Research into Narrative
Using ' Narrative' as a descriptor, ' Narrative media' are media that aim to tell a story.
Narrative theory is the study of the way stories are structured. All media products tell stories in some way.
The study of narrative explores the different ways that media texts can tell a story. Narrative is strongly linked to the audience and purpose of the text.
The narrative theory is made by Tzvetan Todorov. His theory states that most story's or plots follow the same pattern which is the 5 step narrative theory pattern. First part of the story will display a happy start , where the characters are content and everything is how it should be
There are 3 types of narrative: 1st person, 2nd person, 3rd person.
Many stories and novels are written in the first-person point of view. In this narrative, you are inside a character's head, watching the story unfold through that character's eyes.
Second person point of view uses “you” to address the reader. This narrative voice implies that the reader is either the protagonist or a character in the story and the events are happening to them.
In the third-person narrative mode, the narration refers to all characters with third person pronouns like he, she, or they, and never first- or second-person pronouns. This makes it clear the narration is done without the need for a narrator who is identified and personified as a character within the story.
