Comedy

Narrative.
A narrative is the way a story is told for example
weather its linear or non-linear or weather flash
backs are used as compared to story which is the
sequence of events In a production or the plot which
is how those events happen.
Exemplars of narrative structure.
Linear
Linear is when a story is told from the start to
finish in chronological order.
non linear
is when the story starts at the end or middle and
often the films explains how the events shown at the
start happened.
flash back
flash backs are when the characters look back and
reflect and there memories are shown on the screen.
This can be used to show characters emotions and they
are sometimes narrated by the character.
Realism
realism is made to be a realistic representation of
life, it will have realistic characters setting and
plots. An example of this is the film Trainspotting
Anti-realism
This is the opposite to realism and so it means a
production has unrealistic characters and events, an
example of this is Star-Wars.
open ending
an open ending is an ending that is left open for a
sequel or another series, it can be a cliff hanger or
not.
closed ending
a closed ending is one that leave no room for a
sequel for example if all of the main characters die.
Lighting
Lighting a single camera production can be difficult
because there is only one camera. as there is only
one camera the camera has to move and this means that
as the camera is moved to different locations the
lighting will change. This means that the lighting
needs to be adjusted less it looks unnatural, this
can be done by using additional lighting or by
changing the settings on the camera.
Sound
The same kind of problem appears with sound as with
lighting as you move the camera, the actors of
objects making the sound become further or closer or
farther away. This mean that the sound will be louder
or quieter and again ruin the feel of production,
this can be solved by using an extendable boom mic or
by dubbing over the sound latter.
Building a scene
Producers usual build single camera production scenes
in small locations eg a house because it easy to
control an example of this is outnumbered which is
almost entirely filmed in a small suburban house they
do this because in a small space it is more easy to
control lighting and sound and prevent the problems
