NARRATIVE

NARRATIVE what is it?

narration =process of telling the story 
narrator = story teller 
narrative =the way in which the story is told 

archetype =character that pops up agin and agin eg the jock, geek and hotty (similar to stereotype)  

There is no narrative without some sort of conflict
series do this on an episode basis and over a whole season basis 

eg. reality tv 'TOWIE' 'MIC' 
gossip, argument, resolution


single strand narrative = one narrative (quite rare) 
muti strand narrative = contains multiple narratives 

advantage of the theory of narrative is it can be applied very simply, can be used on a macro (huge) and micro level (small)
very simple way of looking at story telling
