In visual communication, including the production of television shows intended for entertainment, stories are mapped using storyboards. Exceptions to this would include programs such as documentaries–made more to inform than to entertain. The story that will become the television show is told in words and pictures, first. In fact, each episode of television shows is storyboarded very early in its development. It is not difficult to watch a television show and easily see the way in which the program was organized. This is the general way in which entertainment productions were made.Even movies were built around this paradigm. In fact, movies used to be called three-reelers. The first reel included the setup; the second included the conflict, and the final reel included the resolution to the conflict. This is the basic paradigm for entertainment television programs. Commercial breaks came in between the three stages, although today, commercials are more dominant. Exceptions to this paradigm might include, most recently, what is called today reality TV.Choose a television program that was created for entertainment. A thirty- minute show might be best. If possible, record the show and watch it more than once, looking for the paradigm. Write down your observations–take some notes. Once you uncover the paradigm, submit a 3-5 page essay in formal, APA essay style, to share your findings.Be sure to tell the name of the show, the date and time it aired originally (if possible), and your opinion of the audience for whom the show was intended. Include these first items in an introduction explaining the paradigm and then create paragraphs on each of the three acts and what you uncovered. Then, write an appropriate conclusion which summarizes your points
