Narrative

The one thing that I would like to talk about in this blogger is the concept of "A movie does not start it begins." 


I find this interesting because it goes back to the continuity of scenes.  There has to be a natural flow for the viewer in order for him/her to enjoy what they are watching without getting confused. 


The idea of a movie having a beginning establishes in the viewers mind a developing story.  The art of this idea is that it captures the attention of the viewer as well as it creates suspense through out the film leading the viewer to want more of the story and to anxious for the ending.


For some reason this reminds me of a clock - not really sure why.  Maybe because time is a story, one that we all share to some degree.
