This document discusses different narrative theories, including: - The difference between a story (plot substance) and narrative (how the plot is connected). - How genres can limit meaning and unexpected developments in a narrative. - Common narrative conventions like genre, character, form, and time. - Propp's Character Theory which identifies common character roles like hero, villain, helper. However, this theory may not always apply. - Tzodorov's narrative theory of a typical five step pattern of equilibrium, disruption, realization, order restoration, and new equilibrium. The document discusses how this pattern partially fits the narrator's trailer.

GCSE Narrative theories 1
The document introduces the concept of narrative structure in storytelling. It explains that most conventional narratives follow a three-act structure of beginning, middle, and end. The beginning sets up the story and characters, the middle involves a conflict or problem, and the end resolves the conflict. It also discusses the key elements of plot, story, and narrative form. Overall, the document provides an overview of the traditional model of narrative story structure.
Planning and research
This document discusses narrative theory and the work of Todorov and Propp. It explains that Todorov proposed a basic narrative structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and re-establishment of equilibrium. It also discusses that Todorov coined the term "narratology" and that Propp analyzed Russian folktales and identified 31 narratemes including absentation, interdiction, and violation of interdiction. Propp also concluded there were broad character types like the villain, dispatcher, and hero.

This document discusses different aspects and definitions of narrative structure in film. It begins by defining narrative as "a chain of events in a cause-effect relationship occurring in time." It then examines various components of narrative including plot, story, time manipulation techniques like montage, points of view, and narrative devices. The document also analyzes common narrative structures like the three-act structure described by Syd Field involving a set up, confrontation, and resolution. It further discusses Tzvetan Todrov's five stages of narrative and different types of modular narratives identified by Allan Cameron.

Narrative
Narrative is the way a story is told through a sequence of events. Structuralist analyses have identified common character types like heroes and villains. Binary oppositions privilege one term over another. Narratives can be open-ended like soap operas or closed with a clear ending like films. Closed narratives invite audiences to make judgments about characters. Narrative elements include plot, character, point-of-view, setting, and theme. Theories explore concepts like narrative structure, codes and conventions.
Film theorists and their theory's
The document summarizes several film theorists and their theories:
- Blumler and Katz introduced the User and Gratification theory, which focuses on how and why audiences actively seek out media to satisfy needs rather than what effect media has.
- Todorov's narrative theory states that most stories follow a five-step pattern from an initial equilibrium through disequilibrium, realization, restored order, to a final equilibrium.
- Propp identified eight common character types in narratives, including villains, dispatchers, helpers, prizes, donors, heroes, and false heroes.
- Barthes saw narratives as having five codes - hermeneutic, enigma, semantic, symbolic, and cultural - that create

Investigating narrative
Narrative is a chain of causally linked events that occurs over time, and it is found in many forms of entertainment like literature, film, and music. In film specifically, narrative relies on techniques like editing, cinematography, and sound to manipulate time and convey meaning. It is structured around key concepts like plot, character, and point of view. Common narrative structures in film include the three-act structure and Tzvetan Todorov's five stages of equilibrium, disequilibrium, new equilibrium. Modern films also employ modular narratives that manipulate time in nonlinear ways through techniques like flashbacks, parallel timelines, and split screens. Narrative is crucial for films because it allows audiences to understand and engage with story

