Wikipedia
A sequel is a narrative, documental, or other work of literature, film, theatre, television, music, or video game that continues the story of, or expands upon, some earlier work. In the common context of a narrative work of fiction, a sequel portrays events set in the same fictional universe as an earlier work, usually chronologically following the events of that work.
In many cases, the sequel continues elements of the original story, often with the same characters and settings. A sequel can lead to a series, in which key elements appear in a number of stories. Although the difference between more than one sequel and a series is somewhat arbitrary, it is clear that some media franchises have enough sequels to become a series, whether originally planned as such or not.
Sequels are attractive to creators and to publishers because there is less risk involved in returning to a story with known popularity rather than developing new and untested characters and settings. Audiences are sometimes eager for more stories about popular characters or settings, making the production of sequels financially appealing.
In movies, sequels are common. There are many name formats for sequels. Sometimes, they either have unrelated titles or have a letter added on the end. More commonly, they have numbers at the end or have an added word on the end. It is also common for a sequel to have a variation of the original title or have a subtitle. In the 1930s, many musical sequels had the year included in the title. Sometimes sequels are released with different titles in different countries, because of the perceived brand recognition. There are a number of ways that subsequent works can be related to the chronology of the original. Various neologisms have been coined to describe them.
Sequel is music sequencer software from German music software and equipment company Steinberg GmbH. It is essentially a heavily downsized and simplified version of Steinberg Cubase. It has been called a GarageBand clone as it features very similar functionality and interface as Apple's GarageBand, which itself, is a heavily downsized version of Logic Pro, a competitor with Cubase.
Sequel is the ninth studio album by the American singer/songwriter Harry Chapin, released in 1980 (see 1980 in music). It was the last complete album released during Harry's lifetime. A tenth studio album, The Last Protest Singer, made up of material he was working on at the time of his death, was released about seven years after he died.
The title song "Sequel" reports further events in the lives of Harry and Sue, the characters in Chapin's hit song " Taxi" and peaked at #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (the original went to #24). A follow-up single, "Story of a Life", failed to chart, but is historic as it was Chapin's final 45.
The album was later rereleased under the title Remember When the Music with the addition of two previously unreleased. It was rereleased with only the original ten tracks as Storyteller in 1999. It was also remastered in 2001 with four additional tracks.
A sequel is a work of fiction in literature, film, and other creative works that is produced after a completed work, and is set in the same "universe" but at a later time.
