We have decided to do them similar to the way they do it on the TV show Catfish. We have decided to this this style in the creation of our teaser trailer for our film ‘Inside My Reality’. We will use these shots to display the daily cyber-bullying messages and abuse our main character Katie gets through social networking sites such as Facebook. These messages will say things such as: UR A WASTE OF SPACE, GO DIE, U WEIRDO, FREAK, KILL YOURSELF, EVERYBODY H8S U, ect. We have chosen to use slang/abbreviated words to reflect the way youth often speak on social networking. We’ll have the messages flash up quickly on the screen, one after the other. By doing this we’re aiming to make the audience feel overwhelmed and distressed, just like our main character, because they feel like it is them receiving and reading these messages, because they are so close to the text. This flood of negative language will be accompanied by the loud Facebook inbox pop-up sound. Below is a rough example of how this montage would look(without the sound):

Using Extreme Close-ups In Our Production
Earlier on in my blog I referred to the fact that we would use extreme close ups of messages/texts to display emotive language and highlight the fact that our main character is abused over the internet. Click here to visit my previous post

Despite the fact the shots look of poor quality(we tried filming on several devices, phone and cameras and they all turned out the same), we liked the look because it looks as though it is being read through tears or blurred emotions and emphasises the power and impact that the messages has on the person reading them. The montage above show a variety of different shots and we aim to use them all in our final production.
