Narrative - Trang Pham

When discussing plot and story, I have to agree that there's a very blurry line between them. However, plot and story are not things that when we look in and distinguish them, the two contribute to each other really well. Plot is almost aways more complicated and long winded than story, but without it, there's no meaning to the story, just like a guide but without directions.

In films, the angle of the camera plays a large role in setting the story as the viewers need the sense of time and space. Later on, the character and series of actions and events contribute the plot to the story. Developing a story for a film required extra attention as stated above, angles of a camera and lighting create differents emotion to the scene. Loosely use of the time and space to introduce the plot, the whole story will become vague and has no appeal to the audiences
