Narrative Theory What is a Narrative? A Narrative describes on how a story is being told by a person like a Director would in their films. Unlike a plot who describes what the story is , like Harry Potter realizing he's a wizard or Luke Skywalker destroying the 1st Death Star. A Narrative combines the various elements within the film like setting character or plot and tells that story in way for it to signify the most meaning towards audience. A Story can be Narrated in various ways, either using first person or third person, A sequence of a story might not always stay in line as well, Sometimes a stories would have fragmented sequences ( where the plot jumps back or forwards in the past or in the future ). And all the methods have their own specific uses and meaning which goes back to what the story makers want to have the audience to receive. A Typical storyline would look something like this : Beginning ------ Middle ------ Ending
