The reason that this type of font interested me was because of the urban form of the font. Also the font consists of confusion which can be implicated to our production genre theme.

This type of font displays the isolation form of the font and a lost effect to the form.

The Final Act

Times New Roman font is suitable to use for our trailer as it is a serif font which means each letter has pointy corners which connotes realism but also being serious. This can be related to our trailer as child abuse is a serious issue that goes on in real life, as it is a British trailer it uses realistic facts and the movie is more realistic therefore this font can connote that.

The Final Act

Bradley Hand ITC is also suitable to use for our trailer as it reflects the trailers theme which is child abuse, therefore as a person that is being abused has mixed emotions in them which this font can relate to. This font can also relate to that how the teenager life is which is all over place is confused and does not know what to do and is struggling their way out.

The final act

Broadway font could be used for our trailer as each letter has its own shape from think to a shin shape signifies controversial issues that is hard to handle. It also shows loss of innocence due to the child abuse as each letter at end becomes thinner, at the same time it shows loss of confidence as each letter becomes thinner because it means the protagonists looses its confidence due to this issue.

Photo Footage, Location Shots - Jason Saab

This is a picture of Nida. It shows her shown as normal and quite a happy character. Nida is playing the role of the main character in this movie trailer.

This is another shot of Nida. However, in this shot it shows Nida as feeling upset and self consious. You can tell from the photo that somethjhing has happened by her posture in the photo.

This is another shot of Nida. I think this shot is very effective because you can tell alot from this photo. Nida is looking down towards the ground as if she is trying to hhide from everyone around her. She is grabbing her hair as if she is scared or worried about something, or as if she is in danger.

This is a photo shot of My bedroom mirrors. The reason i have taken this shot is because throughout the trailer, Nida is going to feel frustrated and is going to be looking in these mirrors quite often.

This is a shot of my bed. Throughout this movie trailer, most of the filiming is going to be done in my house. So my room is going to be Nidas room in this movie trailer.

This is a shot of my window in my bredroom. Its a strange photo but the reason i have taken a picture of this is because, there might be a few shots with Nida looking out her window as if she is trying to get attention for help or because she feels issolated in her room.

This is a photo of my main living room. I have taken this shot because, there is going to be a few scenes with all the family in this trailer together acting as if they are "one happy family".

This is a photo of my bar. I have taken this photo because there is going to be a few shots of the step-dad drinking alcohol as a sign of depression.

This a photo shot of a few bottles of alcohol. This is effective as it shows that the step-dad is over drinking and is not setting the correct example for his step-daughter.

This is a shot of the dining table. I have taken a picture of this because all the eating is going to be on this table, even some of the alcohol drinking is going to be shot on this table.

This is a picture of the rest of the kitchen. I have taken this shot becayse some of the violence/action is going to be shot in this kitchen.
