Task 3-  Individually Be able to develop responses to media products Narrative Theory Narrative theory is the theory of telling a story through narrative. This can be done in many different ways such as documentary, characters, action in dramas and also role plays. Narrative can be portrayed in many differing ways through whatever genre is being represented. An example of this would be romance. A character in a romantic drama would most likely loved up and the music used would stereotypically be romantic music. Another example of narrative would be voice overs.

Issues: Accuracy: Accuracy within any documentary is very important, this is because after all what you are producing should be factually correct, However some documentaries have been produced inaccuracy to suit a certain opinion or belief.

The edit is roughly 1 and half minutes long and shines a really positive light on the artisan in my opinion.

However over the last 10 to 15 the internet has found a home for websites to share videos that can be seen from all over the world. Websites such as YouTube or even Facebook are great ways to share videos with people. The birth of internet video sharing has allowed almost anyone to share whatever they like to an audience which 15 years ago was almost unheard of. This has given anyone with a camera and internet access a platform to entertain and also make money through ad revenue. As Im already venturing along the lines of entertainment platforms such as YouTube it
