Diary Post 2: Why Social Realism?

I chose to create a film trailer within the social realism genre because I think that it is something I can recreate effectively and authentically . Throughout the process of finding a narrative of my film I will try and research or think of scenarios that occur society and see how they affect people in everyday life.To further brainstorm on the topic, I think I could create a mood board to get more ideas flowing. This will therefore allow people to identify with the film to a deeper, personal level as the chosen theme within their subject may be something they have gone through themselves.
While researching and thinking of ideas I could also look at films within the social realism genre that have done quite well. Some of these films include: This is England, Kidulthood, Adulthood, Shank, Fishtank, and Catfish.
