N A R R A T W I S T - Alteration in meaning in a short film text

NARRATWIST is the written component accompanying an MA thesis project that combines image, sound, and narrative. It uses these elements to employ a twist as a device for a paradigm and genre shift in a short film text. The short film, titled 'In The Name of Art', introduces a plot that is seemingly linear. Yet, the twist presents a piece of information that reveals the actual non-linear nature of the story, which in turn necessitates the re-interpretation of the plot. The aim of this project is to explore how a twist in a narrative-based short film can alter the cues and perceptions the audience receive from the plot.