Narrative Image: The How and Why of Visual Storytelling
Explores the basics of how images communicate. Looks at various types of visual narratives. Presented to the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators at the 2011 national conference in Olympia, WA on July 12, 2011.
Narrative theories
Levi-Strauss believed that narratives rely on binary opposites like hero/villain to help form plots. Todorov's theory proposes films follow five stages: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, new equilibrium. Propp argued character functions structure folk tales, with roles like hero, villain, donor. Non-linear narratives can be cohesive like disruptive, non-sequential, or disjointed, or non-cohesive like ergodic, branching, or multi-linear.
Narrative Theory
The document summarizes several narrative theories:
1) Barthes' Enigma Code which suggests texts portray mysteries to intrigue audiences.
2) Todorov's 5 Stages of Narrative where stories begin in equilibrium, face disruption, and restore order.
3) Propp's 8 character types that provide narrative structure, including heroes, villains, helpers.
4) Lévi-Strauss' theory that narratives are structured around conflicts between binary opposites like good vs evil.
Narrative
The document discusses various narrative structures and theories. It describes linear and non-linear narratives, such as dual narratives that show two perspectives, and flashbacks that take the audience back in time. Theories discussed include Tzvetan Todorov's theory of narrative structure involving equilibrium, disruption, recognition, repair, and reinstatement of equilibrium. Vladimir Propp analyzed Russian folk tales and identified 31 narrative functions and 7 character types. Claude Levi-Strauss viewed narrative as creating binary oppositions that further the story through conceptual conflicts like love/hate.
Narrative theory - Media Studies
This document discusses several narrative theories, beginning with a definition of narrative as a sequence of fictional or non-fictional events presented to an audience. It then examines Tzvetan Todorov's theory that narratives follow five steps: equilibrium is disrupted, the disruption is recognized, an attempt is made to fix the damage, and a new resolution or equilibrium is reached. However, some narratives like the film "Se7en" deliberately avoid resolution. Vladimir Propp's theory identified common character archetypes in narratives like villains, helpers, and heroes. Claude Levi-Strauss's theory was that narratives rely on binary oppositions like strong vs. weak and good vs. evil.
Narrative Theory in Brief
Tzvetan Todorov proposed that narratives follow a pattern of equilibrium, disruption of equilibrium by an outside force, and a return to a new equilibrium. He later refined this into five stages: initial equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to reinstate equilibrium, and return to a new equilibrium. Claude Levi-Strauss argued that narratives are structured around conflicts between binary opposites. Roland Barthes identified five narrative codes that unlock meaning in texts: the enigma code, action code, semantic code, symbolic code, and referential code. Vladimir Propp isolated seven character types and numerous narrative functions that are often present in fairy tales, such as preparation, complication, transference, struggle, return, and recognition.
Categories and language
This document discusses various categories, language concepts, and semiotic principles for analyzing media texts. It outlines categories such as purpose, medium, form, and genre that can be used to classify media works. It also defines key language concepts including signs, codes, denotation, connotation, and how technology impacts narrative and audience reception. Finally, it provides an example of analyzing the denotation and connotation of an image from a media text.
Theories of narrative ppt 2
This document discusses several theories of narrative structure:
- Roland Barthes identified five codes that can be woven into narratives, including the hermeneutic code which refers to unexplained elements that create mystery.
- The proairetic code builds tension by indicating upcoming events, keeping audiences guessing.
- Todorov's theory of equilibrium describes a disruption to the status quo that creates confusion before a new equilibrium is reached.
- Propp identified character archetypes like heroes, villains, and prizes found in fairy tales.
- Levi-Strauss noted drama stems from tension between binary opposites that is resolved.
M1 PPT
The document discusses several theories of narrative including those proposed by Roland Barthes, Todorov, Propp, and Levi-Strauss. It then examines how each theory relates to the author's short film. According to the summary, Barthes identified the hermeneutic code, which refers to unexplained elements that create mystery, and the proairetic code, which builds tension around future events. Todorov's theory of equilibrium involves an initial steady state that is disrupted, followed by resolution. Propp identified common character archetypes. Levi-Strauss noted drama stems from tension between binary opposites that is resolved. The author analyzes how their short film incorporates elements of each theory.

The document discusses several key concepts related to genre and narrative in media texts:
- Genre refers to recognizable categories of media defined by common conventions like plot, characters, settings, and visual elements. Understanding genre gives audiences pleasures of anticipation and expectation.
- Narrative is the organization of facts that gives coherence and meaning. Narratives use conventions like genre, character, time, and form to link events. Theories by Barthes and Todorov analyze how narratives progress from an initial state to a transformed resolution.
- Dyer's utopian theory suggests audiences seek escapism through media genres that offer idealized worlds contrasting with limitations of reality. Media fulfill gratifications by presenting opportunities lacking in

