Narrative structure:


Story- The raw materials of dramatic action as they might be described in chronological order


Plot- How the story is old , the form of story telling or the structure the story follows


Conflict- Can take many forms ; emotional , interpersonal or even between the character & his/her environment






Equilibrium theory :


Equilibrium - Everything is as it should be


Disequilibrium - An event disrupts order


Realisation - recognition of disorder


Attempt to repair disruption


A return to before or the restoration of a new equilibrium





Three Act Structure :
Set up - Exposition
Confrontation - Rising action / crisis
Resolution - Falling action


The film i have selected as a case study is The Lion King.


Equilibrium - Mufasa is king of the Pridelands and lives with Sarabi his wife and also there lion cub called Simba.
Disequilibrium - The murder of Mufasa by his brother Scar which then Scar tells Simba it was all his fault and Simba runs away into the dessert and is found by Timon and Pumbaa and they raise him to be a carnivore like them and his grows in the space of 5 frames and singing 'Hakuna Matata'
Realisation - the realisation is when it flicks to Pridelands when Scar has become king and there is no food for the lionesses or anyone to eat. When Nala comes to hunt and finds Simba and takes him home.
Attempt to repair - is when Simba returns to the Pridelands and fights Scar and tells everyone why he ran away from home because he thought he killed Mufasa and then Scar admits it so they fight and Scar is killed
A new equilibrium - the rein of Simba begins

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly fantasy scene starts with very uplifting music with him remembering his life and then the realisation sets in when he realised he can't do those things again and that he took life for granted. All he has is his imagination which is why it is uplifting and then when he realised that's all he has that why the music starts to get sadder and more depressing. The sound bridge at the end to show that he is thinking about what we have just seen.  The shaving scene the lack on sound make the audience focus on the task which is being carried about and want the audience to make up their own mind on how to feel about what is happening through the way the venerability is shown by the shaving his father stubble off his face. The diegetic sound of the razor just makes it more realistic because that is the sound you would hear if you were in the same room as the person being shaved this makes the audience member feel like they are th...

Responses and comparison

In Captain Fantastic some spectators may have an emotional response which is dependent on the certain spectators like who they are, what their gender is, how old they are. The emotional response of shock in the opening scene where they kill the stag the techniques for this is that it has been put next to a scene of happiness where they are washing in the lake and playing together which makes the killing part of the scene more shocking and the washing part of the scene more happy as they are polar opposites to each other. There is also no music in this scene which makes the killing of the stag very unexpected and very brutal with the stag just going about it's day and Bo the eldest son kills it. Another emotional response is sympathy for Rellian as most children have had an argument with there parents and you always think that the child is right and the parents are wrong which may make some spectators feel empathy for him and also maybe approval to what he is doing by going to Ja...

How does the film mirror the way video games are constructed? The film mirrors the way video games are constructed by the different levels very much like a game also they used lift for different levels also the lifts to different memories of Cobb's with Mal How is a crisis in Masculinity shown in the film? The crisis in Masculinity is shown in the film by the two strong independent women one of which is Cobb's wife Mal and the other who is Cobb's new architect How does the film show grief an loss (echo of post 911)? The film portray the male trauma through the character of Leonardo DiCarpio's which is Dom Cobb which him losing his wife is his trauma which is most likely to change him as a person and the fact that he was blamed for his wife's death would have made this time even harder for him.
