Film has displaced the novel as the twentieth century’s most popular narrative form. Yet increasingly, there is a convergence of these two art forms in the sense that major motion picture studios are adapting bestsellers and writers are writing in ways that offer easy adaptation for filmmakers. Furthermore, the novelists are also getting involved in the pre-production of the movie by developing the screenplay of their novels.
This project is an attempt to understand key narrative functions and how the medium of film can be utilised to enunciate the emotion represented through words in the Novel into Visuals that speak to the audience.
