Technology and Narrative: A Study on the narrative structure and Rhythm of network mini-plays

摘要: With the development of intelligent information technology, short video keeps developing, and micro-short drama comes into being, which even has a certain impact on the TV drama market. In the post-epidemic era, with the gradual recovery of the economy and the gradual acceleration of people's pace of life as the background, this paper uses questionnaire survey and interview as the main research methods, supplemented by "Propp's narrative theory" to carry out a detailed study on "the internal factors of the impact of miniseries on the TV series market", "the relationship between the two", "how to better develop the TV series and miniseries". Through research, we find that the reason why "micro short drama" can have an impact on the TV drama market is that it greatly reduces the duration and speeds up the pace, in line with the current fast pace of life, under the condition that it also has a complete narrative structure. At the same time, it is found that there is no mutual substitution between the two, but mutual promotion relationship.
