structuralism 
1. Symbolic -
 Human are in the middle of reality and and ideas and the make sense of them both.
Used to distinguish betweeen the real and the imaginary. 
The relationship between idea and reaility express the transcendent point of the real and the imaginary in to pentrating unite. For example Plato's analogy of the cave the humans are symbolic as they are between reality and imagery.

2- Local or Positional  -
 So how we interpret symbol change.
on one side we have reality. structure of interrelated positions. Structure of inter-related positions of roles which constantly reflecting each other creating each time different possible scenarios

3- Difference - 
Humans are senstive to change
    in our lives we often experience
  • Pattern
  • Discrepency 
  • Border- Is their relation to difference  
  4-The status of structures- 
Ideal but not abstract.
Structures are real but not actual ideal without being abstract. For example money, money instrically has no value but because of  economic structure it has value.
5 Different structures- 

Different systems to contain / overlap and reflect each other. For examples different soap operas are different but have similar plot.

6- Codes 
a code us an institutionally  stabilised structure
An emptyposition that keeps relocating can drive narratives
Defines the driving force of structures 
It allows them to be dynamic and evolve.

 7. Humans interact with the structure and constantly reorganise.
Intersubjective 
The possibilities depends on us humans not the structure and there are limits to what our possibilities are due to this. There is an empty square that is filled with possibilities.

Is Riptide Postmodern

Polysemic readings - metaphorical readings, the splitting ice cream could be symbolic of a broken relationship. Therefore the cheery mise en scene presents a creepy and troubling binary opposition Horror film conventions - stereotypically attractive 'horror film victim' breaks free from being tied to a tree. Connotative of kidnapping and a violent threat.

Extremely strong link between lyrical content and on screen visuals - an explicit description, perhaps a binary opposition between a conventional and subversive music video On the word 'riptide' a L/S high angle establishing shot of the sea, connoting danger and death A montage of C/Us of everyday items establishes to the audience themes of travel and solidify the overarching theme of escapism Mixture...
