Dear Moderator, My name is Lily Warrington Candidate No. 1732 , welcome to my A Level Media Studies blog.

They used drum machines to create electronic rhythms and synthesizers with keyboards to add chords and melodies. Another style that developed in the 90s is drum and bass (or "DnB").

Evaluate the relevance of Todorov's theory of narratology to long form TV drama

Todorov’s theory of narratology is extremely useful in analysing the narrative of long form television drama. However, Todorov’s theory was drawn from fairy tales and is not designed to explain serial narratives like long form dramas with complex narratives, several different narrative strands and the segmented storylines of long form dramas.   Todorov’s theory is useful in stranger thing. His theory is very simple and widely used though out the generations. Its possible to identify his key elements of his narrative theory in long form TV drama. Todorov’s theory is very useful in teasing out messaging and values underlying a narrative, in pointing to the significance of the transformation between the final equilibrium displayed and the new equilibrium. However, at the same time Todorov’s theory is not useful in Stanger things. The simplicity of Todorov’s theory might limit its effectiveness in understanding complex narratives. While it works perfectly for the typical D...
