Narrative

Today we discussed in class Narrative in the media by firstly identifying what it is. It is a chain of events in a cause of effect relationship accuracy in space and time.  It is a combination of the plot(how it happened) and the story(what happens) and the process of balancing what we see, hear and what we assume. The part of assuming is very important in our trailer in order to ensure the audience assumes something has happened to the young boy in order to make him deranged. For our trailer we have decided to have a linear conventional narrative having a start, middle and end as it means that the audience will not get confused with it and is also the most popular form of narrative to use in trailers as shown in the research. The majority of audiences also respond better to this structure.
For our trailer we are kind of twisting the theory of Levis Stratus having contrasts of bad and good but having these as the same person.  This will therefore form a unique trailer and plot for the audience to be attracted to.
