For our task we are going to have Dean (me) and Ryan playing chess. I will walk down the corridor and enter room, as i'm entering the room we will have a match on action shot to show 2 different angles as I enter the door. Also we will use this shot when i'm walking down the ramp to face Ryan who is master at the game of chess. I think i'm turning up for a game of Uno with his mother. As they are platying, we wil have shot/reverse shot's from over the shoulder. We will consistently keep to the 180 degree rule. Matthew and Tom will be filming.

Narrative
A narrative is a story as sories are endemic of people's lives. It has existed as long as human beings have since there was a cave drawing, thought to be from the stone age. To see the drawing click here.
The 3 types of narrative are:
Binary Opposition - to create meaning through establishing a role for a character and that the character must have an opposite. It conforms to the idea that we cannot have 'good' without having 'evil'.
Equilibrium - There are 3 states of equilibruim : Equilibrium - Normal everyday life
Disequilibrium - A problem occurs.
New state of equilibrium - The problem is resolved.
Character types :
Hero: Lead role ( can be man or woman)
Villain: Causes a problem for the hero and conflicts with him/her.
Heroine: Prize for the hero (man or woman)
Father: Authority figure, sometimes offers a reward for the hero.
Helper: Usually the sidekick or someone that helps the hero solve a problem.
Doner: Something that gives the hero a power, talisman, key etc.
Mentor: Someone who teaches the hero an important lesson in the story.
They are all usful in their own way like the Binary Opposition suggests there can be no good without any evil, this is true because without someone to cause a problem for the Hero, the film would be boring and not attract an audience. Equilibrium is good because people can see these states in every narrative they watch/read and there is plenty of evidence for it. Finally, the character types are visable in all narratives, if all of them aren't in the narrative then the majority are there.
