Kate Domaille created her theory in 2001 that every story ever told can be appointed into to one of eight catagories.Each of these narative types has a sourse,which is an orginal story upon which others are based.Here below are a lis tof the 8 catogaries:
1. Achilles-The fatal flaw that leads to the destruction of the previously flawless/invisiable person
2. Candide- The hero who cannot be put down
3. Cinderella-The dream becomes true
4. Circe- The chase,The innocant and the victim
5. Faust- Selling your soul to the devil may bring riches,but eventually your suol belongs to him
6. Orpheus- The loss of something personal,the gift that is taken away,the tradgey of loss,the journey that follows a loss
7. Romeo and Juliette- The love story
8. Tristan and Iseult- The love triangle
She belives that evry story will always link back into one of these catogaries despite if its a new idea.Personally i really likeehr theory.I feel although simple it bears very true.Upon finding this theory i started to have a look and even think myself of a story randomally in my head.I found every time,each story i thought of,or saw all linked into one of her catogeries,it almost seemed impossible to think of an idea that didn't.As i am doing a muisc video rather than a film her theory wont 100% apply to me,however elements of Romeo&Juliette and Cinderella are apprent within my video.Each music video tends to have anarrative their selfs,ad even them fit into one of KateD omailes catogaries.
