10. Parts 2 : Types of narrative
Undertake research to develop an understanding of narrative structures: such as linear (or sequential), non-linear (or non-sequential), flashback, realist, anti-realist and endings such as open or closed.

11. Linear ( ordered structure, start, middle, end)
A narrative is a story that includes plot, characters, setting, climax and resolution. Linear narratives present stories in a logical manner by telling what happens from one point in time to the next without using flashbacks or flash-forwards and then returning to the present.

12. non-linear ( no exact order)
Nonlinear Narratives. In contrast to linear narratives, nonlinear narratives are those in which the author has chosen to jump around in time, and the order in which events are portrayed does not correspond to the order in which things happened. These might also be referred to as disrupted or disjointed narratives

13. flashback
A flashback is an interjected scene that takes the narrative back in time from the current point in the story. Flashbacks are often used to recount events that happened before the story's primary sequence of events to fill in crucial backstory.

14. Realist
In film history, realism has designated two distinct modes of filmmaking and two approaches to the cinematographic image. In the first instance, cinematic realism refers to the verisimilitude of a film to the believability of its characters and events. This realism is most evident in the classical Hollywood cinema.

15. anti-realist
In analytic philosophy, anti-realism is an epistemological position first articulated by British philosopher Michael Dummett. The term was coined as an argument against a form of realism Dummett saw as 'colorless reductionism'.... In anti-realism, this external reality is hypothetical and is not assumed.

16. Endings
Alternate ending  is a term used (usually in movies) to describe the ending of a story that was planned or debated but ultimately unused in favor of the actual ending.

17. Achilles
