and I am thinking about the Pes animation particularly the hot dog one how that is a little story with a point to it very quick very very short sharp shock combination of collage and Ken Burns zooming in and live action a shot to set the scene you begin to think one thing but it builds the story up then at the end you get the crisis point where the whole film changes absolutely perfect and it is a bit like telling a joke so if you think about this in terms of narrative think of it as telling stories where you set the scene give a bit of information so that you viewer gradually begins to get story then it tells you something at the end that makes sense of the rest of it almost the more you can build it up the more that moment of catharsis happens but then it does not have to be like that it could be just like abstract art I could be pure pattern you could be working with daisies making patterns in the garden it could be painterly it could be pure abstract or it could have some sort of function like a tour through the school where you are trying to tell something specific to someone or it could be collections like looking for all the signposts in school or all the doorways you could do a collection of images like that and put then together so it doesn't have to be a story or a narrative it could be to do with pattern or it could be sort of arty or abstract like the famous Warhol where he just had a fixed camera on the empire state building for 24 hours and people actually sat and watched this as art only heaven knows why.
