Markers

A marker is a media language choice which provides information to audiences quickly and economically. This is key to all types of media text, but is essential in short films.

Markers provide information about:

-Location (geographical marker)
-The time or era the text is set in (temporal or historical marker)
-Genre of the text (generic marker)
-Information about the characters (character marker)
