How does asides work in conjunction with dramatic irony?

English

Dramatic Irony is irony based on you knowing something the characters don't know. If you've ever seen a horror movie, or a Nicholas Sparks romantic drama, you know what I'm talking about. Examples would be knowing that the blonde character is about to open the door to the room that Jason is waiting in, or the husband coming home to see his wife when we clearly know she remarried while he was off.

So, asides are the main way a storyteller is able to communicate dramatic irony for tension, weather it be dramatic or comedic. Lets go back to the Friday the 13th analogy. The main story involves the teenagers at camp Crystal Lake. So while we'll have a scene fleshing out their characters in the dining room, we'll cut away to an "aside", or scene/plotline that's not directly related to the main plot, of Jason crawling in the window to the bathroom. We then cut back to the main shot, where the blonde character says she needs to relieve herself. Everybody laughs, and as she walks away, we see Jason inching towards the door with machete in hand. The side-plot, or "asides" of Jason getting in the room, builds the dramatic irony of us knowing the blonde is going to die, but the characters don't know that yet as the asides were out of their realm of perspective.

I hope this helps!

BlackZzzverrR [31]
If a bar of copper is brought near a magnet, the copper bar will be repelled by the magnet (B). Copper itself is not magnetic, but it sets up electric currents when a magnet is brought close to a bar of copper. These electric eddy currents push the magnet away from the copper bar. Magnetism and electricity are related and the interaction between the copper and a magnet is used in power plants to generate the electricity that we use every day.

Please help me with reading theory
xeze [42]

Answer:

to make a comparison to something all readers can understand

Explanation:

The user mentions the color red in order to make a comparison to something all readers can understand. Everyone has been taught colors from an early age. The reader is using this expected general understanding of the color red to compare to the logic and principles of geometry. Stating that what we are taught as a principle is what it is because we are taught that way and no other reason. The author uses the color red because in the same way as lines in geometry, we have been taught what red is and what it looks like.
