Script

After researching other films under the social realism genre we realized that there was a large variation on the amount of language used in the trailers that we looked at. Our main influence throughout our whole project was the film “Gimme Shelter”. Although we took many ideas from the trailer itself, we did not follow their ideas about the amount of language they used. We wanted our trailer to be very visual throughout as well as the main focus of the audience to solely be on the story of our protagonist, as we need to make sure that they feel sympathy towards her. This is why we only include one piece of dialogue in our trailer at the very beginning. This shot is off our antagonist saying “That’s about right” as he adjusts the camera. We felt it would be a good place to put this part as we needed it to be clear from the beginning that he is trying to film our protagonist.
