Our film does conform to the classic narrative pattern, but the difference is that our opening begins with an initial disruption to spark the storyline for the rest of the film.
FILM OVERVIEW ACCORDING TO TODOROV'S THEORY:• Equilibrium: Before Matt is captured/Father does not know Matt is captured.
• Disruption: Matt is captured/taken hostage.
• Resolution: Father finds and saves Matt.
In terms of the narrative structure of our opening sequence, our sequence is shot in real time with no flashbacks or flash forwards.
Both our main characters can be placed into Propp's theory very easily as they are both very conventional characters from the action-thriller genre:
Matthew Lockwood - Hero
The 'Bad Guy' - Villain
As many film opening sequences do, we have included many enigma codes in our sequence such as not giving any details about either of the two characters.
