MEMENTO: NARRATIVE AND POSTMODERNISM

We are looking at Memento as a way of going back over the very complex theoretical ideas that we covered in our overview of POSTMODERNISM. As such, for this film you will need to refer to NARRATIVE (essentially how narratives are structured) and POSTMODERNISM (a way of thinking about some of themes that are in this film). You may also want to refer to The Language of Moving Image, which will enable to think about how moving images are put together. This will help with your CSP’s on music video, TV, Film, radio, maybeline advert etc.

ONCE AGAIN PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A CSP, BUT YOU CAN REFER TO IT IN YOUR EXAM IF YOU ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE A LEVEL OF ANALYSIS AND STUDY (AND NOT JUST A CASUAL, SURFACE, POSTMODERN-STYLE, REFERENCE)

AS SUCH SPEND THE FIRST LESSON THIS WEEK GOING BACK OVER 1) NARRATIVE, 2) THE LANGUAGE OF MOVING IMAGE AND 3) POSTMODERNISM
