Narrative theory

Narrative is a vital concept for A Level Media. We look for narratives - stories - to make sense of media texts. Everything from film and television to news and adverts relies on narrative to help audiences understand the message.  There are  narrative patterns  and three key  narrative theories  we need to learn as part of our introduction to A Level Media. The notes as a reminder: Narrative patterns Linear Pattern :  progresses forward towards a resolution - Beginning, Middle and End. Multi-strand Narrative :  popular in broadcast TV (e.g. soaps) and film. Involves more than one narrative running parallel involving different characters and locations.

Negotiated reading: The negotiated reading is that people can see the reason why lil pump would say him and his friends are the "gucci gang" because he wants to flex on everyone but they would also see how everyone is focusing on his money and fame but no one is wondering about all the starving kids around the suburbs in less developed countries. Oppositional reading: The oppositional reading is that lil pump uses his money to promote himself and for him to live a luxurious life whilst that money could be sent to poverty ridden countries and help people get out of poverty instead of using all of his money on clothes/cars/etc.
