Analyse ways in which ways “Alt J, breezeblocks” challenges traditional narrative structures.

New & improved Initial ideas for performance aspect of the narrative

A narrative device that I plan to use within my music video is “different diegetic planes” this is device comes into my video because of the flashback and memory scenes. Which create two levels of reality (past and present) forming two layers within the music video. The opening of music video features the filming technique of the enigma code as the audience are unaware of where the boy is travelling too, until they realise that he is a part of the band which is performing. The result of the enigma is shown by the help of the symbolic device of the bike which illustrates the method of travel in order to get him to where he needs to be. The Drum sticks symbolise creativity and expression to represent that the character is a drummer. The object also works as the proairectic code, a way to drive the narrative onto the performance .

The result of the enigma is shown by the help of the symbolic device of the drum sticks and the bike, as these symbolise that the boy is a drummer, therefore is likely to be in band that is about to perform. Whilst the bike illustrates the method of travel in order to get him to where he needs to be.