Narrative media concept
The document discusses various narrative theories and structures that can be applied to films, books, and plays. It summarizes Todorov's narrative theory of equilibrium, disruption, recognition, repair, and new equilibrium. It also discusses Vladimir Propp's analysis of Russian folktales and his identification of 7 character roles and 31 narrative functions. The document then discusses how the filmmakers chose not to strictly follow these theories for their short film, instead using a nonlinear, open structure to reflect the main character's mental illness and leave the audience questioning.
Narrative
This document discusses narrative structure in media. It explains that narrative organizes story elements like facts in a documentary to tell a meaningful story. There are different types of narrative structures, such as open-ended structures with no conclusion or closed structures that end satisfactorily. Popular structures include the enigma, where the audience solves a puzzle-like plot. Theories of narrative include identifying character types and stages of equilibrium, disruption and resolution. The short film discussed follows a closed structure and character types from Propp's theory, with an initial equilibrium disrupted by the father not appearing, leading to a new resolution.
Applying Narrative Theories
The document discusses various narrative theories and concepts that can be used to analyze film narratives, including:
- Linear vs. non-linear narratives and examples of each
- Tzvetan Todorov's 5 stages of narrative structure: equilibrium, disruption, realization, action, new equilibrium
- Vladimir Propp's character archetypes in folktales
- Claude Levi-Strauss's concept of binary oppositions

Narrative
The document discusses several narrative theories proposed by scholars such as Vladimir Propp, Bordwell and Thompson, Claude Levi-Strauss, and Tzvetan Todorov. It summarizes their key ideas: Propp identified character roles and narrative functions common across folk tales. Bordwell and Thompson believed narratives shape events in time and space. Levi-Strauss analyzed binary oppositions in themes. Todorov's theory proposed narratives begin with equilibrium, are disrupted by an event, then events restore the initial state.
Theory
The document discusses several theories of narrative structure, including circular, episodic, and linear structures. It also summarizes the works of Tzvetan Todorov, Vladimir Propp, and Claude Levi-Strauss regarding narrative elements. The author concludes that they will use a circular narrative structure for their gangster film opening in order to engage audiences and set the scene through flashbacks within the first few minutes.
Planning and research
This document discusses narrative theory and the work of Todorov and Propp. It explains that Todorov proposed a basic narrative structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and re-establishment of equilibrium. It also discusses that Todorov coined the term "narratology" and that Propp analyzed Russian folktales and identified 31 narratemes including absentation, interdiction, and violation of interdiction. Propp also concluded there were broad character types like the villain, dispatcher, and hero.

Narrative Theory
The document discusses several theories of narrative structure, including:
1) Circular, episodic, and linear structures. Circular narratives begin with the end while episodic narratives are broken into chapters.
2) Tzvetan Todorov's theory that all narratives follow the basic structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and a return to equilibrium.
3) Vladimir Propp's theory that all narratives contain 7 character types like the hero, villain, and princess.

Narrative as film part 1
This document discusses narrative theory and structure in films. It explains that storytelling has always been integral to human cultures as a way to make sense of the world. It presents theories by Chris Vogler, Todorov, and Syd Field about common narrative structures, including the hero's journey pattern and 3-act structure. The document also discusses how narratives create pleasure for audiences through gratification, suspense, and surprise, and how filmmakers position audiences to achieve different effects. The overall purpose is to understand narrative concepts and apply them in analyzing the films "Mean Girls" and "Pretty in Pink".
Narrative Theory
This document summarizes four major narrative theories:
1) Todorov's theory proposes five stages that structure narratives: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, new equilibrium. This structure applies to the film "Life Is a Journey" but in a different order.
2) Propp analyzed Russian fairytales and identified character types like villains and heroes, but these don't apply to "Life Is a Journey" which only has two characters.
3) Levi-Strauss saw narratives as reflecting cultural beliefs through binary opposites like poor/rich. "Life Is a Journey" may show this through the relationship between its male and female characters.
4) Mulvey's "male gaze"
Theory
The document explores four media theorists - Tzvetan Todorov, Vladimir Propp, Claude Levi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes - and their theories on narrative structures. It discusses Tzvetan Todorov's view that narratives follow a structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium. It then examines Vladimir Propp's theory that stories contain up to eight character archetypes. Next, it covers Claude Levi-Strauss' idea that narratives revolve around binary opposites. The document analyzes how the theories relate to the films Gangster Squad, Cinderella, Pulp Fiction, and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

