[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 5173685, member: 54846"] Except that other forms of media exist, and are explained, by other forms of Media. What's a play? A book, but instead of words on a page, it's people reading them aloud and acting the part of the characters. What's a movie? A play recorded and played back on a screen. What's a TV show? A shorter form of a movie, with a story told in smaller increments. What's a comic book? It's like a book, but instead of words being the method the story is told, it is picture based, with dialog in word form. And lots of things about these forms of media can be said about other forms of media. The type of blocking and behavior in a play can correspond with what would work for a movie, for instance. And some things about them [i]cannot[/i] be said. A Good Movie may not be a Good Book (and vice versa), because the mediums focus on slightly different things. What works for a TV show may not work for a Movie because the TV show has longer time to develop characters, but the movie has a larger budget and must focus on the key points. [/QUOTE]
