FS103 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Kissing Booth, Pineapple Express
Document Summary
Key element for screening notes: look for camera angles. Syuzhet: the selection an ordering of the actions explicitly presenting on screen (69). Fabula: the chronological narrative in its entirety, that implicitly stands behinds the events depicted (69). *example: the fading out screen when a character is having sex. They then wake up beside each other the next day indicating what they did. Act one: exposition, set up and introduction of the protagonist. Act two: complications, problems arise, often caused by the antagonist. Act three: actions leading to the solution and the denouement, or results. Often used to tie up all lose ends, all problems solved: a film may provide closure (problems solved ie: lion king) or be open ended (problems not solved, ie: inception). Act1: expositions: there"s a line-up for the kissing booth: turning point: realize there are two girls to choose from. Act2: boy had to choose between two girls: climax: when the boy kisses the other girl.
