- 'Tableau' or 'Tableau Vivant'
'Tableau' is the type of narrative in which is told through one image.
'Tableau Vivant' is actually a French phrase for 'Living Picture' and the usual occurrences apply to represent parties or gatherings in the 18th/19th Century. Today's photographic images usually consist of models/actors dressing up, using props, backgrounds and attempts of re-staging some of the most iconic imagery.
- 'Linear Narrative' or 'Non - Linear Narrative'
This structure is like the common story book with a beginning, middle then end. This is developmental in a passage of time, as time moves, so does the story. During films, parallel stories can run showing the same time-frame for the different characters.
'Non - Linear' structures are similar, except the screenwriter decides the narrative like a jigsaw puzzle. They control the information that the audience receives when, how and in a specific order to keep the suspense.
- 'Circular Narrative'
To put it simply, a 'Circular Narrative' is a structure of a story in which ends where it began. The traditional plot is the exposition, rising action, climax, falling action and resolution.
