Narrative In Short

Narrative is:
- organisation given to a series of facts
- very important as it makes sense of a film - start to end
- make interpretations between different scenes/events
- Exampl: Fill in gaps of getting in a plane & landing - they dont show a four hour journey as it would take too long & would uninterest the audience

How to seperate story or Narrative - story is the irreducible substance of a story ( A meets B, something happens & order returns)

Narrative is the way that the story is realted (fiske et al 1983)
