Different theorist ideas & Applying some of these theories

Fiske 1987-A code of realistic camera work, cinematography is the shaky camera. The stable camera (mounted on a tripod/dolly) disappear from the audiences deception. Shaky handheld camera is realist because of intertextuality with home movies, news footage and fly on the wall documentaries. Stable camera is high budget drama therefore unrealistic.

Derrida 1981-Jacques Derrida proposed that a text cannot belong to no genre, it cannot be without a genre. Every text participates in one or several genres, there is no genreless text.

Levi strauss developed the concept of bricolege. he saw any text as constucted out of socially recognisable "debris" from other texts. He saw that writers construct texts from other texts by a process of:
-Addition
-Deletion
-Substitution
-Transpostion
