Narrative and Genre

Narrative and Genre

There are many different types of Genre. For example there is Comedy, Romance, Horror, Thriller, Fantasy, Drama, Sci-fi, Adventure & Action. I have learned A narrative is some kind of retelling, often in words, but can also be showed well in films. It usually tells the audience of the story, the narrative is not the story itself but rather it is the telling of the story. A story is just a sequence of events however a narrative retells those events, often in a peculiar way, sometimes they retell the story in a fragmented narrative, meaning the story doesn't really go according to how you would expect, sometimes leaving some parts out because they are from some perspective insignificant, and perhaps emphasizing others. In a series of events, a car crash takes a split second. A narrative account, however, might be almost entirely about the crash itself and the few seconds leading up to it.

Horror involves things such as weapons, violence and the general uncomfortable feel. It often leads to anticipation in cliffhangers. My favourite kinds of films are Sci-fi and Thrillers. I like Sci-fi films incredibly, a good example of a Sci-fi film I like is Avatar. I also like Thrillers as the give films a tense feel.

I believe that my own will be successful because I have adopted great ideas from recent lessons and I will study hard, follow good advice and will sacrifice most of my time to it. I will put in a great work ethic also.