- Claude Levi-Strauss looked at narratives in terms of binary opposites like good/evil, past/present that reveal deeper structural arrangements.
- Roland Barthes said narratives can be "unraveled" to find different meanings and potential interpretations. He described five codes that group signifiers: hermeneutic, symbolic, proairetic, cultural, and
Television show narrative types
The document discusses various narrative theory concepts like Todorov's 5 stages of narrative structure, Propp's 7 character archetypes, and Levi-Strauss' concept of binary oppositions. It also covers Barthes' idea of codes used in narratives and concludes by outlining an assignment to perform a semiotic analysis of a print advertisement.
Narrative theory
The document discusses several key concepts in narrative theory:
1. Tzvetan Todorov and Vladimir Propp analyzed common structures in stories, finding they typically involve an initial equilibrium, a disruption, and a new resolution.
2. Propp identified common character roles and narrative functions that recur across folk tales.
3. Claude Levi-Strauss examined narrative in terms of underlying binary oppositions between themes.
It also discusses how narratives use techniques like flashbacks, parallel editing, and inference to manipulate audiences' understanding of events in time and space. The relationship between the visible "plot" and the full imagined "story" is also addressed.
Narrative
The document discusses several narrative theories proposed by scholars including Vladimir Propp, Bordwell and Thompson, Claude Levi-Strauss, Tzvetan Todorov, and Syd Field. Propp identified character roles and narrative functions that are common across folk tales. Bordwell and Thompson believed narratives shape events in time and space. Levi-Strauss analyzed binary oppositions in themes. Todorov's theory described an initial equilibrium disrupted by an event leading to resolution. Field proposed the three-act plot structure. The document provides examples and visuals to explain these theories of narrative structure.
Theories of narrative ppt
This document discusses several theories of narrative structure:
- Roland Barthes identified five codes that can be woven into narratives, including the hermeneutic code which refers to unexplained elements that create mystery.
- The proairetic code builds tension by indicating upcoming events, keeping audiences guessing.
- Todorov's theory of equilibrium describes a disruption to the status quo that creates confusion before a new equilibrium is reached.
- Propp identified character archetypes like heroes, villains, and prizes found in fairy tales.
- Levi-Strauss noted drama stems from tension between binary opposites that is resolved.
Narrative theory
This document discusses several narrative theories:
- Narrative is how a story is told through a sequence of events, while the plot is the order characters learn about events.
- Barthes identified narrative codes like action and enigma that help audiences understand media texts.
- Levi-Strauss said narratives are propelled by conflicts that must be resolved.
- Todorov outlined a typical narrative form of equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, new equilibrium.
- Propp identified 31 narrative functions and 7 character types that commonly appear in stories, influencing many storytellers.
Theories narrative
This document discusses several narrative theories and their applicability to the short film being created. It analyzes Propp's model of character roles, including the hero and villain, and finds that while some modern films don't strictly follow this model, it can still be useful. For Todorov's theory of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium, the document states this won't fully apply to the short film due to time constraints and its focus on mental health. Barthes' five narrative codes of action, enigma, symbolic, semic, and cultural are also examined, with action noted as not being present in the short film's drama genre.
Media theories
The document provides information about several theorists and their approaches to analyzing narratives, including Vladimir Propp, Tzvetan Todorov, Roland Barthes, and Claude Levi-Strauss. Propp analyzed folk tales and identified common character archetypes. Todorov proposed narratives follow five fundamental stages: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, new equilibrium. Barthes described texts as having multiple meanings accessed through different codes. Levi-Strauss found narratives are structured around conflicts between binary opposites. The document discusses how these theories can be applied to modern narratives like films.

Media evaluation
The magazine cover features two dolls to represent the film The Dollhouse. This challenges typical magazine covers but fits with the film's trailer showing two main characters. One doll wears white and the other brown, suggesting something bad will happen to one. The magazine would be a good fit to promote the film as it usually features articles on villains and would discuss the film's inspiration, the horror film Chucky, which also involves an evil doll. The informal language and focus on the antagonist dolls makes the magazine engaging for its audience.
Shooting script for the dollhouse
This document contains a shooting script and supporting documents for a short film titled "The Dollhouse". The shooting script outlines 15 shots including establishing shots of two girls walking in the park and playing, cutaways inside an abandoned house where they find dolls, and a climactic shot of one girl screaming on the floor. An equipment list notes the cameras, lighting, props, and makeup owned by the filmmaker. A shot list further describes the 9 shots planned within the house including angles and locations. The script provides dialogue between the two girls as they enter the abandoned house and discover dolls, with one girl screaming at the end.
Poster and magazine mockup and proposal
The document provides details on proposals and mockups for posters and magazine covers promoting a horror film called "The Dollhouse". The proposals discuss featuring the antagonist doll prominently, using a dark background with spotlight on the doll, and writing the title in red to indicate the horror genre. One mockup is criticized for its straightforward angle not creating enough impact. The proposals aim to be consistent with other horror films in the genre by highlighting the doll and setting the right ominous tone through lighting and font choices.
Media evaluation

