Todorov's Theory

This leads to an attempt to repair the disturbed equilibrium so that everything becomes balances again. Finally, the equilibrium is fully restored and everything is back to where it began.

Group choices and explanation

However, I am a little worried about this course. This is because it may be difficult to create a music video that suits the songs I would like to use. With there being such a wide variety of song choices, I feel that a strict narrative may be hard to think of and achieve. Also, I am concerned about this course as I have never done anything like this before, as I have to create a digipak as ...
