Flashbacks

For our film trailer, we have decided to incorporate a flashback because we wanted the audience to experience both the past and present of the girls life. We have looked at trailers that include flashbacks as we wanted to analyse how they show the flashback, and also the type of shots that they use.  We concentrated on film trailers in general instead of our genre social realism.  We felt it would give us a broader idea of how flashbacks are incorporated within different types of genres, and then decide what the best way would be for us to include our flashback.  Below are some examples of trailers that we looked at which have flashbacks in them.
