[01:01.676]For example, descriptive writing might list the colors an artists used in the painting,
[01:08.584]or the instrument a composer included in a musical composition,
[01:12.816]so as to make pictures or sound in the readers' mind, by calling up specific details of the work.
[01:19.640]Descriptive writing in the humanities, particularly in literature, is often mixed with critical writing.
[01:28.132]Process writing explains a series of actions that bring about result.
[01:35.559]It tells the reader how to do something.
[01:38.749]For example, explaining the technique used to shoot a film.
[01:43.009]This kind of writing is often found in art,
[01:47.246]where understanding how an art has created a certain effect is important.
[01:52.033]Authors may actually use more than one type of technique in a given piece of informational writing.
