Open and Closed narratives
Open is where there isn't a ending which means it will carry on and on, for example soap operas such as coronation street because at the end of each programme there is never a complete stop it carries on. Then a closed narrative is where it would come to an end so for example films because they start and always have a finish.
Single-strand and Multi-strand narratives
Single-strand is where there would be only one situation such as badman and multi-strand is where there is more then one situation such as all normal soaps such as coronation street and eastenders.
Series and Serials
Series would be such programmes as Friends because they would have a start and an end which would be separated into seasons because of the structure of always having a start and an end. Serials would be soaps because they just go on and on and don't stop.
Linear and non-linear
Linear goes forward and forward such as a film as the longest yard because they have a simple beginning, middle and ending. Then a non-linear would be a drama or film because you'll know the ending maybe before the middle and an example of this would be inside men which was a drama which you knew what happened at the end but find out how they did, what they did in the duration of the film or drama.
Realism, Realist and Anti-realist
Realism is where it is internal logic to the film and the anti-realist when something goes against the films logic.
Denotation is literal understanding.
Connotation is what it means.
