14. Occurs when the audience knows something that the characters in the story, on the screen, or on the stage do not know. The audience is more aware of what’s going on than the people in the production. This is used to engage the audience and keep them actively involved in the storyline.

Examples: ***DRAMATIC*** In Toy Story, human characters are not aware that the toys speak and move while the audience is aware.

15. The feeling or atmosphere that a writer creates for the reader. Descriptive words, imagery and figurative language contribute to the mood ***MOOD*** Doris Lessing builds a suspenseful and anxious mood as Jerry is swimming through the tunnel.
