5 Basic elements

(ii) Speech,
 (iii) Occasion,
(iv) Audience
(v) Effect.

Aristotle’s Communication Model
Aristotle advises speakers to build speech for different audience on different time (occasion) and for different effects.

Analysis audience needs before he enters into the stage.

    hey, I was wondering could this theory also be applied to a linear film? I mean, speaker = narrative agent, speech = narrative device, occasion = scene, audience = audience, and effect = emotional response. just a theory but an interesting thought? any thoughts? - Tristan.
