Catfish Documentary

In lesson, we watched a film documentary called 'Catfish' by Henry Boost & Ariel Schulman.

I enjoyed the documentary because it was different from the other documentaries I've seen. I also liked the documentary as I found it interesting how people can create false Facebook accounts 

Here are some interesting screen grabs from the documentary:
Nev opening a package from Abby 

Nev and his friend investigating Abby's family on Facebook

Nev, his brother and his friend traveling to Abby's family




Here is the trailer (embedded):


Some forms and conventions in the documentary are:
1.Use of handheld camera to create realism
2. Voiceovers with cutaways
3. Credits on screen to identify people's names
4. Interviews
5. Quoted material
