Theory's


·         Todorovs Theory

     Todorov’s theory is that every film follows the same structure and that there are different parts to every film, which are: 

  •          equilibrium (harmony)
  •          disruption
  •          recognition
  •          repair
  •          new equilibrium

·         Propps Theory

    Propp’s theory is that there are five main characters in every film which are:

  •       hero
  •       villain
  •       mentor
  •       helper 
  •       princess
      For our thriller we can apply Propps Theory to our narrative. If we were to shoot the whole film, this is how it would go:
     
  •       Hero- Detectives
  •       Villain- Serial killer
  •       Mentor- Serial killers brain/mind 
  •       Helper-Forensic scientists 
  •       Princess- Victim