It examines the conventions of the horror genre used in the trailer, including the narrative, characters, locations, sound, editing, camera work, and mise-en-scene. Specifically, it notes the trailer's use of screams, darkness, whispers and slow pace to set a chilling atmosphere. The analysis also discusses how the editing, camera movements, and lighting are employed to build tension and unease in the viewer.
Traits of genre
The document discusses how genre conventions appeal to audiences and help film marketing. Each genre has distinguishing characteristics like characters, narrative, location, and mise-en-scene that vary between genres. The film Annabelle establishes the horror genre through spooky music during supernatural events, scary makeup and expressions, and low key lighting that creates a dark atmosphere.

Evaluation.
The document summarizes and analyzes the key elements of a movie poster and magazine cover for the horror film "The Dollhouse". The poster features a single doll dressed in pink from a low angle, making the doll appear powerful and staring down at the audience. This is meant to encourage viewers to watch the film just as the dolls in the film persuade the girls to play with them. The magazine cover features two dolls, one in white and one in brown, suggesting something bad will happen to one of them. It also uses informal language and discusses related horror films and villains to engage readers and convince them to see the film.

Narrative theories:
- 1. Narrative Theories: A narrative in a media text is how the story/plot is told, this could be fictional or non- fictional. There is a difference between a story and a narrative. A story is a substance of a plot, on the other hand a narrative is how the plot is connected - how one sequence of the plot is connected to the other, and the smooth movement between scenes leading into the next. The narrative is the way in which the story relates and connects, using the links and connections within the narrative, the audience is able to make their own interpretations which are affected by their real life experiences and partly through influences from other similar texts. Hartley - ‘Genres are agents of ideological closure; they limit the meaning of a potential of a given text’ - e.g classic westerns expected roles of stock characters limits the unexpected developments of the narrative. For example gay cowboys. Conventions of a narrative: - Genre - The genre sets the plot, it gives the audience an idea of what they should expect in the narrative. - Character - the presentation of a character allows the audience to interpret what the character will be doing during the film. - Form - The form allows the audience to recognise a structure that the film/trailer follows. - Time - Narratives do not follow a real time structure. Conventions are understood best through the experiences of the audience, this may be their own experiences or through other texts, this allows them to understand these conventions. Propp’s Character Theory Vladmir Propp was a Russian critic in 1920, while the cinemas were producing films, Propp was interested in narratives of folk tales. He made a link between similar folktales and identified a theory about characters and actions/purposes as a narrative theory creating ‘Propp’s Character Theory’. This theory focuses on the roles of characters within a film/trailer. Traditionally, the characters are broken down into: The hero, villain, dispatcher, doner, helper, heroine, false hero, the princess, and her father. These characters all have a
- 2. purpose within a film/trailer, for example, the hero always tends to seek for something, whereas the false hero tries to delay the hero’s success in claiming that thing. The Donor, being the one who helps provide the hero with magic. This theory adapts well with Harry potter for example. However, this theory does not fit with my trailer (narrative) as I only have two characters who are introduced in my trailer, meaning they do not fit the categories of this theory. Tzvetan Todorov: Todorov’s narrative theory claims that most stories/plots follow the same pattern or path. There are typically 5 steps to this pattern. 1. Equilibrium - The first part of the trailer/film will reveal a happy start, where everything seems positive and how it should be. 2. A disruption - The second part of the story will be followed by a disruption, where something goes wrong, or seems off overlapping with the happiness. 3. Realisation - This part of the plot reveals people recognising the problem. 4. Restore order - This is when the characters attempt to restore the problem and solve it. 5. Equilibrium again - This is the final of the plot, where the problem is solved by the characters. My trailer is similar to that of Todorov's narrative theory. However, my teaser trailer is different, as it does not cover the ‘restore order’ or ‘equilibrium again’ crossing those two out. Therefore my trailer would follow the structure of Equilibrium (where Ella and Grace are happily playing in the park), a disruption (where Ella pushes Grace), and realisation (where Grace is aware that Ella pushed her and is not acting herself).
