Types of Narrative Structures
There are 4 different types of which a Narrative can progress:
- Single-Stranded
Single Stranded Narratives solely follow one character's
perspective and focus on their actions as the events occurring around
them unfold. For example, in Film like Superman or a First Person
Shooter video-game like Call of Duty.
- Multi-Stranded
Multi-Stranded story line's follow the events of
multiple characters in many settings; they often portray varied
circumstances which may appeal to a wider audience range. For instance,
soap opera's like Coronation Street depict many different types of
characters with differences in age, gender, race and religion etc. This
involves the audience a bit more as well, where we as the viewer know
what will happen when two characters meet or enter a situation and we
urge for that event to happen or not happen. For example, in a horror
where follow the victim and the killer, the audience knows what will
happen when the victim enters a room where the killer is hiding.
- Linear
This means the story will run in chronological order, where
you follow events as time progresses. Video Games generally use this
structure, where you may play a character who has to complete a mission;
such as in a Halo game.
- Non-Linear
