RESEARCH: NARRATIVE

Today I looked at David Bordwell's Understanding Film Narrative: Trailer. Which used Wolf on Wall Street as a case study.
I found this very helpful as it talks about the suspense narrative can cause, which would be useful for my action trailer.
To see the post click HERE.

The article talks about different ways of narrative including:
Dimension 1: Pushy narration
Style as narration
Narration as inference-making
Dimension 2: Plot as pattern
Caught in the act(s)
Dimension 3: The story and its world

  1. Bordwell is incredibly useful. In your shoes, I would draw attention to some aspects of what you learned, and try to relate it to how you yourself are working on your production.
