NARRATIVE COMPLEXITY IN 30-MINUTE DIGITALLY DISTRIBUTED TV SERIES. Authors: IONUŢ PAUL BOCA. |
||||||
Abstract: The rise of VoD services on the media market has produced key mutations in the television series industry at all levels. The dynamics of the tripartite relation between production, distribution and consumption gains new ground when a series of digital media distribution portals break the traditional linearity of television and adopt the aesthetics of media catalogs that users can access whenever and wherever they want. This new form of distribution allows the development of complex narrative structures, which were difficult to put into practice in traditional television, a medium whose evolution was defined by its own time constraints. This paper explores the main narrative features of 30-minute series distributed by Video-on-Demand (VoD) portals over the past five years and explores the narrative differences between linear and digital shows, with a special focus on Netflix original productions. Keywords: Netflix, TV series, comedy series, sitcom, narrrative structures, narrative complexity, streaming, media serialization |
